MONTREAL – Sept. 8, 2015 — Matrox® Video today announced that the Matrox M264 multi-channel 4:2:2 10-bit H.264 encoder card is now available. M264 is a half-length PCIe card featuring an onboard codec for unprecedented multi-channel H.264 encoding/decoding quality and performance from Baseline Profile to High 10 Intra Profile up to Level 5.2. Multi-channel motion-adaptive de-interlacing and up/down/cross scaling allow content to be repurposed into any resolution before encoding or after decoding, which is particularly beneficial for OTT workflows.
M264 offers the pristine quality needed for broadcast distribution, contribution and production applications. It encodes a single stream of 4Kp60 H.264/AVC intra-frame at 4:2:2 10-bit, up to 10 streams of HD long GOP at 4:2:2 10-bit or up to 16 streams of HD at 4:2:0 8-bit. Presets for Sony XAVC and Panasonic AVC-Ultra formats are provided. The card is designed for low latency and offers dynamic bitrate and GOP control to allow adjustments on the fly.
