Computers are great at automating repetitive tasks, right? But many of us encoding professionals spend a great deal of time repeating the same actions again and again. We point-and-click to set the ...

Video encoding is one of the most challenging problems faced by current video SoC designers due to very high computation complexity and data bandwidth requirements. This challenge gets compounded by a ...

One of the more time consuming aspects of getting all our digital media in one place is ensuring quality and compatibility across different devices, which sounds like exactly the problem faced by our ...

Video transcoding is basically the process of converting videos from one digital encoding format to another. You can also call it Video encoding. This process involves converting the video file format ...

Low-cost FPGAs are now making it possible to implement high- performance encoding systems on a cost-effective and low-power FPGA fabric. This enables systems with the right combination of power, ...

I discovered something interesting in the video encoding app Handbrake today. When you encode a video, you can select between several encode options. The most obvious choices are H.264 and H.265. The ...

The impact of H.264 on the world of digital video compression is growing. Companies such as Apple are already switching wholeheartedly to it. As part of the MPEG-4 standard (part 10), H.264 is now a ...
