transcoding

In telecommunication, transcoding is the direct digital-to-digital conversion from one encoding scheme, such as voice LPC-10, to a different encoding scheme without returning the signals to analog form. Encoding into a lossy compression format will strip details from the file. Transcoding from one lossy compression format to another will compound the loss of details from the file. (eg: transcoding a sound file from OGG Vorbis to MP3) Note: The transcoded signals, i.e., the digital representations of analog signals may be any digital representation of any analog signal, such as voice, facsimile, or quasi-analog signals.
