Ultra-HD Playout Solution Powered by New HEVC Compression
The emerging HEVC compression standard will pave the way for broadcasting in the upcoming ultra-high-definition picture format. At IBC 2013, Thomson Video Networks will showcase an HEVC playout system, powered by its own HEVC technology, which enables broadcasters to trial and demonstrate Ultra-HD content on their networks.

This innovative solution relies on both the ViBE EM4000 and ViBE VS7000 multi-screen video platforms as well as Thomson Video Networks Flextream 2.0 statistical multiplexing technology, which can bring significant video quality improvements by managing variations in video content bandwidth.
In addition, Thomson Video Networks will showcase its latest developments in the ad insertion capabilities of the Sapphire MPEG broadcast server.

At IBC2013, Thomson Video Networks will showcase both real-time and off-line HEVC encoding on the ViBE VS7000 platform for multi-screen and OTT applications, using MPEG-Dash packaging to tablets, smart phones and connected TVs.
High-Density and High-Performance Satellite and Telco Contribution Solutions
At IBC2013, Thomson Video Networks will highlight significant new enhancements to its ViBE CP6000 premium multi-channel video contribution platform for satellite and IP telecom contribution as well as primary distribution applications. With the ability to encode or decode an industry-leading eight channels of video in formats from MPEG-2 SD 4:2:0 up to MPEG-4 4:2:2 10-bit, the CP6000 is now available in both 1RU and half-rack configurations. The system also features a new DVB-S/S2/DSNG satellite modulator board as well as multiplexing and de-multiplexing built into both chassis.
