Mux

Mux Assets API

An asset refers to a piece of media content that is stored or is being live streamed through the Mux system. An asset always has a duration and one or more tracks (audio, video, and text data). The media content of an asset cannot be updated once created, however an asset can be used to create another asset, and can be modified within that process.
