Inlet release Fathom professional VC-1 encoder

INLET Technologies, a provider of professional encoding solutions for next-generation content creation and distribution, has standardised on the HP xw9300 Workstation, powered by the AMD Opteron processor.
Inlet’s Fathom professional VC-1 encoder was the first real-time encoding solution for Windows Media Video HD content. It combines a hardware encoding engine with workflow and analysis software to make next-generation distribution methods like HD-DVD, Blu-ray, video-on-demand, digital signage and dailies a reality today.
The creation and distribution of next-generation media requires a combination of high-performance computing environments, professional software solutions and the support of vendors who understand the complexities involved. Supporting dual PCI Express x16 graphics and 2P Single- and Dual-Core AMD Opteron processors, the HP xw9300 Workstation is optimised for next-generation media, delivering computational and visualisation power and I/O performance while contributing to lower total cost of ownership. The AMD Opteron processor with Direct Connect Architecture provides the highest performance per watt in the industry among x86 platforms in the world of 64-bit and legacy 32-bit computing, and the xw9300 Workstation can be configured with one or two of these processors in either single- or dual-core versions.
