One of the hardest choices encoding technicians have to make is deciding between hardware and software. Hardware-based encoders and transcoders have had a performance advantage over software since ...

Video encoding is one of the most challenging problems faced by current video SoC designers due to very high computation complexity and data bandwidth requirements. This challenge gets compounded by a ...

I discovered something interesting in the video encoding app Handbrake today. When you encode a video, you can select between several encode options. The most obvious choices are H.264 and H.265. The ...

Low-cost FPGAs are now making it possible to implement high- performance encoding systems on a cost-effective and low-power FPGA fabric. This enables systems with the right combination of power, ...
