SPIN ENC LIVE
Real-time VVC and HEVC software encoder optimized for high-end live applications in UHD broadcast, Internet streaming, and immersive media.
A state-of-the-art real-time VVC and HEVC software encoder that provides high compression and quality combined with high processing efficiency oriented towards live applications.
With a flexible and cutting-edge CPU design the encoder is optimized for next-generation media applications such as UHD (4K, 8K) broadcast and streaming, and VR/360° immersive live experiences.
Spin Enc Live is a complete encoder that includes: SDI and IP capture, pre-processing, VVC and HEVC video encoding, MPEG-H Audio and AAC encoding, and streaming for HTTP and IP delivery, combined with an easy-to-use web interface.
Key Features
ADVANCED VVC AND HEVC SOFTWARE ENCODERS
Based on Spin Digital’s advanced decision algorithms for fast encoding combined with highly optimized implementations designed to scale to many CPU cores and fully utilize the latest SIMD media instructions.
HIGH-END LIVE ENCODING
Real-time compression for 4Kp60/120, 8Kp60/120, and beyond (12K) video formats, with higher compression efficiency than other real-time software and hardware-accelerated encoders.
PROFESSIONAL VIDEO
Support for distribution and contribution formats with 4:2:0 and 4:2:2 chroma sampling.
PERCEPTION-OPTIMIZED ENCODING
Includes a novel quality optimization mode designed to increase the perceived quality of challenging video when compressed at distribution bitrates.
ADAPTIVE BIT RATE (ABR) LIVE STREAMING
From a single live source several versions of the content with different resolutions and bitrates can be encoded in real-time and streamed simultaneously for ABR applications over the Internet.
8K-TO-8K LIVE TRANSCODING
Enables real-time transcoding of an 8K-UHD contribution stream into an 8K-/4K-UHD distribution format.
SUPPORT FOR THE ARIB STANDARD (STD-B32)
Broadcasting of HEVC video in 8K resolution for the Japanese Super Hi-Vision format.
NEXT GENERATION AUDIO (NGA)
Support for the MPEG-H Audio format enabling immersive and personalized audio experiences for broadcast and new media services.
DESIGNED FOR LIVE APPLICATIONS
Provides key features for live workflows in broadcasting and Internet streaming, including: real-time operation mode, HRD model compliance, broadcast-level CBR control, and constrained VBR control.
FLEXIBLE INPUT INTERFACE
Input capture based on SDI interface and TS-over-IP protocols.
MULTIPLE STREAMING FORMATS
Output delivery for broadcast and Internet streaming using TS-over-IP (UDP, RTP, SRT, RIST, Zixi) and HTTP streaming (HLS, DASH).
CLOUD STREAMING SUPPORT
Delivers TSoIP streams compatible with AWS MediaConnect, and HLS/DASH streams over AWS S3, AWS Elemental MediaStore, and CloudFront.
LOW-LATENCY
Specially optimized to guarantee minimal latencies in both high-efficiency (long GOP) and low-delay (short GOP) operation modes.
COST-EFFECTIVE
Software solution based on standard server platforms that are easy to deploy and scale.
