MEDIAEDGE Encoder K1000S

This product is a video encoder that can input SDI signals from cameras/decks, etc., compress them into H.264 format video and AAC format audio, and distribute them to networks. It also supports SRT, the latest transmission format, and provides secure and stable communication such as communication encryption and retransmission in the event of packet loss.

Live broadcast delivery of high-quality video

By linking with MEDIAEDGE Server and MEDIAEDGE IP Transponder, MEDIAEDGE-Decoder and USDP series MediaEdge players can stably stream high-quality video.

Supports the latest streaming protocol “SRT”

It supports the next-generation transmission protocol “SRT”, which achieves a high level of network correction in preparation for packet loss in a severe network environment. At the same time, it also supports encryption of stream data, providing secure and reliable communication.

Powerful encoding capabilities and wide range of bitrate settings

With the adoption of a high-performance chipset and the latest technology such as dynamic noise reduction and high image quality processing technology, it is possible to select a wide range of bit rate values. At low bitrates, the image quality at 1Mbps@720p and 1.5Mbps@1080p is greatly improved. In addition, state-of-the-art video buffering and FEC technology enable stable encoding with low latency. The bitrate adjustment value is 64Kbit/s to 40Mbit/s. The input signal corresponds to 59.94i (interlace) of general video equipment such as cameras.

Multiple stream output, custom overlay display function

It supports simultaneous output of multiple streams, the main stream supports resolution up to 1080p60Hz, and the sub-stream output resolution up to 720p60Hz.

In addition to the main RTSP stream format, you can select the 4 types of protocols listed on the right. He can stream in different protocols at the same time, and he can output multiple streams within the limits of his streaming capabilities.

Japanese text and graphic data can be overlaid on the encoding screen, and the display position and size can be adjusted.

Compact size & high cost performance

It has a compact design with a width of 13 cm or less and a depth of 9 cm or less. In addition, it is a fanless silent design. By thoroughly reducing costs, we have realized more functions than ever before at about half the price of conventional products.

Standalone operation as a live encoder

If you input the video to the Encoder K1000S and install the free software “VLC” on the PC, you can watch the video on the PC by network transmission by RTSP communication.
* Please use VLC 3.011 or later. VLC is free software and is not supported.

Can also be used as a live encoder for SNS distribution platforms

In addition to the RTSP method, it supports the most popular and versatile transmission methods such as HLS and RTMP. It can be used by many people with SNS video distribution such as YouTube.
