HCoder ASI\/IP\u2122 Features HDMI, SDI, HD-SDI, and YPrPb Input,
\nHDCP Pass Through, and Simultaneous
\nDual DVB-ASI and 1 GigE IP Outputs<\/p>\n
San Diego, California — DVEO, the broadcast division of Computer Modules, Inc. (CMI), will introduce their new broadcast grade H.264 high definition or standard definition encoder next month, at the NAB (National Association of Broadcasters) Show, April 12-15, in Las Vegas, Nevada, in Booth SU2709.<\/p>\n
Designed for broadcasters and content providers, the HCoder ASI\/IP\u2122 supports both H.264 HD and SD encoding, with automatic standards detection and simultaneous dual ASI outputs and GigE IP output. The input can be HDMI, SDI, HD-SDI, component analog (YPbPr), or CVBS.<\/p>\n
The HCoder ASI\/IP features SD to HDTV resolution up to 1920 x 1080 x 60i\/50i. The unit includes LCD front panel controls and head-end management software. Audio encoding is MPEG-1 Layer-II with optional Dolby Digital AC-3 passthrough or optional AAC.<\/p>\n
H.264, also known as MPEG-4 Part 10, or MPEG-4 AVC, uses less than 60% of the bandwidth as MPEG-2, but delivers the same quality of video. It is now the preferred method for delivering high definition video for cable, satellite and telco TV.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur HCoder ASI\/IP H.264 encoder will begin shipping in April, around the NAB timeframe,\u201d noted Laszlo Zoltan, Sales Manager for DVEO. \u201cBecause it accepts HD and SD input, plus input from low cost HDMI cameras, it is extremely versatile. We recommend it to our customers for backhaul applications and electronic news gathering. It is also ideal for sending HD or SD video via private IP networks.\u201d<\/p>\n
The HCoder ASI\/IP H.264 encoder is based on advanced Fujitsu\u00ae encoding chipsets. Other useful features of the HCoder ASI\/IP include IP unicast and multicast support, HDCP support for the HDMI input (for content protection), and a latency of approximately 500 milliseconds. A matching decoder, the Virenza\u2122, is also available.<\/p>\n
