Vela designs and manufactures a wide range of broadcast-quality MPEG-2 and H.264 video encoders and decoders, for both standard and high definition. Its extensive background in the cable and broadcast markets, as well as its presence on the ANSI NCITS L3-1 (MPEG) Committee and Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) Project, has made Vela a leader in video compression technology development.

Vela's encoder and decoder board level products serve a wide range of video environments.

Our encoders provide robust broadcast-quality multi-format encoding on the Windows and Linux platforms. The encoders are used in many applications including broadcast, post production, advertising, near video on demand (NVOD), interactive, point-of-sale, and corporate training.

Vela's decoders provide broadcast quality MPEG-2 and H.264 decoding for systems utilizing PCI or SCSI based architectures and are available for SD and HD formats. Vela's decoders are used in cable television head end decoding, broadcast server decoding, video training, advertising, cable TV spot and VOD distribution, video kiosks and jukeboxes, DVD playback, post-production, and many other applications.

Vela board level products are available with integrated MediaAdvantage end-user software applications for those wanting a ready to use solution.

For those preferring to develop their own application, our Software Developers' Kit (SDK) is available to integrate our encoders and decoders with our customer’s applications and workflows.
