The video configuration parameters are as follows:
When Encoding is selected "unaltered", only "Bit rate" and "Frame rate" inputs are needed.
When the encoding method is H.264, you need to select "Encoding Profile", "Encoding Level", "Fixed Key Frame Spacing", "Bit Rate", "Frame Rate", "Resolution", and "Aspect Ratio".
When the encoding method is H.265, you need to select "Fixed Key Frame Spacing", "Code Rate", "Frame Rate", "Resolution", and "Aspect Ratio".

2.3.2. Automatic transcoding configuration
The automatic transcoding configuration is suitable for transcoding newly uploaded files in a workflow way. Please note that the newly created automatic transcoding configuration is only valid for newly uploaded files and will not correspond to the files uploaded before the configuration is created.

Click "New configuration" to enter the page to create a new configuration.
First, create " Path rules that allow transcoding " and "Input Bucket". For "path rules that allow transcoding", you can choose to enter according to the file extension name or regular expression; when configuring the path according to the file extension, you can enter multiple extensions (use "| " between multiple extensions); Only one path can be entered.
Output configuration:
Enter the output file name prefix (it can be empty) and the output bucket. At least one output rule or video screenshot rule is required, and multiple sets of output rules and video screenshot rules can be configured.
The output rule configuration page is as follows: When the transcoding template chooses to output ts format, users need to select the HLS slice duration; for other output format only needs to fill in the transcoding template and the output file name suffix.
The configuration page for video screenshots is as follows: Require to enter "Output file name suffix", "Screenshot start time", "Screenshot interval", "Maximum number of screenshots", "Resolution" and "Aspect ratio".
Please note at least one of the “Output Rules” and “Screenshot Rules” option is required to be configured.
When the transcode module has ts file for output, users can choose whether to enable HLS self-adapt transcoding, if this service is enabled, slicing format and MasterPlayList file suffix are required.
In “More configuration” you can configure options such as “Delete origin files after transcoding,” “Keep origin file path after transcoding,” “Recall URL after failed to transcode,” “Recall URL after successfully transcoded.” Permission settings: Set permission for the output transcoding files
2.4. Key management
