PIPELINE MEDIA PROCESSING IN FLIPFACTORY
When you configure a factory to transcode media from a Pipeline, the factory can produce a TIFO file (by
adding a Duplicate Original product in the factory) and one additional product of any other type (a Windows
Media or QuickTime product in the factory, for example) in a single pass.
You can produce two products in a single pass, provided that one of the products is a Duplicate Original,
which produces a TIFO file when the ingested media is streamed from a Pipeline. For this reason,
Telestream recommends producing a TIFO file if you need to produce more than one other file, because it
will require only a single streaming pass of the media.
You can not produce two products in a single pass of the streaming media from the Pipeline unless one of
the products is a Duplicate Original. Producing two products, neither of which is a Duplicate Original TIFO
file, results in two passes of the media – it requires a single pass of the file for each product.
After producing a TIFO file from a Pipeline using a Duplicate Original factory, you can automatically
forward the TIFO file to a second factory which you configure to produce as many products as necessary
for your workflow. Or, you can manually submit a TIFO file at any time for transcoding in factories you
create to meet your workflow requirements.
