These plugins allow you to perform transcodes
Default Transcode
This Plugin manages the creation of a Media Asset of Creation Context Transcode. This plugin is very similar in functionality to the Default Create Proxy Plugin. The configuration can be used to specify the Transcode Profile to use and the output location for the transcoded file.
