EVS & Altera Put the Instant Into “Instant Replay” for HDTV

EVS leveraged the power of programmable logic from Altera to deliver the world’s first live-production solution for high-definition (HD) video broadcasting. The cooperation between EVS Broadcast Equipment and Altera resulted in adding the power of Altera’s programmable solutions to EVS’ live production HD Video Server. EVS’ XT[2] platform relies on Altera Stratix and Cyclone FPGAs for high-performance, cost efficiency, and loss-less image compression. This advantage, combined with EVS expertise in video storage and broadcast production networks sets the stage for EVS to lead in live HD video production.

Building on their position as the leader in live slow motion (LSM) solutions for sports broadcasting, EVS’ XT[2] product brings the power and convenience of digital video server-based workflows to a wide variety of HD productions including news, sports, documentaries, and digital cinema. EVS was able to quickly develop and offer this leading-edge solution by relying on the flexibility and performance of Altera® FPGAs. Altera is at the heart of EVS eXTreme technology—the fastest LSM and highlights editing server in the industry—enabling their networked servers to set the standard for sports broadcasting.

"Altera's high-performance Stratix FPGA series delivers live-production video compression and several other time-critical functions in our XT[2] video server, enabling our customers to produce polished HD content quickly and efficiently.  Similarly, Altera's low-cost Cyclone FPGA series performs other processing and control functions, adding to the cost-effectiveness of our solution.  The collaborative relationship we share with Altera guarantees our access to the latest programmable logic technology and ensures that our products will always be at the forefront of innovation."
