As streaming services fight for territory and eyeballs they invest heavily to produce compelling original content, BUT no one can afford to deliver that content at a subpar audience experience.

The very competitive streaming industry is grappling with audience churn, experimenting with different pricing models and promotions to maintain its subscriber numbers.

To attain the highest level of quality, Bitmovin has the best encoder that’s supported by a variety of features. In this demo session, Technical Product Marketing Manager, Andy Francis, and Encoding Product Manager, Markus Hafellner, will walk through how to leverage the best elements of our Encoding solution.

You’ll learn how to:

• Enable Multi-codec streaming by combining AVC, HEVC, VP9, AV1 and VVC. We’ll display how to configure your encoding to match higher performance codecs with compatible devices, to deliver the best quality of experience for all audiences and viewing platforms, even with limited bandwidth.
• Create a content-aware encoding workflow: No two content pieces are the same and hence should not be encoded at the same bitrate. The art of content-aware encoding is to optimize the encoding ladder to the best possible mix of quality and bandwidth efficiency.
• Leverage quality-focused features: Cutting-edge visual experiences are business imperative for broadcasters and premium content providers. Bitmovin’s Next-Generation VOD Encoder has enhanced Dolby Vision HDR capabilities, supporting conversions to other HDR and SDR formats in a combined workflow.

The world of codecs is ever-changing with encoding technologies becoming standards nearly every year.

The latest codec to reach the standardization stage as defined by MPEG is VVC/H.266 which was co-developed by ITU-T, ISO/IEC, and Fraunhofer HHI.

In this discussion, Bitmovin is joined by our in-house codec expert and Encoding Team Lead, Christian Feldman, and one of the primary researchers on VVC, Adam Więckowski, from Fraunhofer HHI. They’ll discuss the general history of VVC, its latest developments, experiments, and what the industry can expect from the Versatile Video Coding standard.
