Veset is integrating MainConcept’s JPEG XS SDK into its playout solution in order to deliver live TV with minimal latency.
JPEG XS supports high bitrates (200Mbps+), making it ideal for live production, broadcast studios and video networks.
Adding the SDK to Veset Nimbus enables the solution to handle both input and output over IP networks as well as be compliant with SMPTE 2110 and VSF TR-07. Through the partnership, Nimbus users can also benefit from MainConcept encoders for both H.264/AVC and H.265/HEVC, said the company.
Speaking about the integration, Martins Magone, CTO, Veset, said: “JPEG XS is increasingly being used in live production, particularly for sports and news broadcasting where quality and speed are non-negotiable. We wanted to make sure Veset Nimbus users can take full advantage of the numerous benefits that JPEG XS offers so naturally we’re thrilled to partner with MainConcept to do exactly that.”
Thomas Kramer, vice president of product management, MainConcept, added: “There’s a growing demand for advanced compression technologies that enable efficient delivery of high-resolution and low-latency video in professional media workflows, JPEG XS is the perfect codec to meet those needs. By partnering with Veset and adapting our JPEG XS SDK for their Nimbus platform, we’re helping to accelerate that demand.”
