Sencore debuts new HEVC analysis product at Cable-Tec Expo 2013

15/06/2017

SIOUX FALLS, S.D., September 30, 2013 -- Sencore delivers new HEVC analysis capabilities in its Compressed Media Analyzer CMA 1820. The CMA 1820 is the ultimate tool for in-depth analysis of compressed media transport streams. Customers can see a live demonstration of the new HEVC analysis functionality at the SCTE Cable-Tec Expo in Atlanta in October.

Sencore Quote:

HEVC analysis is critical as developers look to take advantage of this bandwidth saving technology. We are seeing tremendous demand for encoder and decoder development and evaluation, the CMA allows for deeper inspection, frame-by-frame breakout, coding tree block structure, full header syntax, PTS/DTS timing and A/V sync analysis. said Jeff Briden, Vice President Product Management at Sencore.

The Sencore CMA 1820 enables designers, engineers, system integrators, and network operators to quickly and easily verify standards compliance, identify media interoperability issues, develop products around new CODECs, and troubleshoot transmission issues. With full support for HEVC/H.265, H.264, MPEG2, and VC-1 video along with AC-3, AAC, and MPEG audio, the CMA 1820 is well-suited for use with all contemporary broadcast equipment. Enhanced options such as closed caption subtitle, SCTE35-DPI and PTS/DTS alignment analysis can provide even more benefit to the demanding user.
