How Is Transcoding Billed?
Updated on 2024-08-07 GMT+08:00
- If a transcoding template is configured, live streams are transcoded when being pushed, and the transcoding fee is generated. The fee is calculated based on the actual encoding standard, resolution, and duration of transcoding. The duration is rounded off to two decimal places.
- If multiple output specifications are configured, you will pay for multiple outputs. The transcoding duration is the time used to push a stream, not the total time the stream is played. The transcoding is billed once even when multiple users watch a same stream at the same bitrate. For details, see .
