SUNNYVALE, CA -- (Marketwired) -- Aug 04, 2016 -- VITEC, a worldwide leader in advanced video encoding, decoding, and streaming solutions, announced today that it will introduce its new MGW Ace Decoder and showcase the industry's first entirely portable, hardware-based end-to-end 4:2:2 10-bit HEVC encode/decode solution at IBC2016.

VITEC's new MGW Ace Decoder will make its debut at IBC2016. This professional-grade, compact HEVC/H.265 decoder delivers broadcast-quality decoding of HEVC streams up to 1080p60 4:2:2 10-bit, supporting the most demanding and diverse video streaming use cases. It offers a robust panel of best-in-class connectivity options and two pairs of audio decode capabilities, with a unique, flexible FPGA architecture that supports ongoing video improvements up to 4K60p.

"IBC is a critical event for launching new technologies as customers are increasingly seeking out future-proof streaming solutions that improve reliability and optimize bandwidth," said Philippe Wetzel, CEO of VITEC. "With the introduction of the MGW Ace Decoder, we now offer the industry's first entirely portable, hardware-based end-to-end 4:2:2 10-bit HEVC encoding and decoding solution when paired with our MGW Ace Encoder."

New for IBC2016, VITEC will demonstrate the MGW Vision 4K/Ultra HD (UHD) HEVC real-time hardware-based encoder for IPTV, broadcast, and point-to-point distribution. With the MGW Vision, VITEC integrates UHD resolution with its high-quality, low-latency hardware-based HEVC/H.265 compression and streaming technology. Advanced HEVC compression enables users to stream UHD/HD video with up to 50 percent bandwidth savings compared to the H.264 standard.

VITEC's award-winning EZ TV IPTV and digital signage solution will also be on display.
