CODEC SDK for Video Contents HEVC Software CODEC HEVC-1000 SDK World Class High Quality Video Images/High Compression H.265/HEVC Video Encoding Applications can now be created. H.265/HEVC CODEC SDK for Video Encoding Application Development for Mobile to 4K Video. HEVC Software CODEC HEVC-1000 SDK The number of smart phones, and the amount of data they use, have increased greatly along with rapid progress in video delivery through the Internet. Meanwhile, apprehension that the rapid increase in carrier traffic will result in falling QoS means that even higher data compression for video is even more strongly desired from now on. NTT-AT’s “RealFeel HEVC Software CODEC HEVC-1000 SDK” is a Video Encoding Application Development Kit that utilizes the latest H.265/HEVC standards to allow the increasing number of video devices and services. Video&Audio File Encoding Process HEVC Encoder Engine Audio encoder Encoded Video Data Multiplexing part Encoded Audio Data TS File (HEVC) Server for video delivery to the Internet Decoding Process HEVC Decoder Engine Audio decoder Encoded Video Data Multiplexing separation part Encoded Audio Data IP Video Data Input Audio Data Video Data Output Audio Data Early Adoption of HEVC State-of-the-Art Technology Local Qp Adjustment (LQA) technology, which NTT Media Intelligence Laboratories have developed, achieves the higher image quality and compression efficiency 1POINT Recognized by ITU-T as the “Standard for Supporting the Next 10 Years,” H.265/HEVC was standardized in April, 2013. It provides approximately twice the compression performance when compared with conventional H.264/AVC. 2POINT Taking advantage of unique encoding control technology gained from many years of Video CODEC research and development, stable encoding at a constant user specified bit rate, is possible, even when the characteristics of the video are changing. 3POINT Since it is also compatible with the 4K resolution video production which is attracting attention from world markets as a next-generation broadcasting format, the HEVC Software CODEC HEVC-1000 SDK provides the reassurance that it can be used for a variety of purposes even with future increases in high resolution video production. Ideal Even for Next Generation 4K Video Production Stable Encoding Made Possible
