Encoder is a device that converts audio or video into a network stream or distribution format.
Example of Encoder
A centralized Apple TV, cable box, or media player can be routed to the kitchen, bedroom, theater, or patio with the correct remote controls in each room. In that kind of Davis distributed video project, the term Encoder would describe a device that converts audio or video into a network stream or distribution format. Davis would use that understanding to account for source locations, matrix or switching equipment, cabling, remotes, and room-by-room source access, then test the result in the actual room, document the related components, and show the client how to use the feature without needing to manage the technical details behind it.
