How to serve videos in multiple qualities

9 June 2014 / Martin / Leave a Comment

This feature works for multiple video formats, playlists and Amazon S3 download protected URLs as well.  We recommend that you

For the near feature we want to detect mobile user agents, detect full screen and switch the quality automatically based on that.
