I have a video service where users upload their videos and I need to convert it to mp4 in several resolutions, there is a way using html5 or java (ideally not java) where when the user upload his video run an mp4 conversion using his computer power instead of my server cpu?

1I think you're going to run into some licensing restrictions since you would have to effectively license the codec for each user. I'm not a lawyer though... I don't know for sure. Codec licensing is complicated. – Brad Nov 21 '14 at 14:26

probably if I use an opensource library/codec could work – educacion disruptiva Nov 21 '14 at 16:15

Open source does not get you around licenses. X264 is open source, but still must be licensed from mpegla. – szatmary Nov 21 '14 at 18:12
