In addition to signing on board with openGear, Vitec has announced its first product that works with the platform, the Vitec openGear IP decoder card. “The Vitec openGear IP decoder card is a perfect complement to our HEVC contribution solution where channel density and system reliability is paramount,” said Richard Bernard, Vitec senior product manager.
