1. A system that transcodes videos, the system comprising:

  • one or more physical computer processors configured by machine-readable instructions to;

    determine an initial portion of a time duration of a video for transcoding, the video including visual information defined by one or more electronic media files, the video stored within the one or more electronic media files in a first video format, wherein the initial portion is determined based on whether the time duration is greater than a predefined threshold such that the initial portion is determined to be an initial time duration that is less than the time duration in response to the time duration being greater than the predefined threshold;

    generate multiple transcoded media files of an initial portion of the video corresponding to the initial portion of the time duration, the initial portion of the video stored within the multiple transcoded media files in multiple video formats different from the first video format;

    receive a request for the video from a client computing platform, the request including specification regarding compatibility of video format for playback associated with the client computing platform;

    select at least one of the multiple transcoded media files for transmission to the client computing platform based on the compatibility of video format for playback associated with the client computing platform; and
