The big thing that's tripping us up with using Elastic Transcoder is that there's no way to see how much billed time each encoding job took. We factor our encoding time in to what we bill our customers.
They've been iterating quickly and we're so close to being able to use this, but the billing thing is a big hurdle for us.

- dsayed 13y agoAmazon Elastic Transcoder provides the video duration for transcoded jobs through the API and the AWS Management Console. See https://forums.aws.amazon.com/ann.jspa?annID=1958 https://forums.aws.amazon.com/ann.jspa?annID=1958 for more info.

- gtaylor 13y agoAs an addendum for everyone else, the ET team has been super helpful, and is much more active in their support forums than most of the other AWS teams. These guys seem eager to earn your business, and have iterated quickly. Big thanks goes to them for moving fast, getting involved, and acting [quickly] on user feedback.
