“The task of modern cloud storage that the user had the opportunity to not only instantly get access to the necessary file, but to work with him, regardless of the device and availability of this or other software, — said Alexey Sergeev, Deputy Vice President Mail.Ru Group for strategic products. — The appearance of the media player in the Cloud Mail.Ru that is actively used for storage of video content is another step in this direction.”
Since all content is stored in the Cloud in their original size and quality (no compression), the developers have implemented the technique in which files are converted in real-time. This is a fundamentally different approach compared to most online resources, including social networks and specialized hosting that accept from the user of the source video, convert it to the proper format, then delete the original and keep a modified version of a file. To provide the user with the best playback quality for those conditions in which it is located, the Cloud Mail.Ru takes into account the maximum number of parameters in the conversion, including the speed of your Internet connection, the user’s device, and the format and file options.
