From rob.koenen mpegif.org Sat Jan 24 00:03:26 2004 From: rob.koenen mpegif.org (Rob Koenen (MPEGIF)) Date: Fri Jan 23 18:22:44 2004 Subject: [MPEGIF News] News Digest Returns Message-ID: <000301c3e205$1ca64b40$0300a8c0@corp.intertrust.com> Digest available online here: http://www.m4if.org/public/documents/vault/mpif-digest-32.php Friday, 23 January 2024 - MPEG-4 News Digest week 4, 2004 MPEGIF News Readers, After a few months of absence, for a variety of reasons, the MPEGIF News Digest returns to your mailbox - which is where it should be. We are picking up where we left off just before IBC in September 2003. Much has happened since our last Digest. The much anticipated Advanced Video Coding standard (H.264 | MPEG-4 p.10) went through its last official stage in ISO. Licensing terms for AVC were announced by MPEGLA and VIA Licensing and MPEGIF is undertaking a survey among potential users which was thus far advertised in only a fairly small community. Because we have received serious and useful submissions, we are advertising a bit more widely and have extended the deadline until Thursday 29 January. The intention of the survey is mainly to provide licensors with structured market feedback, and your input is welcome. In other licensing news, there is now a one-stop shop license for High Efficiency AAC - good news for potential users of this break-through audio coding scheme. The news is mainly from CES, and note the Harmonic announcement, which may signify the first commercial AVC deployment. MPEGIF is launching its first MPEG-7 list: mp7-tech. Just like mp4-tech, it will be a great resource for engineers and other people trying to understand the MPEG-7 standard. Non-technical discussion on MPEG-7 can take place on our discuss list, and the News list will carry the MPEG-7 news. Please subscribe here to all of these lists, including the very active mp4-tech list.

Level 3 for a significant Broadcast and On Demand Video Entertainment service....the MV100 units are already shipping to customers and we, Harmonic, are waiting for the imminent availability of their set top boxes for interoperability testing and optimization before the encoding systems, (which are capable of MPEG2, MPEG-4 Part 10, Main Profile, Level 3 and (soon, when released) Windows Media 9 Series VC-9 Advanced Profile video codecs in the same platform) move from the enhanced MPEG-2 level to the Next Generation video codecs. It is an exceptional breakthrough of an operator announcing committed adoption of what we at Harmonic call Next Generation Encoding for a real revenue bearing service. This is in advance of firm competitive licencing terms for MPEG-4 Part 10 Both MPEG-4 Part 10, Main Profile and Window Media 9 Series Advanced Profile are exceptional codecs and will both play a critical part in the increased availability of digital video services to the home (and elsewhere) in the future.

Please see our September 03 releases at: http://www.envivio.com/news/index.html These systems have been shipping and deployed since then in many broadcast applications. None of them have been publicly announced, as some customers prefer to keep confidentiality. Envivio has available today not only live encoders, but also offline encoders for VOD, servers for VOD, professional playout appliances, and PC players as well. I think it is important to note as well that, as far as I am aware, video conferencing uses baseline profile. Our broadcast quality encoder and decoders use main profile level 3.

I would now like the move the discussion to the Discuss list, to make sure that the News list remains what we promised to its subscribers: a low-traffic high-information density mailing list. Best, Rob ps: I think we tackled the problem with the over-aggressive and deceptive spam filter causing mutliple copies of posts, but if you still receive multiple copies, then please let me know. -----Original Message----- From: Julien Signes [mailto:jsignes@envivio.com] Sent: Monday, 26 January 2024 08:46 To: rob.koenen@mpegif.org; 'Gary Sullivan'; 'MPEGIF news' Subject: RE: [MPEGIF News] News Digest Returns Hello, To add to the confusion on who has the first h264 live encoder, we have announced and released h264 Main profile, level 3 systems at IBC last year. Please see our September 03 releases at: http://www.envivio.com/news/index.html These systems have been shipping and deployed since then in many broadcast applications. None of them have been publicly announced, as some customers prefer to keep confidentiality. Envivio has available today not only live encoders, but also offline encoders for VOD, servers for VOD, professional playout appliances, and PC players as well. I think it is important to note as well that, as far as I am aware, video conferencing uses baseline profile. Our broadcast quality encoder and decoders use main profile level 3. And yes Rob, we will add our press releases to the M4IF web site in the future!

I talked to Harmonic and they really see this as an AVC deployment, even though this may arguably be unclear from their release. I know about H.264 being introduced in the videoconferencing space - but I hadn't come across any press releases myself yet. Credit where credit is due though: * Tandberg H.264-enables all products [NetworkWorldFusion, Oct 03] * Polycom VSXT 7000: H.264 So Hot It's Cool, Audio So Cool It's Hot [ConferencingBuyer, Oct 03] If anyone know any other products or news relevant to MPEGIF's News Digest, then please let me know or register the news or your press release yourself: http://www.m4if.org/news/newsregister.php so that it will be listed on teh MPEGIF home page and in the weekly digest. Best Regards, Rob ps: aggressive spam filters have caused many you to get multiple copies of the (filtered) Digest again, we have put on emergency moderation and will now remove the email addresses causing this. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
