Like it or hate it, Ultra HD or 4K is making a big impact on the broadcast industry. 4K content has four times the number of pixels of full HD, making storing, transferring and streaming very demanding. This has significant implications for workflows.
The new HEVC/H.265 and VP9 video compression codecs are designed to help handle the challenges of UHD / 4K video. This talk will introduce you to these new codecs. You will learn:
- how the codecs compress and deliver 4K video

- how the new codecs perform
- what software and hardware support is available.
