Abstract
A transcoding method used in a computer network comprises: receiving, by a task manager in the computer network, a transcoding task, where the transcoding task has task information; generating task dispatch information according to the task information; and separately acquiring, according to the task dispatch information, source data of media segments corresponding to a media file, parallelly transcoding the source data into data in a target format by using multiple transcoders, and storing the data into a storage server in the computer network, where the transcoder includes a processor of the storage server. Distributed transcoding is completed by using an idle CPU of a storage server, so that not only costs of hardware are reduced and an existing resource is fully used, but also transmission and copying of data are greatly accelerated, thereby improving transcoding efficiency.
