Features & Benefits
Encoding
• Extend/record up to Full HD 1080p60 and 1920×1200 video and audio
• H.264 compression for high-quality, low-bandwidth AV-over-IP
• Support for wide-screen & standard aspect ratios and many resolutions
• Scale streams before distribution for lower bandwidth consumption
• HDMI or analog audio support
• Open encoding allows for third-party software decode (e.g. VLC)
Recording
• Record up to 1080p60/1920×1200 to NAS or shared network drive
• Control frequency and duration of recording
• Schedule the start time and date of recording sessions
• Recorded user-defined file name includes timestamp for easy file management
Network Management
• Operates on standard 100/1000Mb Ethernet networks
• Auto-detect and discover Maevex units on subnet (DHCP server required)
• Full/half-duplex mode and static IP address support
• CBR, VBR support
• Network bit-rate control (100 Kbps – 25 Mbps)
Failsafe
• Play back pre-recorded content at the decoder in case of a network disruption or if encoder stops streaming (e.g. loss of power)
• Programmable time delay before failsafe activates
Maevex API
• Integrate Maevex features in existing or new control software
• Based on easy-to-use .NET programming language
• Provided to select developers (no cost/license-free)
PowerStream Control Software
• Remotely manage Maevex network from different locations
• Conveniently access IP address, bit rate, and other vitals
• Fine-tune encode/decode parameters and adjust bit rates
• Scale & crop content to fit different outputs
Other Benefits
• Daisy-chain decoders & extend network via integrated network switch
• Failure resilience—power, network, and device auto-recovery features
• Full duplex RS-232 control (pt. to pt.)
• Reliable, solid-state, energy-efficient design
• Local real-time pass-through and confidence preview on encoder
• PowerStream-controlled user access from secured PC
• Detailed LED indicators for easy and effective troubleshooting
• Customizable bitmap for encoder/decoder splash screen
