Methods and systems for use in maintaining media data quality upon conversion to a different data format
First Claim
1. A method for use in converting multimedia content, comprising:
- receiving media data in a first format;
initiating a first conversion of the media data at the first format to a second converted format;
identifying parameters dictating the conversion to the second converted format;
recording the parameters; and
distributing the recorded parameters to remote systems such that the parameters at least in part control the remote systems during a conversion of the media data to the second converted format.

Abstract
The present embodiments provide methods, apparatuses, and systems for use in maintaining data quality upon conversion to a different data format. Some embodiments provide methods that receive media data in a first format, initiate a first conversion of the media data at the first format to a second converted format, identify parameters dictating the conversion to the second converted format, record the parameters, and distribute the recorded parameters to remote systems such that the parameters at least in part control the remote systems during a conversion of the media data to the second converted format.

20. An apparatus for use in converting multimedia content, comprising:
-
a converter system that receives content in a first format and converts the content to a second format;
a memory storing a plurality of parameters that control the converter system during the conversion of the content to the second format;
an analyzer system coupled with the converter system to receive the second formatted content, analyzes a quality of the second formatted content, and determines adjustments to a first set of parameters; and
a distribution unit coupled with the converter that detects the adjustments to the first set of parameters and distributes at least the adjustment to the first set of parameters to remote client systems. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23)
