CCTV.COM is one of the most important parts of the report for FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022, and therefore become one of the most significant platforms for people to watch this great event. Sumavision (Stock Number: 300079) has prepared multiple products, including transcoding system, encoders to help CCTV.COM offer their users a great experience in watching football matches.
Low Bitrate & High Quality
The transcoding system from Sumavision (Stock Number: 300079) is based on CPU plus GPU accelerating technology, supports thousands of channels transcoding through a single device. This enables the low-latency and high-stability of content transmission through internet. Sumavision’s products use unique narrowband compression technology to realize low-bitrate, high-quality HD and 4K programs output. Thus, reducing the program bandwidth more than 50% and not influence the image quality at the same time, which greatly save the resources that used for transmission. Meanwhile, Sumavision’s transcoding system can do dynamic identification based on AI to support system conduct area-specified encoding. By using this technique, encoding resources can be mainly allocated to areas that catch people’s attention, and therefore improve the effect of image. The products support real-time image super-division technology, use machine learning algorithms to dynamically improve image quality and resolution. These techniques effectively resolve the problem of unequal program source quality, enable the users to receive high-quality image.
Cover Entire Industrial Chain
Sumavision's integrated media processing platforms
What's more, Sumavision (Stock Number: 300079) has also supported the UHD broadcasting of Qatar FIFA World Cup by CMG and provincial media groups.
