And the winner is: ATEME's H.264
MPEGIF (www.m4if.org), is a world-famous organization created to promote MPEG standards and ensure their interoperability.
ATEME is a member of MPEGIF since 2004 and has participated in the latest round of interoperability tests for ISO/IEC MPEG-4 AVC (also known under the name ITU-T H.264) organized by MPEGIF.
This new round of interoperability tests verified mutual encoder and decoder product interoperability among international leaders in video compression. This work aimed at being sure MPEGIF member products are indeed interoperable, thereby increasing product confidence on the market.
ATEME participated with its Baseline and Main Profile H.264 encoder and decoder. ATEME provided 16 Main Profile encoded streams to be decoded by the test attendees (30 companies). ATEME decoded all of the encoded streams provided by the attending companies thus proving the high interoperability level of its H.264 encoder and decoder products.
Those results have confirmed the interoperability of our H.264, already established by previous tests realized by several customers.
Those positive results have been strengthen by independent testing results (to be published soon - ask us for preliminary report) that attest ATEME's H.264 is the best codec available today on the market.
Another recent study handled by Doom9 (www.doom9.org) about comparative testing has been realized during December 2004. It included top 10 competitors submitting various video compression standards. Once more, ATEME's two participating encoders have been recognized as top quality products:
- The only competitor that offers no smearing trouble when bright text appears on dark areas;
- It exhibits the greatest amount of details, when other encoders often blur small details;
- It processes real-time encoding with a good quality;
- Bitrate regulation is very good;
- It supports AR signaling;
- It does not engenders color bleeding issue;
- According to people who carried out the comparison: "it's the best codec I've tested".
ATEME will showcase its H.264 solutions during NAB2005 show, April 18-21, Las Vegas, NV (booth SL3922).
