Real-time Broadcast Encoder
As a leader in software codec technologies, MainConcept provides the highest quality H.264 and/or MPEG Encoders. Combining this encoder software with special hardware, MainConcept now offers SunRyze SD. Based on powerful Texas Instruments DSPs, this solution encodes SDI video to H.264/AVC and/or MPEG-2 in real-time up to D-1 resolution using five TI DM642 processors.
SunRyze SD is designed for use in professional applications and other high-end environments, such as video broadcasting and streaming. As SunRyze SD does most of the heavy processing, a standard Windows XP desktop PC or workstation is sufficient as the host PC.
SunRyze SD is designed to capture full D-1 resolution video (PAL or NTSC) and encode it into H.264 and MPEG-2 files or streaming at broadcast quality. It plugs into any PCI host PC or Workstation. SunRyze SD consists of the main board with all the DSP, FPGA, RAM and front-end chips connected to the PCI carrier board.
For parallel video data processing the hardware uses five Texas Instruments TMS320DM642™ DSP chips.
The MainConcept H.264 and MPEG-2 encoder software has been adapted and specially optimized for this DSP platform to produce excellent encoding quality in real-time. A controller application, which writes the stream to a file and previews video is provided in addition to a DirectShow source filter for the incoming video stream.MainConcept AVC D-1 Encoder
For perfect quality video the SDI-input is compliant with SMPTE 259-M/C and accepts uncompressed digital D-1 video signals. An embedded audio signal compliant with SMPTE 272M-A will be de-embedded and processed by this board as well.
