Notice

This document is a machine-translated draft and is currently undergoing review. Some content may be inaccurate or differ from the original Korean version. For the most precise information, refer to the Korean documentation.

This guide describes the entire process for distributing and playing standard content (unencrypted) through a shared channel. Refer to the service flow below when distributing content that anyone can play without a separate security policy (such as authentication tokens).


Core process summary

  1. Content upload: The customer administrator sends the content file to the Kollus upload server.
  2. Poster extraction: After the upload is complete, the system extracts a poster (representative image) to be displayed on the player's initial screen.
  3. Transcoding: An encoding process is performed to convert the content to the optimal resolution and bitrate for the playback environment. The customer administrator can check the progress status in [Library] in the Kollus VOD console.
  4. Thumbnail extraction: The system extracts thumbnail images to be used for preview screens in the progress bar of the player.
  5. Upload file key issuance: When transcoding is complete, the system issues an upload file key to identify the content.
  6. Channel registration and media content key issuance: When the customer administrator registers the content to a specific channel, the system issues a media content key, which is the identification key for distribution.
  7. Playback URL generation and verification: The customer administrator generates a Playback URL using the media content key. The generated URL is entered in the browser address bar to perform a final check on whether the content plays correctly.
