# Change the Format of Images

Many processing tasks produce images. When Media Server ingests video, it decodes the video into individual frames. Analysis tasks can also produce images, for example keyframe extraction, face detection, and number plate recognition produce images of keyframes, faces, and number plates, respectively.

You might want to change the format of these images before sending them to an output task (output tasks can output base-64 encoded image data).
