Hardware Encoder for MPEG-4 Streaming and IPTV Encoding of Digital Signage Players For ISE

The Teracue IPTV encoder products will be showcased at ISE 2012 Amsterdam January 31st to February 2nd on stand 1.E80.
It is a compact encoder for digital signage streaming applications. Digital Signage content can be sent live in HD over the IP network or the Internet.
The H.264 SD/HD video encoder processes DVI with analogue audio and HDMI with embedded audio signals. With the ENC-300 streaming of video resolutions up to full HD format can be realized. Special DVI formats, such as 1600x1200 or 1920x1200, can also be processed.
In the Digital Signage sector, the output of a Digital Signage PC player is captured with the ENC-300 encoder. Advertising and infotainment content can then be transmitted to hundreds of television sets or to PC users. A typical example is its use in hotel casinos. Selected digital signage content from the casino can be provided as additional television channels in hotel rooms via the IPTV system.
The playback of the HD signage content is possible on cost-effective standard IPTV set-top boxes, such as the Amino 140 series. An individual video data stream can be sent to as many end devices as required, by using multicast stream transmission.
ENC-300-DVI-portable encoders are used for efficient 24/7 real-time streaming applications and can also be used under difficult environmental conditions.
They have an extended temperature range, a power consumption of less than 10W, have no moveable parts and can be operated completely noiseless. The encoder also offers a DVI/HDMI loop-through output to monitor the input signal.
