The MAKITO is ideally suited for today's challenges and for those that can be foreseen well into the future. The MAKITO is based on the highly efficient H.264 compression standard saving over 50% of the bandwidth and disk space required by video-over-IP deployments. In addition, the MAKITO is equally proficient at standard definition (composite and s-video) as it is at all high definition resolutions and frame rates up to 1080p60. To accomplish this in a small form factor the MAKITO auto-detects the input of its single BNC connector and supports composite, SDI, HD-SDI, and 3G-SDI (the new standard for 1080p60). Today, the MAKITO can comfortably address video-over-IP encoding anywhere on a resolution / bandwidth scale from CIF at less than 256 kbps to Full HD at 15 Mbps.

Professional Grade, Rackmounted, Single or Multichannel, Standard Definition, Linux® Based Analog Video to MPEG-2 Transport Stream Encoder that Integrates Inexpensive PC Bus Based Standard Definition MPEG-2 Encoders and Routes Selected Transport Streams to any MAC Address via UDP, RTP, or HTTP. Encoder supports 480i and 480p with MPEG-1 layer II audio. Can Work as a Low Cost “Catcher” in Small VOD Implementations. Typically the desired streams are streamed in real time using UDP or RTP via IP multicast or unicast streams to IP set top boxes (STB's) such as Amino, or designated VLC or MPlayer equipped PC clients for viewing. Optionally Transcodes into H.264. This content server architecture assumes you have proper IP provisioning and this type of system is typically deployed in "closed" systems where bandwidth is dedicated. It is not designed to work over the public internet.

Standard Features:

• Encapsulates transport streams into IP packets
• Simultaneously receives analog inputs from one to eight video and audio inputs
• Uses multiple dual channel hardware based MPEG-2 encoders that support 480i and 480p video and MPEG-1 layer II audio
• Supports Standard Def analog input via CVB connectors and output in IP format
• IP Output – UDP, RTP or HTTP
• 200 Mbps IP raw output capability
• Optional 12 Mbps IP transcoded H.264 output capability
• Transmits PAT, PMT, and PCR meta data
• Receives and transmits in real time
• Remote configuration management via Web Browser and Secure Shell (SSH)
• Based on embedded Linux®
• Supports NTSC or PAL
• Can be combined with HD RF 8VSB receiver cards to create hybrid analog/digital head end systems
  

Applications:

• IPTV Unicasting or Multicasting
• Rebroadcast Direct TV or Dish TV when combined with Component to Analog converter 
• Telco TV
• ENG (Electronic News Gathering) – Stream content to and from remote locations
• Streaming to designated VideoLAN VLC, Mplayer, or Windows Media Player clients
• Internet transmission of movie or video “dailies”
