We look forward to welcoming you at IBC2025, which will take place 12-15 September 2025.

IBC 2025 - International Broadcasting Convention

Automatic creation of subtitles by transcribing the audio track.
Values:
- disable – Do not transcribe.
- auto – Automatically detects the activation of the option based on the settings in your account. If generation is activated, then automatic language detection while transcribing.
- \ – Transcribe from specific language. Can be used to specify the exact language spoken in the audio track, or when auto language detection fails. Language is set by 3-letter language code according to ISO-639-2 (bibliographic code). List of languages is available in ```audio_language``` attribute of API POST /streaming/ai/transcribe .
Example:
```
`auto_transcribe_audio_language`: "auto"
`auto_transcribe_audio_language`: "ger"
```
More details:
- List of AI tasks – API [GET /streaming/ai/tasks](https://api.gcore.com/docs/streaming/docs/api-reference/streaming/ai/get-ai-task-result)
- Add subtitles to an exist video – API [POST /streaming/videos/{`video_id`}/subtitles](https://api.gcore.com/docs/streaming/docs/api-reference/streaming/subtitles/add-subtitle).

Automatic translation of auto-transcribed subtitles to the specified language(s). Can be used both together with ```auto_transcribe_audio_language``` option only.
Use it when you want to make automatic subtitles in languages other than the original language in audio.
Values:
- disable – Do not translate.
- default – There are 3 default languages: eng,fre,ger
- \ – Explicit language to translate to, or list of languages separated by a comma. Look at list of available languages in description of AI ASR task creation.
If several languages are specified for translation, a separate subtitle will be generated for each language.
Example:
```
`auto_translate_subtitles_language`: default
`auto_translate_subtitles_language`: eng,fre,ger
```
  
Please note that subtitle translation is done separately and after transcription. Thus separate AI-tasks are created for translation.

Custom field where you can specify user ID in your system

The length of the trimmed segment to transcode, instead of the entire length of the video. Is only used in conjunction with specifying the start of a segment. Transcoding duration is a number in seconds.

If you want to transcode only a trimmed segment of a video instead of entire length if the video, then you can provide timecodes of starting point and duration of a segment to process. Start encoding from is a number in seconds.

Deprecated.
Custom URL of IFrame for video player to be used in share panel in
player. Auto generated IFrame URL provided by default

Video details; not visible to the end-users

ID of the directory where the video should be uploaded. (beta)

Authorization HTTP request header. Will be used as credentials to authenticate a request to download a file (specified in "`origin_url`" parameter) on an external server.
Syntax: ```Authorization:  ```
Examples:
- "`origin_http_headers`": "Authorization: Basic ..."
- "`origin_http_headers`": "Authorization: Bearer ..."
- "`origin_http_headers`": "Authorization: APIKey ..."
Example of usage when downloading a file from Google Drive:
```
POST https://api.gcore.com/streaming/videos
"video": {
"name": "IBC 2024 intro.mp4",
"`origin_url`": "https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/...?alt=media",
"`origin_http_headers`": "Authorization: Bearer ABC"
}
```

URL to an original file which you want to copy from external storage.
If specified, system will download the file and will use it as video source for transcoding.

Poster is your own static image which can be displayed before the video starts.
After uploading the video, the system will automatically create several screenshots (they will be stored in "screenshots" attribute) from which you can select an default screenshot.
This "poster" field is for uploading your own image. Also use attribute "`screenshot_id`" to select poster as a default screnshot.
Attribute accepts single image as base64-encoded string [(RFC 2397 – The "data" URL scheme)](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2397). In format: ```data:[];base64,```
MIME-types are image/jpeg, image/webp, and image/png and file sizes up to 1Mb.
Examples:
- ```data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AA...qf/2Q==```
- ```data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGg...ggg==```
- ```data:image/webp;base64,UklGRt.../DgAAAAA```

Priority allows you to adjust the urgency of processing some videos before others in your account, if your algorithm requires it. For example, when there are very urgent video and some regular ones that can wait in the queue.
Value range, integer [-10..10]. -10 is the lowest down-priority, 10 is the highest up-priority. Default priority is 0.

Deprecated.
Regulates the video format:

* **regular**
  — plays the video as usual
* **vr360**
  — plays the video in 360 degree mode
* **vr180** — plays the video in 180 degree
  mode
* **vr360tb** — plays the video in 3D
  360 degree mode Top-Bottom.

  
 Default is regular

Custom quality set ID for transcoding, if transcoding is required according to your conditions. Look at GET /`quality_sets` method

Poster URL to download from external resource, instead of uploading via "poster" attribute.
It has the same restrictions as "poster" attribute.

Default screenshot index.
Specify an ID from the "screenshots" array, so that the URL of the required screenshot appears in the "screenshot" attribute as the default screenshot. By default 5 static screenshots will be taken from different places in the video after transcoding. If the video is short, there may be fewer screenshots.
Counting from 0. A value of -1 sets the default screenshot to the URL of your own image from the "poster" attribute.
Look at "screenshot" attribute in GET /videos/{`video_id`} for details.

Deprecated.
Custom URL or iframe displayed in the link field when a user clicks
on a sharing button in player. If empty, the link field and social
network sharing is disabled

The option allows you to set the video transcoding rule so that the output bitrate in ABR ladder is not exceeding the bitrate of the original video.
  
This option is for advanced users only.
  
By default ```source_bitrate_limit: true``` this option allows you to have the output bitrate not more than in the original video, thus to transcode video faster and to deliver it to end-viewers faster as well. At the same time, the quality will be similar to the original.
If for some reason you need more byte-space in the output quality when encoding, you can set this option to ```source_bitrate_limit: false```. Then, when transcoding, the quality ceiling will be raised from the bitrate of the original video to the maximum possible limit specified in our the Product Documentation.
For example, this may be needed when:
- to improve the visual quality parameters using PSNR, SSIM, VMAF metrics,
- to improve the picture quality on dynamic scenes,
- etc.
The option is applied only at the video creation stage and cannot be changed later. If you want to re-transcode the video using new value, then you need to create and upload a new video only.
