Video Server supports up to 12 simultaneous streams.August 25, 2008 -
Multicast Video Server MVS-12 provides fully integrated system for simultaneously recording, storing, and distributing up to 12 channels of hi-res, real-time imagery using JPEG2000 compression standard at up to 30 fps. It is used with DGy codecs for encoding and decoding at origination and destination points, and adjustable interframe compression minimizes network bandwidth requirements. Other features include event marking, time code synchronization, and variable speed playback.

New High Resolution Multicast Video Server Model
August 9, 2008, Alameda, CA - RGB Spectrum has expanded its line of multi-channel recording and streaming systems with the new Multicast Video Server (MVS-12) twelve channel model. The MVS-12 is a fully integrated, high performance system for simultaneously recording, storing, and distributing up to 12 channels of high resolution, real-time imagery using the JPEG2000 compression standard.
The Multicast Video Server offers the capability to record and store multiple channels while simultaneously viewing the same imagery at multiple local and remote locations. It is used with RGB Spectrum's DGy codecs for encoding and decoding at origination and destination points to provide a complete, powerful solution for recording and monitoring requirements. Previously, the DGy system only supported a single encoded stream to be multicast. The Multicast Video Server now supports up to simultaneous 12 streams at full frame rate in any combination of incoming and outgoing streams.
In a simulator application, for example, the instructor could view critical data seen by the pilot on a real time basis while the same information is simultaneously being recorded on the MVS. Observers in other locations could view the same real time data. While this is occurring, a simulation that was previously recorded on the MVS could be multicast out to the debriefing room. A total of 12 simultaneous streams can be recorded, viewed, or replayed at up to 30 frames per second with this powerful system.
The Multicast Video Server provides innovative interframe compression to minimize network bandwidth requirements and transmit the video streams without overtaxing the network. Interframe compression allows the user to increase compression levels to reduce streaming bandwidth. Interframe compression functions by analyzing interframe redundancy and content changes. It exploits the similarities between successive frames, known as temporal redundancy, to reduce the volume of data required in a sequence of frames. The result is reduced data bandwidth during the network transmission with negligible affect on image quality.
Advanced features include event marking, random access, time code synchronization, variable speed playback, and jog/shuttle frame advance/reverse.
RGB Spectrum's recording and streaming technology has become the de facto standard in numerous mission critical applications such as simulation, command-and-control, emergency operations centers, missile testing, security, and telemetry. High profile installations include the F-35 Lightning III Joint Strike Fighter simulator program, the U.S. Army Future Combat Systems program, the U.S. Army Space and Strategic Defense Command, the U.S. Army Operational Test Command, and deployments on the U.S. Navy destroyer fleet, the Canada Navy frigate fleet, and the U.S. Missile Defense Agency.
