Telestream’s Episode encoder now available for Windows

Telestream’s Episode series media encoding software, previously available only on the Macintosh platform, is now available for Windows.

The new cross-platform version 5.1 also brings watch folders to Episode desktop products for both Mac and Windows users. Episode provides universal transcoding between virtually any video and audio format.

Episode Pro’s deep format support and comprehensive set of professional-grade filters make it an essential part of any video transcoding toolkit. Files can be converted for post production or produce files for the Web and mobile devices in both SD and HD.

Cross-platform support means that users and organizations no longer need to learn and support multiple encoding tools for different purposes. Known for speed, quality and ease of use, Episode products simplify content repurposing for distribution to the growing number of digital media channels such as the Web, DVD, IPTV, mobile phones and portable devices.

The new software also offers extended MXF decode and encode support and expands support for broadcast workflows and playout servers such as Avid, Omneon and K2.
