Abstract: A video encoding and transcoding system comprising a video content display unit that has a platform, a browser and a bandwidth and is adapted to display video content, a storage server that is adapted to receive video content, and a video encoder that is adapted to download video content and transcode video content. The preferred system automatically determines the platform, the browser and the bandwidth of the video content display unit and automatically selects the most optimized video format using real time adaptive bit rate switching in HTML5. A method for encoding and transcoding video content comprising providing a video encoding and transcoding system, visiting a video encoder website, selecting a resolution, uploading a video to a storage server, triggering an encoder, downloading a copy of the video, transcoding the video to a selected resolution, and uploading the video to the storage server.

Abstract: A printing system including an interpreter with an interpreter program is provided. The interpreter converts each one of multiple print jobs from a job language format to a printable format for consumption by a printer. At least one of the multiple print jobs includes an identifier indicating that the at least one of the multiple print jobs includes bar code printing related information. The printing system includes a barcode font call processing program and an interpreter support system. Each one of the multiple print jobs is read by the interpreter support system and, when the interpreter support system reads the at least one of the multiple print jobs, the at least one of the multiple print jobs is processed with the barcode font call processing program so that a barcode font call, for delivery by the interpreter support system to the interpreter, is generated by the barcode font call processing program.

Abstract: An extended Foreign Device Interface (FDI) to external devices provides point of sale accounting for use of a Multi-Function Device (MFD). Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) can be used, in addition to the very limited page oriented interface used on copiers, to access much more detailed information about a job, permitting accurate billing by feature use, including for scan only jobs that are not currently supported. The interface also permits the external device to control job status, allowing approval of a job only after a complete cost has been computed.
