Systems and methods for providing transcoded portions of a video
First Claim
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
effectuate transmission of one or more selected transcoded media files to the client computing platform.

Abstract
Multiple videos having individual time durations may be obtained, including a first video with a first time duration. The videos may include visual information defined by one or more electronic media files. An initial portion of the first time duration where the one or more electronic media are to be transcoded may be determined, including determining whether the first time duration is greater than a predefined threshold and if the first time duration is greater than the predefined threshold, determining the initial portion to be an initial time duration that is less than the first time duration. One or more transcoded media files may be generated during the initial portion. A request for the first video may be received from a client computing platform. In response to receipt of the request, the one or more transcoded media files may be transmitted to the client computing platform for display.

11. A method that transcodes videos, the method performed by a computing system including one or more processors, the method comprising:
-
determining, by the computing system, 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; generating, by the computing system, 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 a multiple video formats different from the first video format; receiving, by the computing system, 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; selecting, by the computing system, 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 effectuating, by the computing system, transmission of one or more selected transcoded media files to the client computing platform. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
