## Content/Quality negotation
Instead of having complex logic to know which client supports which codecs, we use HLS to it's full potential.
Each quality & codec supported by gocoder is specified in the manifest and the client is free to pick the one it can play (and switch on the fly to change quality if network changes).
This makes the API easier (to adopt for new clients & to write) but it means it's harder to handle transmuxing.
I did a blog post explaining the core idea, you can find it at [zoriya.dev/blogs/transcoder](https://zoriya.dev/blogs/transcoder).
## Usage
Gocoder is shipped as a docker image configurable via env variables (see `.env.example`). Using it outside Kyoo is supported.
