🎥Assets
Livepeer supports different ways to import videos as Assets.
An Asset
refers to a piece of media content that is stored in the Livepeer platform.
The media content of an Asset
cannot be updated once created, however it can be used to create other assets, and can be modified within that process through one or more tasks.
Livepeer currently support exports to IPFS, in order to let you mint video NFTs, adding customizable metadata.
