“You could build a computer powerful enough, but it would not fit onto a journalist’s laptop”
Eureka research projects, and Sky Italia’s UHD trials. Meanwhile, Tata
Communications has chosen Harmonic’s ProMedia file-based transcoding to deliver multiformat HEVC video over its Content Transform cloud- based video transcoding and delivery system. This will provide Tier 1
operators “with easy access to HEVC support with the capacity, speed, and security required for delivering high-quality web and mobile services,” said Sameer Kanse, business head, Tata Communications’ Media Services. It will enable accelerated file transfers and reduce broadcasters’ capital expenditure.
Freely available Telestream’s new Vantage 6 video processing platform for transcoding and file-based workflow automation can handle many different formats, including HEVC. Telestream also launched an open source H.265 encoder in partnership with MulticoreWare. The x256 project (
x.265.org) aims to be as “robust, efficient and high quality” as their previous x264 collaboration. It will be free under GNU LGPL licensing, while commercial licenses will be available for companies to use it in their products. Rovi launched DivX 10, the first consumer software for HEVC, enabling the free creation and playback of DivX video H.265 on Windows or Mac computers. “We believe DivX 10 is an application that will help fuel HEVC content availability and generate demand for playback support to be integrated into consumer electronics devices,” said Kanaan Jemili, SVP, product management, Rovi Corp. The DivX HEVC profiles are supported across DivX Converter, DivX Player and DivX Web Player, and it allows realtime decoding of HEVC at up to 1080p on Intel i5 systems. It will also create MP4 video for playback on iOS. Rovi’s end-to-end HEVC system also includes new MainConcept encoding SDKs for professional content creators, the DivX Video Service with DivX DRM for protected HEVC content delivery, and an extension to its DivX Certification programme that allows integrated circuit and CE device customers to quickly bring to market products
supporting HEVC playback.
