As transcoding is considered a basic feature of a MRFP, the MRFC does not explicitly request transcoding. It is expected that the MRFP determines when transcoding is applied, for example, when the MRFC specifies the audio codec to be applied for a given stream in a context, if there are any other audio terminations in the context and the stream modes permit data flow between these terminations and where the source encodings are not compatible then the MRFP transcodes the stream between these terminations.
As transcoding is considered a basic feature of an MRFP the MRFC does not explicitly request transcoding. It is expected that the MRFP determines when transcoding is applied, for example, when the MRFC specifies the video codec to be applied for a given stream in a context, if there are any other terminations supporting video in the context and the stream modes permit data flow between these terminations and where the source encodings are not compatible then the MRFP transcodes the stream between these terminations.
