How to Manage Content Formats
Content formats define the file formats supported by VIDIZMO. Each format is mapped to a media type (video, audio, image, document) which determines how VIDIZMO stores, processes, and delivers the content.
NOTE: This feature is available for on-premise deployments only. For cloud deployments, contact VIDIZMO support.
