The new solution is 10x faster for the same encoding quality, resulting in immediate associated cost savings when running Beamr CABR on NVIDIA GPUs in the Cloud.

Key Points: 
  • The new solution is 10x faster for the same encoding quality, resulting in immediate associated cost savings when running Beamr CABR on NVIDIA GPUs in the Cloud.
  • NVIDIA NVENC is a high-quality, high-performance hardware video encoder that is built into most NVIDIA GPUs.
  • NVENC offloads video encoding to hardware, and provides extreme performance for applications such as live video encoding, cloud gaming and cloud storage.
  • Beamr has also refactored its CABR technology to run on NVIDIA GPUs at ultra-fast performance, matching the performance of NVIDIA NVENC, enabling 10x more cost efficiency than software-based content-adaptive encoding.
