The asset lifecycle

Every provider reports upload and encoding progress differently. Videos SDK collapses them into five canonical states on Asset.status:

type AssetStatus =
  | 'waiting_upload' // asset created, bytes not received yet
  | 'uploading'      // bytes are being received / fetched from a URL
  | 'processing'     // transcoding / packaging
  | 'ready'          // playable
  | 'errored';       // upload or processing failed

Reading it is the same on every adapter:

const { status } = await videos.get(id);
if (status === 'ready') {
  const { hls } = await videos.playback(id);
}

How providers map

Rehelios returns the canonical statuses natively; the other adapters normalize their provider-specific codes into them. An unknown or new provider status falls back to processing, so your app never sees a value outside the five canonical states.
