A format can be defined with a channel filter and/or an asset type filter.
...
A format is only visible for an asset if the asset passes both the channel filter and the asset type filter.
Channel filter:
A format is visible for an asset if the asset is published to one of the specified channel folders. A format is also visible for an asset if the asset is published to a sub channel folder of one of the specified channel folders.
If no channel folders are specified, no visibility filtering is applied based on channel folders.
Asset type filter:
A format is only visible for an asset if the asset has one of the specified asset types.
If no asset types are specified, no visibility filtering is applied based on asset types.
Note that the configured format filter filters only affects which formats that the backend indicates can be streamed and downloaded for assets. Consequently, when if a user has read access to an asset that does not pass a specific format filter, the user is still able to request a rendition of the asset in the specific formatcan request renditions of all formats that can be generated for this asset, independent of whether the asset passes all format filters.
Custom renditions
In addition to the formats defined on the system administration page, it is possible to allow users to request custom renditions of formats that the users define on-the-fly. This can be done via the “Custom rendition” button in the download dialog shown above or by calling the endpoint <api-url>/DigizuiteCore/LegacyService/api/renditions/<asset-id>/custom
