Vancouver, CANADA, February 17th, 2022 – WISI, a global leader in video technology, has announced the release of a new next-gen transcoding solution, which enables operators to process current video workflows as well as future-proof their networks with support for up to UHD/4K HEVC 12-bit resolutions.

WISI has expanded the Inca IP Video Platform with the new HXC-200 transcode module. The new module provides high-density transcoding of UHD, HD and SD services for linear and multiscreen adaptive bitrate (ABR) video delivery.

The Inca IP Video Platform is a live linear and ABR solution that specializes in bridging the gap between current and future video technologies. Video content can be transcoded between HEVC, MPEG-4 AVC and MPEG-2 to ensure compatibility with upstream and downstream equipment.

Key features supported by the new HXC-200 module include advanced de-interlacing and uprating to 60fps which increase output quality from interlaced sources, particularly high-action sports content, for multiscreen ABR delivery. Seamless integration is assured as all bitrate profile combinations required by industry-leading ecosystem partners are validated and supported.

Rapid configuration and deployment of new projects are made easy with VidiOS™, Inca’s award-winning user interface. This powerful management tool provides unparalleled stream analysis and monitoring, and includes video thumbnails, stream sample downloads, and detailed stream statistics.  

The HXC-200 module is available now for new and current WISI customers, who can upgrade current deployments and install the module in existing Inca chassis.
