IIS Transform Manager 1.0 Beta now available

Roughly two weeks ago, I mentioned about a Windows Phone 7 application serving video using IIS. If you are working with videos and are using IIS to serve them, then you might be interested in the first beta of IIS Transform Manager 1.0. But what is this tool? Shortly put, it allows you to automatically encode and transform videos into different formats using Expression Encoder 4:

"Whether you have libraries of content or a steady stream of user-generated content that you want to convert from one video format to another, the beta release of IIS Transform Manager can help. Transform Manager is an extensible media transform engine that easily enables "Watch Folder" job submission, queuing, management, integrated media transcoding/transmuxing, and batch-encryption of on-demand audio and video files."
