All changes to the old media format are ignored.
Qualities Renditions are no longer generated based on profiles. Thus, if qualities renditions of the old media format were previously being generated when an asset was published to a specific channel folder, this is no longer the case. Pre-generation can be set up for the new format. However, please carefully consider if this is necessary now that the transcode system supports on-demand transcoding.
Existing qualities renditions are not re-generated. Thus, the existing qualities renditions will be used when requesting qualities renditions of existing assets in the new format. This is also the case if generating the quality rendition with the new format definition would lead to a different quality rendition than the existing qualityrendition. As described in https://digizuite.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DD/pages/3708157997/DC+5.10+Breaking+changes+-+Transcode+system#New-thumbnail-formats, it is possible to use the “Generate asset renditions” automation step to force existing qualities renditions to be re-generated.
For new assets, the new transcode system and the new format are used to generate qualitiesrenditions. This is also the case if a quality rendition of the old media format is requested.
Qualities Renditions of the format can still be requested with the ID of the old media format. This is mainly relevant for backward compatibility reasons.

All new formats that have been created as part of the automatic format migration, as described above, will appear as delete actions when diffing in configuration management. Furthermore, all member groups that had one of these old formats configured as a download quality rendition will have an update action, updating the download qualities renditions to the corresponding new formats.
