This free firmware updates the popular OmniStream AV over IP platform bringing enhanced video quality, decreased latency, fast switching, a reduction in Gigabit Ethernet bandwidth utilization, plus additional features. At the heart of this update is the new VCx codec that supports 4K60 4:4:4 video over Gigabit Ethernet; decoder Multiview for layouts at each decoder; Ethernet link testing; ultra-low encode-to-decode latency of less than 1 frame (<3 ms) for lag-free IMAG; encoder dual streaming over 1 GbE; and encoder thumbnails. The features are available across the OmniStream endpoints, now and for the future with now part numbers.
