Matrox hardware-based H.264 codec cards provide multi-channel encoding/decoding in pristine quality and exceptional performance for Baseline to High 10 Intra profiles up to Level 5.2. In 4:2:2 10-bit, these cards can encode/decode up to four streams of 4Kp60 or 40 streams of HD; and in 4:2:0 8-bit, up to 64 streams of HD. Develop high-quality encoding and decoding applications up to 4K/UHD, for on-premises as well as cloud-based deployments throughout the broadcast chain with the Matrox DSX software development kit. The M264 family of cards provide complete CPU offload of encoding/decoding 4K XAVC Intra Class 300/480 and XAVC 4K Long 4:2:2 for 4K production workflows while the highest-end multi-socket PCs struggle to achieve just one real-time encode.
