    Abstract: Devices and methods are disclosed that receive a request from a client device for a media file, determine compatibility of the media file with the requesting client device, and, if appropriate, transcode the media file into a compatible form which is then transmitted to the requesting client device. To determine whether a media file is compatible with the client request, the storage device can analyze a portion of the requested media file and compare that information with parameters of the client request. Transcoded data can be stored alongside the original file as a new file, stored in place of the original file, or stored in the same container as the original file so that the new file includes both the original version and the transcoded version of the media file.
