XCode 2106

 

The XCodeTM 2106 is a single stream PCI Express MPEG encoder integrated circuit (IC).  The key highlights of the XCodeTM 2106 are:

PCI Express x1
Single D1 MPEG2 / 4 (ASP, SP) encode capable
Mirror encode – single 656 stream can generate two streams with same content at different formats
Pixel-based motion adaptive 3D comb-filter and temporal/spatial filter
Transport stream I/O for ATSC, DVB-T and ISDB-T support

Core Technologies

 

MPEGPerfectionTM technology redefines low-bitrate compression giving DVD quality encoding at 1.5Mbps - less than a third of DVD video bitrates

TurboMPEGTM technology allows users to convert formats, resolution and frame rates of pre-compressed video, at 2X-12X faster than real-time, to fit video to any viewing device
