Demux Workflow Operation

ID: demux

Description

The demux operation can be used to demux multiple streams (e.g. presenter and presentation) from one container and put them into separate tracks. It uses a special encoding profile that has two outputs. It flavors the target media in the order listed in the encoding profile output.

Parameter Table

Configuration Key	Example	Description
source-flavors	multitrack/source	Which media should be encoded
target-tags	archive,rss;rss	Specifies the tags of the new media
target-flavors	presenter/*,presentation/*	Specifies the flavors of the new media
encoding-profile	demux	Specifies the encoding profile

Note that target-tags can hold multiple sets of tags separated by ;. Each set is applied to the matching set of output files (same order). Target flavors are separated by , as usual. They are applied in order as well.
