This powerful Codec Package enables your applications to read, write and edit MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 streams in high quality with sensational speed. The SDK is ideal for consumer-level products and broadcast usage.
The encoder is full featured, and it is possible to have access to nearly every MPEG setting imaginable. It also includes pre-configured templates for VCD, SVCD, DVD, MICROMV, HDV, CableLabs, XDCAM HD, XDCAM EX, Blu-ray and other standards.
The MainConcept MPEG-1/2 Video Encoder meets the highest broadcast quality standards and includes professional features like transport streams, 4:2:2 support, 2-pass encoding and more. However, the SDK is so flexible that it can also be used to capture analog or DV material in real-time to MPEG.
The MainConcept MPEG-1/2 Video Decoder can process MPEG video streams produced by the MainConcept MPEG-2 Demultiplexer or by any other compliant filter, such as Microsoft MPEG-2 Splitter, MPEG-2 Demultiplexer or MPEG-1 Stream Splitter. DirectShow filters provide additional stream handling, such as reading from a file or network source and rendering it to a window or DirectDraw® surface. The filter can process Closed Captions (CC) and has a CC output pin. The CC data output is executed in a way suitable for decoding by the software Line 21 decoder filter which comes with DirectShow.
