MatrixStream has developed an end-to-end IPTV VOD solution that is designed to work over any IP network without QoS, such as the Internet. IPTV operators can install IMX IPTV encoders, middleware servers, live XMS streaming servers and set-top boxes and can provide subscribers with high-quality video quickly and cost-effectively.

For example, with the company’s IMX E4010 H.264 video encoders, service operators can encode videos using the H.264/MPEG-4 Part 10 video codec to make the most of their available bandwidth. MatrixStream’s MX 1 IP set-top box is designed with the latest video decoding chip and the ability to decode IP videos up to 1080p HD.

Using MatrixStream technology, IPTV or content providers are no longer limited to where they can distribute their video content. They can now distribute video content over the Internet globally, and consumers get access to instant video loading, so they won't have to wait for videos to load when streaming over IP. With IMX's XMS streaming protocol, IP videos can start to stream in as little as two seconds.

MatrixStream’s IMX E4010 H.264 video encoders make the most of their available bandwidth.

In addition, IP service subscribers have complete control of their viewing habits. They control what to watch, when they want to watch. And whether it is downloaded VOD or streaming VOD, viewers get familiar DVD features like fast forward, rewind, pause and stop.
