Announcement on the Price Adjustment of CSS Audio/Video Enhancement Feature

Last updated: 2023-08-31 15:35:16
    Starting from October 1, 2023, CSS will charge for Audio/Video Enhancement based on enhancement features, resolution, and frame rate dimensions, to meet your needs for using individual or multiple enhancement features separately and billing them individually.

    Notes

    The adjusted price will take effect from 00:00 on October 1, 2023. That is, from 00:00 on October 1, 2023, Audio/Video Enhancement will be billed separately based on features, resolution, and frame rate dimensions, and the bill will be issued on October 2.
    The original billing item included both Top Speed Codec Transcoding (TSC Transcoding) fees and Audio/Video Enhancement fees. After the adjustment, the billing item will only apply to Audio/Video Enhancement separately, while the TSC Transcoding fees will be billed separately.
    After the adjustment, the Top Speed Codec Transcoding Package can still be used to deduct the TSC Transcoding usage, but it cannot be used to deduct the Audio/Video Enhancement usage.
    If you have a special agreement with Tencent Cloud regarding product prices, you can contact us through your business representative or by Submit a Ticket to determine the specific strategy for implementing subsequent prices.

    Audio/Video enhancement

    Billing Overview

    Billing Item: Audio/Video Enhancement (prices vary based on enhancement features, resolution, and frame rate).
    Billing Rules: By default, it is daily billing. The fees are calculated based on the Audio/Video Enhancement features used and the enhanced resolution and frame rate. The billing is calculated by multiplying the duration of Audio/Video Enhancement at a specific resolution within a natural day by the corresponding unit price.

    Billing formula

    Audio/Video Enhancement cost = Audio/Video Enhancement duration × corresponding enhancement feature (resolution, frame rate) price.

    Billing Example

    If you initiate a 100-minute live stream on October 1, 2023, and use two Audio/Video enhancement capabilities, Font Enhancement and Low-Light Enhancement, during the live stream. After Top Speed Codec (TSC) Transcoding, the output live stream is in H.264 codec format, 1080P resolution, and 30fps. On October 2, 2023, your live Audio/Video enhancement bill will be as follows:
    Top Speed Codec (TSC) Transcoding Fee = 0.0443 (USD/minute) × 100 (minutes) = 4.43 USD;
    Font Enhancement Fee = 0.1411 (USD/minute) × 100 (minutes) = 14.11 USD;
    Low-Light Enhancement Fee = 0.0353 (USD/minute) × 100 (minutes) = 3.53 USD;
    
    The effective date of this price adjustment is October 1, 2023. Please pay attention to the new billing method.
