I am capturing multiple videos and trying to store them all in one media asset and later encode them. But I always get the below error. There are no issues however if I upload one file to asset and run the encoding job.
Output 'BuiltInStandardEncoderPreset_0', Error : Microsoft.Azure.Management.Media.Models.JobError : While trying to download the input files, the files were not accessible, please check the availability of the source.
Do I need to use one media asset for each upload? Is having multiple files in one asset not the right approach?
FYI: I tried all thesew steps on media servicer explorer desktop app. So please be sure I didn't write any code for this.
You would indeed need to use a separate Asset for each video. We'll follow up with a service update to improve the error message in this situation.
I think the problem here is not the upload of multiple files in one asset, but the fact that the encoding job will not pick each blob of the asset and encoding them. That's why you need to use one asset per video file to be encoded.

In my Video Indexer, every time I upload a video I get these 3 different asset folders. When I upload 3 different videos, there will be 9 new asset containers. This is also the result when I use logic app. What could be the problem here? And what could be the solution.
What you are seeing are the Azure Media Services assets https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/media-services/latest/assets-concept
This is by design. If you want, you can build a process to delete them.
I have successfully uploaded some audio files via Nodejs to AWS, the file url is also returned from my function. I plan to save this url in MongoDB Atlas as a reference to the original file but before doing that, I tried to play the file (from the url) in my mobile app and it won't play.
The file is in .m4a format. How do I get this to work in any audio player for mobile and web? I'm using flutter for both. I don't want to do piping, chunking and streaming manually as this is just a dummy test of the system. The original files to be used in the app will be much larger.
Here's the file url https://empty-bouquet.s3.af-south-1.amazonaws.com/Dax+-Dear+God.m4a.
Thanks
.m4a audios aren't natively streamed from S3, but after a test I can verify that .mp3 files are. Most browsers will recognize that filetype and render a built-in player for you.
You can convert from one format to another using a lot of free tools. I used Audacity.
And yes, you need to make at least the file public. Or if you're going to do this a lot I would recommend making a bucket policy that makes everything public, no matter what you throw in there.
Usually, while we upload it takes files to the temp directory first and then move it to the desired directory. But I'm working on Big Data e.g. uploading thousands of files at once. So I need to upload those files directly to the desired location and as each one of them uploaded to that directory, the user must see the changes on the dashboard in real time.
Also I need to show user
If any exception has occurred while uploading e.g. if a file causing a problem in the uploading process.
There should be an option to skip that file or retry upload.
Report to show the list of files uploaded successfully vs files that failed to upload.
If there is any network outage, the upload manager should keep retrying until the network is restored.
User can pause upload and can restart it on next login(if it is feasible)
This is about full manipulation of the upload process to give user the best user experience while uploading large sets of data.
You can use ng2-file-upload, it has most of the feature you require.
You can also find demo here.
For rest of the features you require, you can implement those on top of this library (It's better than writing your own code from scratch).
I am new to azure, I ref media encoding sample tutorial & it working fine too,
but when I upload multiple file it successfully upload but while encoding job, my job.Submit(); method throw an exception
and another is I want single file in output (in short I want merge video files and add some snaps in between video)
No, currently (as of October the 7th) you can't join/combine multiple files into single one.
As for the errors you get while job.Submit() - in order to receive a proper answer, you have to ask the question properly - provide relevant code lines/snippet, full stack trace, exact steps to reproduce etc.
Also, then doing media trans-coding, always keep an eye on the list of supported media codecs here. Make sure you are using supported codecs before asking question.
Azure's Media Encoder Stander (MES) supports combining multiple video files using a custom preset.

I have an app that synchronises content with a web server so that the app ends up with an offline and cut down version of the server based web pages. All text and html is stored in a SQLite database but what is the best approach for handling file assets? In my case this is a mix of image and audio files.
The synchronisation is all set up in the core project and my Touch project has a Content directory set up for storing the assets and my intention had been to have a similar setup for Droid. I could pass the list of files needed to the UI projects and download them from there but that seems wrong.
Thanks.
For that I would create a Service in Mvx which the ViewModels you create use for getting the external assets. Take for instance the Daily Dilbert Tutorial. You could consider the daily comics as being very similar to your external assets, where the DilbertService is used to get all the comics and presents them in a List. However your list could be a list of files located on the SDcard or where you decide to store your files.
