French compression vendor and provider of software-based head-end solutions for IPTV and OTT Keepixo, has just announced that it has added support for Technicolor HDR, a single stream High Dynamic Range delivery solution to its Genova software and AL2000 transcoder products.
Of course at last years IBC Keepixo was one of the demonstration partners of Philips, as we reported then 1, 2,
3. Philips was then promoting its single channel HDR/SDR using dynamic meta data HDR transmission solution at the show to gain traction with potential licensees for its HDR IP. At CES Technicolor announced it was joing forces with Philips to market a joint HDR solution. Technicolor was taking on the commercialisation of the joint solution. However this announcement by Keepixo is the first since CES.
Technicolor HDR distributes all major HDR formats and unifies workflows so that all content can be rendered on any display. Technicolor HDR guarantees 100% backward compatibility with legacy Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) equipment, such as STBs and TVs. This makes it possible for end-users to enjoy a consistent experience on existing and emerging devices while preserving the original intent of content creators.
"The deployment of HDR by service providers throughout their complete broadcast chain needs to be done smoothly to ensure backward compatibility with legacy equipment." said Jerome Blanc, COO of Keepixo. "By working with Technicolor, we are able to prove the flexibility of our video encoders and transcoders to add different flavors of HDR technologies."
Keepixo will carry out a demonstration of an end-to-end HDR transmission using the Technicolor HDR premium delivery solution at its booth 1.C29, at IBC September 9-13 in Amsterdam.
