From 5.10.8, the migration from the old transcode system to the new transcode system must be performed manually.The automatic migration in

The automatic migration that was run on 5.10.0-5.10.7 , please ensure that the following script is run to achieve exactly the same result as the manual migrationversions (both inclusive) did not migrate profiles. Instead, profile-like setups had to be configured with the Generate asset renditions automation step.

If you upgrade a site to 5.10.8 (or newer) and start using the “No-security channel folders” parameter on formats to control publicly available renditions, please be aware that existing publicly available renditions will always remain publicly available, unless the automation step Generate asset renditions is still used to make the renditions private again.

We recommend using the “No-security channel folders” parameter on formats to control which renditions that are publicly available. If you decide to do this and you have previously used the automation approach, please run the following script to ensure that renditions can be made private again based on the “No-security channel folders” parameter of the configured formats: https://github.com/Digizuite/scripts/blob/main/enforce_channel_based_ignore_security.sql.

If the script above is not run, then renditions that were already publicly available when migrating can only be made private with the Generate asset renditions automation step and not via the “No-Security channel folders” option on formats.

...

NB: When you run this script, it will be very difficult to revert back to an automation-based approach for controlling publicly available renditions.

Migration details

To manually migrate from the old transcode system to the new transcode system, the following SQL script can be used: https://github.com/Digizuite/scripts/blob/main/transcode_system_migration.sqlplease see the section Manual Migration Guide.

The script migrates as many old media formats as possible to new formats. In particular, a new format with the same name as the old format is created, and then the old format is mapped to the new format. This is only done for old media formats that can be mapped to a supported format type in the new transcode system. Please contact R&D if you have a use case for a format type that is not supported in the new transcode system.
