A method for transcoding content using a transcoding recipe, the method comprising:

• receiving, from a node of a content distribution network (CDN), content and a transcoding recipe indicating:
• a first transcoding model for a first subpart of the content;
• and
• a second transcoding model for a second subpart of the content;
• transcoding, using the first transcoding model, the first subpart of the content to generate a first transcoded subpart;
• transcoding, using the second transcoding model, the second subpart of the content to generate a second transcoded subpart;
• and
• providing, to a client device, transcoded content comprising the first transcoded subpart and the second transcoded subpart.

A method for transcoding content from a content provider, the method comprising:

• receiving, from a client device, a request for content of a content distribution network (CDN), wherein the request for content comprises requested format information indicating a request resolution that is different than a resolution of the content;
• determining, from a set of transcoding models, a transcoding model to transcode the content;
• transcoding, using the determined transcoding model, at least a part of the content to generate transcoded content having the request resolution;
• and
• providing, in response to the request for content, the transcoded content to the client device.
