We have added the following new options to the Soracom Cloud Camera Services (SoraCam) video export API, making it easier to download and play back exported videos on a variety of devices.

MP3 audio codec

You can now use the audioCodec parameter to specify MP3 as the audio codec when exporting videos. This makes it possible to play the audio stream in cases where your play back device is not compatible with a SoraCam-compatible device's default audio codec.

Note: Selecting MP3 as the audio codec will consume twice the standard export duration amount.

MP4 video format

You can now use the archive parameter to choose whether or not to download exported videos directly as an MP4 file. Doing so allows you to play videos without the additional step of extracting ZIP files.
