re-encoded
Digitally translated twice
Re-encoded describes something that has been encoded again, typically after being decoded or converted to a different format.
The term appears most often in digital contexts where audio, video, or data files are converted from one compression format to another, or compressed again at different quality settings.
The video was re-encoded to reduce file size for streaming.
Each re-encoding of lossy formats like MP3 or JPEG typically degrades quality slightly, which is why archivists prefer to keep original source files.
