New Products For VITEC At IBC

VITEC has unveiled a number of new products it will be unveiling at IBC2015.

They include:

MGW Ace – The First Portable HEVC Encoder
The MGW Ace appliance is the industry's first 100-percent hardware-based HEVC portable device for encoding and streaming video. It features HEVC (H.265) bandwidth-efficient compression as well as legacy H.264 capabilities, supporting demanding field-based content requirements within settings such as live news broadcasts, sports venues, or secure applications within military environments. Equipped with a selection of I/Os and offering low power consumption using VITEC's HEVC compression chip, the device is ideal for any high-quality audio or video streaming, as well as KLV metadata requirements whether in the field or on the move.

MGW D265 Portable HEVC Decoder
The MGW D265 Portable H.265 & H.264 IP Decoder is specifically designed to provide decoding for any IPTV and full-motion-video application. Supporting next-generation HEVC (H.265) compression technology, the MGW D265 lets IP video applications benefit from up to 40-percent savings in network bandwidth compared to the H.264 format. As a result, installations experience reduced operating expenses, as well as improved picture quality within fixed bandwidth settings. Suitable for portable missions or stationary decoding on any network, the decoder provides connectivity options such as HD-SDI, SD-SDI, HDMI, and composite video while offering low end-to-end latency of 400 milliseconds.

EZ TV IPTV System
VITEC will showcase its EZ TV IPTV system, which allows any facility to deliver live, on-demand, or recorded video over their existing IP infrastructure. Using the EZ TV Web Portal, administrators can create, manage, and distribute video assets, while the solution's browser-based EZ TV Player uses a flexible digital video codec to offer CPU-efficient quality playback of IPTV streams across networks. Equipped with a new add-on for IPTV settings, the solution complements any IPTV deployment with quality and compliance dashboards, as well as instant alerts, ensuring video, audio, and metadata services are delivered to users.

MGW Sprint and MGW Portable Encoders – Zero-Delay Streaming
With the ability to encode and decode in under 10 milliseconds, the professional-grade IPTV device enables full-HD 1080p60 video and audio streaming – point-to-point or point-to-multipoint – with less than one video frame of delay. As a result, the solution practically matches the latency of any hardwired uncompressed video system. Also on display will be VITEC's full line of MGW portable encoders including Premium, Nano, Nano TOUGH, and Pico, all of which now support Zixi error-correction technology.

Focus FS-H50/60/70 – Portable Proxy Recorders
Ideal for sporting events, breaking news, dailies, meeting and training, surveillance, and online video sharing, the VITEC Focus FS-H50/60/70 are portable H.264 standard and HD recorders for workflows and applications requiring superior video quality and optimised video file size. With a resolution range up to 1080p30 and bit rates up to 8 Mb/s, the three models include composite and analog audio inputs, an HDMI input, and an HD/SD-SDI input, respectively.

Proxsys PX-Series Media Asset Management System and Archiving Solution
The Proxsys PX-Series media asset management (MAM) system enables organisations to edit, archive, and share media assets efficiently and securely, both within an organisation and with credentialed third parties. Within a user-friendly workflow, the Proxsys PX-Series provides the functionality and features required to safeguard high- and low-resolution video as well as audio, graphic, and data files. Proxsys V.8 will be unveiled at IBC2015, and features a new Proxsys Custom User Interface. In V.8, it will be possible to integrate the full Proxsys MAM functionality onto a customer's website, creating a seamless workflow with a familiar look and feel.

Extensor SDI4Mosaic – 4K Mosaic Generator
The Extensor SDI4Mosaic is the simplest way to connect up to four SDI feeds on a single mosaic display. SDI4Mosaic converts a 4K HD-SDI video source to a standard HDMI monitor. SDI4Mosaic automatically creates a mosaic of up to four video channels and displays on compatible monitors. It also allows the comparison of two video channels and displays them in various layouts. The OSD Status gives all status information super-imposed directly on the video output signal.

Philippe Wetzel, CEO of VITEC, said: "At VITEC, we take a holistic approach to digital video that gives our customers one IP video solution for handling everything from encoding to archiving. That approach will be evident at IBC2015, where we will be demonstrating the power of our multi-award-winning MGW Ace portable encoder and its counterpart, the MGW D265 decoder. Visitors to our stand will get a first-hand look at the industry's first completely portable IP streaming solution for H.265 video."
