--

nablet, a leading provider of media processing technologies, announced today that it has licensed its H.264 codec to Foundry, the leading developer of creative software for the digital design, media and entertainment industries. nablet codecs are designed for optimized quality and performance on multi-core systems.

For example, the H.264 codec offers industry-leading quality and performance with approximately 20 percent faster long GOP encoding, or up to 30 percent less CPU usage for the same profiles than competing solutions.

We are proud that such a renowned company as Foundry has chosen nablet codecs, said Muzaffer Beygirci, CEO of nablet. Their products are the industry standard for high-quality visual effects, used in award-winning movies, TV shows and commercials. We are happy that their clients can benefit from nablet technology.

Nuke 12.2 introduces a new consolidated MOV Read and Writer to the Nuke family, including more performant H.264 encoding across all operating systems thanks to the nablet codec. The nablet team has been incredibly responsive and the quality of their codec speaks for itself. We look forward to working with nablet on future codec support, said Christy Anzelmo, Director of Product - Compositing and Finishing at Foundry.

nablet offers a wide variety of codecs and related component SDKs which offer easy integration, optimal quality, and excellent performance while requiring fewer resources than competing products. nablet SDKs are available with fair, no-hassle pricing models, and are used by many prominent companies.

In addition, nablet provides the well-known Sony format plugins for Avid Media Access, and the ARRIRAW AMA plugin.
