VITEC Digital Signage Products at InfoComm
Here is a brief look at the new products VITEC will have on display.
EZ TV & Digital Signage Platform
Designed as a scalable line of products for in-house distribution of TV feeds and private video content, the EZ TV & Digital Signage platform manages IPTV streams and campaigns for sports, education, entertainment and enterprise applications.
The series includes hardware-based IPTV and digital signage endpoints that provide low-latency playback, as well as real-time updates to electronic program guide (EPG), video on demand, time-shifted TV, and user controlled mosaic viewing of multiple channels in formats, including H.264 and HEVC up to 4K.
Moreover, VITEC will show its second-generation HEVC codec (GEN2) which is powered by its MGW Ace encoder, making it portable.
Point-to-Point HEV Streaming Solution
The MGW Ace Encoder and Decoder is a mobile, hardware-based, end-to-end 4:2:2 HEVC encode/decode solution. It uses VITEC’s second-generation HEVC (GEN2) codec to provide efficient bandwidth compression for state-of-the-art performance.
The product also includes H.264 encoding to support legacy applications and offers a selection of I/Os and low-power consumption via their HEVC chip.
VITEC points out the MGW Ace Encoder/Decoder can be used for streaming video audio and KLV metadata in the field.
House of Worship Multi-Site Video Streaming Solution
The House of Worship streaming solution now integrates with Renewed Vision ProVideoServer. This enables churches to record at least one high-quality stream from the main campus which includes embedded time code and multi channel audio.
These streams can be played back at the satellite campus anytime, and the upgraded solution bundles VITEC portable encoders/decoders with the Zixi error-free streaming protocol for cost-effective streaming in facilities of any size.
