Adobe Flash Streaming

4 January 2010:   We are pleased to announce that the Streamonix SX.Streamer™ now has full support for delivering Adobe Flash video at multi-gigabit data rates.

Adobe Flash has become the de-facto standard for Internet video and this has created the need for a next-generation Flash video server with the performance and scalability to handle the largest Flash video streaming loads. The SX.Streamer fills that need with its extremely high performance integrated Flash video server that delivers gigabits of Flash directly over RTMP (port 1935) or via HTTP (tunnelled through port 80). Please contact us for details.

AVS Streaming

3 January 2010:   The Streamonix SX.Streamer™ now supports China's Audio Video coding Standard (AVS).

AVS is a high-performance digital audio & video codec developed by Chinese technology institutes and universities that rivals H.264 in performance, while offering substantially reduced complexity and dramatically lower licensing fees.

Based on an ITU proposal for carrying AVS video payloads in MPEG-2 Transport Streams, the SX.Streamer can now transmit thousands of AVS video streams in MPEG-2 TS media containers at over 16 Gbps. We have also added AVS support to our SX.NAS™ video storage system, which can now store, index and manage terabytes of AVS media files. Please contact us for details.

AVS is the latest addition to Streamonix's suite of supported video codecs, joining MPEG-2, H.264, VC-1, Motion JPEG 2000 and Dirac.

Motion JPEG 2000 Video in MPEG-2 TS Containers

2 January 2010:   We have added an exciting new enhancement to the Streamonix SX.Streamer — streaming Motion JPEG 2000 video over IP networks in MPEG-2 Transport Stream containers.

Motion JPEG 2000 is the primary compression technology for Digital Cinema, and is now emerging as the preferred codec for medical, military and satellite imagery applications. MPEG-2 Transport Streams are the most widely supported and deployed media container technology. Now both technologies work together. Thanks to a recently published ISO/IEC proposal, transmitting Motion JPEG 2000 payloads in MPEG-2 TS containers has been defined and is moving toward standardisation.

This new standard will create exciting new opportunities for Motion JPEG 2000 streaming — not only in entertainment markets, but also in the military and defense sectors. The US National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency's Motion Imagery Standards Board's (MISB) mission is to support standards that strengthen the interoperability and quality of military and other government video systems. All MISB compliant systems must support all MPEG-2 Transport Stream payloads — soon to include Motion JPEG 2000, the MISB's chosen codec for very high bit-rate video streams.

As one of the very first companies to stream Motion JPEG 2000 in MPEG-2 TS containers — in addition to MPEG-2, H.264, AVS, VC-1 and Dirac payloads — Streamonix is very well placed to offer MISB compliant systems to US government and NATO customers.

The SX.Streamer can transmit Motion JPEG 2000 streams in MPEG-2 TS media containers at over 16 Gbps. We have also modified our SX.NAS™ video storage system to manage, index and verify Motion JPEG 2000 payloads in MPEG-2 TS containers. Please contact us for details.

Dirac Streaming

16 December 2008:   Streamonix is pleased to announce full support for BBC Research's Dirac video codec.

Dirac is an advanced royalty-free wavelet-based video compression technology for creating video streams across a wide spectrum of bitrates and for a wide range of devices — from mobile phones to 4K cinemas.

Our SX.Streamer transmits Dirac video streams at over 16 Gbps. And our SX.NAS™ video storage system stores, indexes and manages terabytes of Dirac video.

Our systems transmit Dirac videos in MPEG-2 Transport Stream containers. Other containers are available upon request.

Streamonix at CEATEC 2008

5 October 2008:   Streamonix systems were featured in two booths at CEATEC 2008, Japan's largest technology exhibition.
