The broadcast industry is completing the transition from standard definition to high definition all around the world. But demand for an even enhanced end-user experience with high fidelity content especially for premium events like sports is rising. “High fidelity” means that the remote viewing experience is as close as possible to watching the event on-site, which covers visual experience as well as audio/sound fidelity. Quad Full High Definition or 4k2k could be the answer, as cameras and TV sets start to be commercially available. But there is still a large uncertainty in other parts of the broadcast chain that include video compression and delivery.

The SR1000 is an innovative Elementary Stream rate allocator. Its purpose is to enhance the overall quality of a MPTS (Multi Program Transport Stream), balancing the bandwidth allocated to each encoder according to a proprietary algorithm that takes various image parameters (such as spatial complexity, motion, etc.) into account to perform that operation. The SR1000 communicates with the encoders via IP messages.

One of the highest points of interest that will be presented at our stand is the industry’s most advanced High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) codec. The HEVC codec allows broadcasters to reduce the bandwidth needed to deliver Ultra High Definition Television (UHDTV).
21 May
HEVC will be used first in applications where bandwidth is a problem today and the client device will easily be updated to support HEVC, either because it is a device that users replace frequently (smartphone) or because it is flexible to support HEVC as it is (PC). This means OTT delivery of live and on demand content, especially over wireless networks, is likely the first economically viable use case
