Toronto-based ViXS Systems introduced its MPEG4 AVC (MPEG4 Part 10/H.264) transcoder/encoder/decoder system-on-a-chip (SOC), named XCode 3290, at IBC2007.

ViXS says the new XCode 3290 will provide “the sizzle factor” in AVC home video products. It’s poised for integrated into products such as HD STBs, PVRs, DTVs, Blu-Ray/HD DVD recorders, media servers and network attached storage (NAS) products.

Its multi-core processors allow for multiple and/or advanced applications such as PVR, DLNA and Networking without the aid of an external CPU.

At IBC, Modulus Video will demonstrate its ME2000 family of SD/HD switchable MPEG-4 AVC video 1 RU encoders.

The XCode 3290 SoC features real-time MPEG-2 high-definition to AVC HD transcoding.

Regulatory and Standards

Telairity Semiconductor has announced its new video encoder for AVC (MPEG 4, Part 10/H.264). Starting with the T1P2000 multicore processor, the first system-on-chip (SoC) to use the new architecture, Telairity 1's H.264 encoding solutions offer a small footprint and low cost for broadcast-quality H.264 video compr

Equipment

The AVC-Intra compression scheme complies with the MPEG-4 AVC (H.264) open standard, and provides 10-bit 4:2:2 full-raster compression at the same bit-rate as DVCPRO HD.
