Product Types / Content Types

Flickrocket supports multiple product types/content types and virtually all can be DRM-protected for secure, non-shareable distribution.

The uploaded content is encrypted and, depending on the content type, transcoded into multiple destination formats, and stored on the Flickrocket CDN for high-performance delivery.

Video (Linear)

Linear videos are typically MP4 file in SD, HD, or higher quality, all with h.264 video and AAC audio. Flickrocket supports multiple resolutions, frame rates and containers. The video is transcoded into multiple resolutions/bit rates and DRM systems for smooth delivery to multiple platforms independent of the available bandwidth. DRM is available across all platforms and for download as well as streaming.

It is possible to attach a physical license to a linear video product, if a physical item (e.g. Blu-ray) should be allowed for order.

Regarding pricing, Flickrocket differentiates between SD video and HD video and between short form and long form videos. See pricing page for details.

Video (DVD)

Video (DVD)s are regular DVD files (VIDEO_TS folder) which are transcoded into fluxDVDs to keep the full interactivity/full content while being reduced in size. DRM is available across all platforms and for download as well as streaming.

Physical

Physical products are tangible products which need to be shipped or collected from the store.

Services can be limited to a certain maximum sales number, e.g. to limit the participants of a course.

Collection

Collection products allow the bundling of other product types under a single shop sales product. DRM licenses applied to the collection are inherited to all products in the collection.

Variation

Variation products are products with multiple properties from which the wanted product can be selected. A typical example is a pair of shoes in different colors and sizes.

Access Group

Access Group products grant the purchaser access to an access group as defined in Flickrocket. Members of access groups have access to all products assigned to the group. All changes to the group content are automatically applied to all members of the group.

Gift Certificate

A gift certificate can be redeemed later in the same shop. It is usually purchased as a gift for another person.
