OREANDA-NEWS. Tata Elxsi has unveiled the hardware implementation of H.264 ultra low latency (ULL) encoder and decoder with an assured end-to-end latency of 13ms. This is targeted for a broadcast delivery solution for high quality video content broadcasting and editing. The H.264 ULL codec solution features Tata Elxsi’s new subjective quality based rate control algorithm that is tested and quality tuned to broadcast content.

The modular design approach taken for this hardware implementation allows easy portability and maintenance. Tata Elxsi has implemented advanced algorithms to provide feature support for multiple video formats (1080i, 720p and 1080p), low lag transmission, scene change detection, intra column refresh, etc.

Tata Elxsi’s H.264 ULL 4:2:2 profile encoder and decoder on FPGA has undergone a rigorous testing and the output video quality has been benchmarked against the worlds best H.264 low latency hardware solution.

Tata Elxsi has also unveiled HEVC ultra 4K decoder software implementation for multi framework architecture.
