Re: convert all video formats to .wmv in C#

Hi Newbie06,

We need to use the Expression Encoder API to encode the upload video files. 

  1: using (LiveJob job = new LiveJob())

   2:            {

   3:                // Create a new file source from the file name we were passed in

   4:                LiveFileSource fileSource = job.AddFileSource(fileToEncode);

   5:  

   6:                fileSource.PlaybackMode = FileSourcePlaybackMode.Loop;

   7:  

   8:                //Alternatively, enumerate a capture device (not shown here)

   9:  

  10:                job.ActivateSource(fileSource);

  11:  

  12:                WindowsMediaBroadcastOutputFormat outputFormat = new WindowsMediaBroadcastOutputFormat();

  13:  

  14:                // Let's broadcast on the local machine on port 8080

  15:                outputFormat.BroadcastPort = 8080;

  16:  

  17:                // Set the output format on the job

  18:                job.OutputFormat = outputFormat;

  19:  

  20:                // Start encoding

  21:                Console.Out.Write("Press 'x' to stop encoding...");

  22:                job.StartEncoding();

  23:  

  24:                while (Console.ReadKey(true).Key != ConsoleKey.X)

  25:                {

  26:                    // We are waiting for the 'x' key

  27:                }

  28:  

  29:                // Stop our encoding

  30:                Console.Out.WriteLine("Encoding stopped.");

  31:                job.StopEncoding();

  32:            }
