Description:
The QVidiumTM MPEG2+4 IP Codec provides a compact and reliable solution for transporting live NTSC and PAL video streams across an IP network. QVidium’s MPEG2+4 IP Codec implements QVidium’s patent-pending ARQ error correction as well as the latest version of the Pro-MPEG Forum’s standard, Code of Practice (COP) 3 release 2 with Forward Error Correction (FEC) for reliable and interoperable video transport.
QVidiumTM MPEG2+4 IP Codec can be quickly configured through its easy-to-use web interface as either an encoder or decoder, or both. As an encoder digitizes composite or S-Video video signals, along with stereo audio, compresses them using MPEG-2 (MP@ML) or MPEG-4 (SP@L1, L2 & L3, Full D1 & interlacing) 4:2:0 and MPEG-1 Layer-II audio compressions, multiplexes the video and audio streams and produces a DVB-compliant MPEG-2 Transport Stream. It encapsulates the video transport stream into IP packets using the UDP or Real Time Protocol (RTP) for complete interoperability with Set-Top Boxes (STB) and other UDP and RTP compliant gateways. It can accommodate both PAL and NTSC video formats.
As a decoder, it will accept any ProMPEG, RTP/IP, or UDP/IP encapsulated MPEG-2 video transport stream, and decode video through its S-Video or composite outputs. |
Features:
• Advanced error correction, selectable between Pro-MPEG COP 3 Release 2 FEC and QVidium’s ARQ, maintains video transport quality despite packet loss, reordering, and duplication.
• QVidium’s advanced packet pacing eliminates large packet bursts that can impair video transport.
• Compliance with DVB standards insures interoperability. Interoperable with Set-Top Boxes (STB).
• Very low cost per channel provides cost-effective solutions for cost sensitive applications.
• Two Codecs provide a complete end-to-end solution for transmission of analog video and audio over IP networks. Can send and receive audio and video simultaneously.
• Compact size is perfect for mobile applications such as Electronic News Gathering (ENG).
• Silent fan-less design completely eliminates any added noise and insures reliability.
• 6VDC Power Input for mobile applications.
• Includes composite video, S-Video, and Cable TV Tuner inputs. |
