IBC Debut For VITEC Products

At IBC2016 (Stand 7.G16), VITEC will debut the new MGW Ace Decoder, alongside a number of its other solutions.

The MGW Ace Decoder is a compact HEVC/H.265 decoder which delivers broadcast-quality decoding of HEVC streams up to 1080p60 4:2:2 10-bit. It provides connectivity options and two pairs of audio decode capabilities. When used with the MGW Ace Encoder, it forms a portable, hardware-based end-to-end 4:2:2 10-bit HEVC solution, delivering reliable, low latency and bandwidth efficient streams suitable for IPTV, broadcast, and point-to-point applications.

Also on display at IBC2016 will be the EZ TV IPTV system. Designed for integration with existing enterprise networks, EZ TV's content management portal makes it easy to set up live TV channels, streaming of in-house content and recordings, and establish an access-controlled IPTV service to any user on the LAN or WAN. VITEC's digital signage add-on for EZ TV 8.0 runs on the same end-points used for IPTV, delivering signage capabilities on hardware-based, cost-effective players with reliability suited for large-scale deployments.

MGW Vision will be highlighted at the show. It is a new 4K/UHD HEVC real-time hardware-based encoder for IPTV, broadcast, and point-to-point distribution. With the MGW Vision, VITEC integrates UHD resolution with its hardware-based HEVC/H.265 compression and streaming technology. Advanced HEVC compression allows users to stream UHD/HD video with up to 50 percent bandwidth savings compared to the H.264 standard. With a compact 1RU form factor and H.265 4:2:0 and 4:2:2 hardware compression chip for streaming broadcast-quality video, the encoder has a processing power of up to one UHD or four HD HEVC channels from four 3G-SDI inputs.

Lastly, the PX Media Library is a time-saving meta-solution for media professionals to tag, edit, manage, organise, and share media files. An open system, it is easily adaptable to industry-specific workflows. PX Media Library streamlines media management and allows users to take advantage of proven solutions for sports applications, content providers, broadcasters, film festivals, scientific institutes, and government organisations. The platform allows all types of media to be consistently filed with the highest degree of security. PX Media Library also features a new deep learning auto-annotation tool and a video stock footage management application with responsive design and mobile device support.
