Rovi Celebrates 1 Billion DivX Device Milestone at IBC
2013年9月12日 - 4:01PM
IBC -- Rovi Corporation (Nasdaq:ROVI), driving
digital entertainment innovation, today announced the company has
achieved a significant industry milestone with 1 Billion DivX®
devices shipped worldwide. Representing multiple major consumer
electronics brands and over 30,000 unique models, DivX supported
devices include everything from digital TVs and set-top boxes to
smartphones and tablets. Importantly, this vast device footprint
helped produce an entertainment ecosystem that gives consumers an
extremely flexible and high quality video experience, while
offering service providers a turnkey solution to securely deliver
entertainment to a massive audience.
"This amazing achievement was only possible with the continued
support of leading consumer electronics manufacturers, service
providers, and a passionate audience of consumers. Together, we
helped pioneer advanced multi-screen video entertainment," said Bob
Shallow, SVP, product sales & marketing at Rovi. "We are now
focusing our broad range of new and existing DivX video
technologies and long-standing device certification program on
accelerating HEVC adoption, as exemplified by our demonstrations
and announcements at IBC."
At the Consumer Electronics Show in January, Rovi announced an
end-to-end High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC/H.265) development
program designed to enable companies participating in the digital
video value chain to take advantage of the latest compression
standard to reduce storage and bandwidth costs, and deliver an
optimized high quality viewing experience. Highlighting the
significant progress Rovi has made since CES, the company is
demonstrating at IBC a range of new products and updates that
incorporate the new compression standard, and hosting live
demonstrations of HEVC solutions in collaboration with other
industry leaders.
Introduced at IFA and offered as a free download for Windows and
Mac, DivX 10 is an innovative consumer software application that
allows consumers to easily convert videos to the new DivX
HEVC-based format. With built-in support for MPEG-4, H.264 and now
HEVC video, DivX 10 enables consumers to easily convert videos to
HEVC for playback across multiple screens, including personal
computers, consumer electronics and mobile devices.
Released in June, the MainConcept® HEVC SDK was one of the first
broadly available solutions for streamlining the integration of
H.265 into video applications and services in multiple
environments. As well as working to continue to improve HEVC format
quality and bitrate savings, the SDK v1.1 update adds real-time 4K
decoding and support for HM 11 anchor streams. These enhancements
are designed to increase the ease with which high-quality video
content is delivered through existing cable, Internet and wireless
channels, as well as dramatically reducing content conversion
times.
Other HEVC related demonstrations at IBC include DivX Plus
Streaming™, Rovi's adaptive streaming solution, which is being used
to showcase the delivery of protected HEVC content to mobile
devices. DivX Plus Streaming has been adopted by services around
the globe to add advanced features, such as 5.1-channel surround
sound, multi-language subtitles and audio tracks, to IP-delivered
entertainment and is also part of a new generation of DivX
solutions helping add to the 1 billion DivX device ecosystem.
As well as viewing Rovi's end-to-end solution for HEVC, visitors
to IBC can see live demonstrations of Rovi's other solutions
driving the advanced discovery and monetization of digital
entertainment at Stand 5.A31, September 13-17, in Amsterdam. For an

Expected to have a significant impact on video distribution and
consumption, HEVC is designed to offer almost double the
compression efficiency of H.264 and therefore reduce storage and
bandwidth costs, as well as support higher resolutions such as
4K.
