VITEC Announce NAB Lineup

VITEC has confirmed it will demonstrate a number of its end-to-end streaming solutions at NAB 2016, booth SL6305.

On display at the show will be:

• 4K HEVC Encoding with MGW Vision
The MGW Vision provides an HD point-to-point distribution streaming solution for several markets including broadcasting, in-house IPTV, and the enterprise market. In a compact form factor, the IPTV solution has been designed with low latency. It provides one channel of 4K or four channels of HD.

Point-to-point HEVC and Ultra-Low Latency Streaming
VITEC's MGW Ace appliance, a hardware-based HEVC portable device for encoding and streaming video, and the MGW D265, a portable HEVC IP decoder, will also be showcased. The MGW Ace appliance provides pristine video quality with its HEVC (H.265) bandwidth-efficient compression as well as legacy H.264 encoding capabilities. It has a selection of I/Os and low power consumption using VITEC's HEVC compression chip for streaming video, audio, and KLV metadata while in the field or on the move. Together with the MGW D265, they create end-to-end, on-the-go streaming solution with embedded Pro-MPEG FEC or Zixi error correction capabilities.

• IPTV Solution for Sports Venues and Enterprise Customers
The EZ TV IPTV Solution enables the use of hardware-based IPTV end-points to create video-rich digital signage that blends real-time video and marketing content. EZ TV's scalable architecture provides a complete solution for managing live feeds, on-demand content, and an unlimited number of digital signage layouts as well as distribute to thousands of IPTV and signage end-points, PC users, and mobile clients. The centralized Web-based interface for management and monitoring allows for rapid deployment and low operating costs.

• Multi-Site Video Streaming Solution
VITEC's new House of Worship Streaming Solution is now integrated with Renewed Vision ProVideoServer. It allows churches to record one or more high-quality encoded streams from the main campus, complete with embedded time code and multi-channel audio, and play back those streams at the satellite campus at any time.

• Portable Recording Solution
VITEC's Focus FS-H50/60/70 are portable, H.264 standard and HD recorders for workflows and applications requiring high video quality, optimized video file sizes, and remote capabilities. They record H.264 clips up to 1080p in MOV/MP4, which play back natively on any decoding platforms, including PC, Mac, tablets, and smartphones. They can be immediately uploaded to networks or video platforms for sharing and collaboration, without transcoding.

Philippe Wetzel, founder, president and CEO of VITEC, said: "VITEC is the first company to bring bandwidth-efficient HEVC compression technology into the field with our broadcast-grade portable streaming appliances. VITEC's HEVC offering is one of the most extensive in the market with encoding and decoding products, IPTV solutions for desktops and mobile devices, as well as PCI cards with SDK for integration projects."
