Microsoft Azure Media Services

Looking for a freelancer to manage video content on Microsoft Azure Media Services. Specifically, I require video-on-demand capabilities and need support for a specific video format or codec that falls under the "Other" category. Ideal skills and experience for this job would include:

- Familiarity with Microsoft Azure Media Services
- Experience in managing video content
- Knowledge of various video formats and codecs
- Ability to troubleshoot and resolve any issues related to video management and delivery on Microsoft Azure Media Services.


• Encoding the Video
◦ Azure Media Services encoder will be used to encode the input video into an output file that is less than 200 MB in size.
◦ The encoding will use a fixed bitrate instead of an adaptive bitrate to make sure we get the best use out of the Azure CDN endpoint.
◦ Once the video is encoded, the Azure Media Streaming endpoint is used to expose the encoded video to the users.
◦ Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) is used in front of the Azure Media Streaming endpoint to cache the video content for fast delivery and save bandwidth costs incurred if the videos were directly exposed from Azure.
◦ Azure Media Player will be used along with media encryption to securely deliver the video
◦ The video should not be downloadable

All API should be written in PHP, (preferably Codeigniter Framework)
