Handout for Producing and Distributing HEVC

Here’s the presentation description; click below to download the handout. The presentation video is at the bottom of the page. 

This session explores the current status of HEVC, identifying options for encoding live and on-demand HEVC and discussing player options in the streaming and OTT markets. Topics include the comparative quality and usability of HEVC encoders—including encoders from Cisco, Elemental, Harmonic, and Telestream— how HEVC quality compares to H.264 and VP9 (if encoders are available), and known trials and deployments of HEVC.

Here’s the agenda.
