I would like to create a clip from an existing video asset using Azure Media Services without encoding
This can be done using a Dynamic Manifest
It works but I also want to download the clip using the manifest. Is this possible somehow ?
Or only if it is re-encoded ? like this https://learn.microsoft.com/en-au/azure/media-services/previous/media-services-azure-media-clipper-submit-job#submitting-encoding-job-to-create-video
You are correct - do download the clip, you would need to re-encode. You can submit a clipping Job directly - see this for more information
