Video Transformations

Transform your videos on-the-fly using our powerful transformation system. This guide explains how to use transformations to resize, crop, add effects, and optimize your videos.

URL Format

Transformations are applied by adding them to the URL:

https://cdn.apexxcloud.com/f/{access_id}/{transformations}/path

For example:

https://cdn.apexxcloud.com/f/abc123/tr-w_1280,h_720/videos/sample.mp4

Basic Format

Transformations follow a simple, consistent pattern:

tr-{parameter_name}_{value}

Combining Transformations

Multiple parameters can be combined using commas:

tr-w_1280,h_720

Multiple transformation sets can be chained using plus signs:

tr-w_1280,h_720+blur_10

Transformation Categories

Our video transformation system is organized into six main categories:

  1. Resize - Control video dimensions and scaling
  2. Crop - Smart cropping and focal point control
  3. Effects - Visual effects and filters
  4. Overlays - Add text, image, and video overlays
  5. Format - Format conversion and optimization
