AVC-Intra Encoder

.

VSofts AVC-Intra Encoder IP core supports Class 50 AVC-Intra encoding, with Class 100 support coming soon. Fully compliant with the H.264/AVC and SMPTE standards, it is a platform-independent (Verilog) design, portable to ASIC and FPGA implementations.

AVC-Intra is a subset of the H.264 codec, intended to serve the needs of video professionals in storing and editing HD digital video. The new standard significantly outperforms the older HDV (MPEG-2-based) and DVCPRO HD (DV-based) formats, allowing the codec to maintain better quality in less storage space.

VSofts has developed a specialized Intra-mode decision algorithm, for achieving the highest encoding quality.
