Envivio Muse Offers Native Support for New iPad and Apple TV; Encoding Leader Envivio to Demonstrate MPEG-DASH at Upcoming Events

South San Francisco (PRWEB) March 12, 2012

Envivio Muse transcoding software, available on the Envivio 4Caster appliance or HP blade servers for IT datacenter implementations, supports native 1080p HD resolution for the recently introduced Apple iPad and Apple TV. Two channels in full 1080p and up to six sub-resolutions in Apple HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) can be delivered from a single appliance or blade.

As a result, viewers can enjoy a superior viewing experience on the iPads new ultra-high quality Retina display and pristine HDTV using their Apple TV system. Service providers and content providers with existing Envivio systems can easily upgrade their headends to support the new formats with a simple license upgrade, thanks to Envivios software-based architecture.

Envivio has been at the forefront of developing products geared for multi-screen video delivery for more than a decade, said Julien Signs, Envivios president and CEO. We were the first to offer an encoder that supported Apple HTTP Live Streaming, and continue to enable our service provider customers to provide high quality video to the latest devices and integrate new technologies such as MPEG-DASH.

Envivio is a member of the MPEG Standards Committee and MPEG-DASH Promoters Group, and will be presenting a technology demonstration of high quality MPEG-DASH adaptive bitrate technology at two industry events this month. Envivio is participating in the CableLabs Winter Conference, a showcase of advanced technologies for cable operators taking place in Philadelphia on March 12-13, as well as at the IP&TV World Forum in London, March 20-22. In these demonstrations, live video is encoded in an Envivio Genesis multi-bitrate transport stream using Envivio Muse, and packaged in MPEG-DASH format by the Envivio Halo network media processor. An Android tablet with an MPEG-DASH decoder client receives the adaptive bitrate streams, then decodes and displays the video.

Envivio now serves more than 310 customers in more than 50 countries.
