Technical characteristics

Pre-converted content simply refers to any pre-existing source file which does not frequently change. It can be transcoded before it is published on a website or on the very moment when a user requests the download. This content class is most suitable for transcoding content that does not frequently change on a website.

Real Time refers to content that is an already existing file but which is part of a CMS (Content Management System) or similar system. It is always transcoded in real time at the moment a user requests a download to the mobile phone. This content class is most suitable for transcoding bulk content.

Real Time Dynamic refers to content that is generated on-demand (ex. route planner map). It is always transcoded in real time at the moment a user requests a download to the mobile phone. The website needs to provide the parameters with which this specific content was generated.
