❓ Issue/Question
- We'd like to grant someone access to Scoreplay via API. Therefore, I want to check in which quality the videos are available via API.
👌 Resolution/Answer
- Following up on API access, here's what you can expect on video quality. Each video is available at a few tiers via the API:
-
photographer_quality→ The original file is untouched, so there's no fixed spec. It's whatever was originally supplied (e.g., one we checked was MXF, 1080p, ~5GB). Resolution/codec can't be guaranteed here. -
compressed_quality→ 1080p H.264 MP4 proxy, ~10 Mbps - The video object in the API response also gives you a
720p proxy(~5 Mbps) and a 720p HLS playlist (stream).
-
🔖 Notes
- Our recommendation is to point your users to
compressed_quality. It's the most usable and a standard format across any content type (highlights, live stream, tactical, etc.). - Fetching video and photo contents via API
