Video software solutions provider Synamedia announces technology capable of encoding and broadcasting an Ultra HD 8K signal in real time. An important step that avoids the compromises that until now have reduced video quality.
Real-time 8K encoding and streaming
Named Vivid, this new compression platform takes advantage of AMD Epyc 7763 processors, and dispenses with alternative methods such as the need to split an 8K signal into four UHD 4K signals, or to use hardware acceleration methods. With this “zero compromise†8K real-time encoding and streaming technology, content operators and distributors will be able to save on their operational costs and energy consumption. Enough to give a significant boost to the 8K market by allowing better distribution of videos at a reduced price.
