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?

    I 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
