Encoding quality controls
Several user controls are available to
adjust AV encoding quality, including
video resolution, video bit rate, frame rate,
constant or variable bit rate control, GOP
length, and audio bit rate.
Streaming presets for quick
recall of streaming profiles
based on target resolution or
bit rates
The SME100 provides 16 presets for
saving encoder control settings, so the
user can quickly switch between various
streaming profiles based on resolution or bit
rates. Eight of these presets are predefined
for common streaming applications.
Glitch-free switching
Switching is glitch-free with a cut transition.
Presentations are enhanced by eliminating
distracting visual jumps, glitches, and
distortion commonly experienced when
switching between computer and video
sources.
Internal test patterns for
calibration and setup
The SME 100 offers 15 test patterns as
well as on-screen display - OSD data
overlay including Time Stamp, average bit
rate, frame rate, time and date and system
information to aid in calibration and setup of
the encoder.
AAC audio encoding
Variable audio compression is available
to support different streaming bit rate
requirements.
User-adjustable audio delay
Audio delay can be adjusted to adapt
the streamed output to different network
conditions.
Ethernet monitoring
and control
The SME 100 is controllable over
the Ethernet connection supporting
configuration and real-time management
from Extron or third party control systems.
Embedded preview window
The SME100 provides an intuitive Web
interface with an embedded video window
to view the live stream as well as source
input and encoding adjustments.
Embedded Web page HTML
The SME100 Web interface includes basic
HTML code that can be copied and pasted
to quickly create Web pages for viewing
SME 100 AV streams on networked PCs.
RS-232 control port
Using serial commands, the SME100
can be controlled and configured via the
Extron Windows
®
-based control program,
or integrated into a control system. Extron
products use the SIS™ - Simple Instruction
Set command protocol, a set of basic ASCII
code commands that allow for quick and
easy programming.
Power Save Mode
The SME100 can be set to automatically
mute video and sync output to the display
device when no active input signal is
detected. This allows a display, connected
to the input loop-throughs, to automatically
enter into standby mode to save energy
and enhance lamp or panel life.
Low Power Mode
The SME 100 can be configured to operate
in a low power mode when an active signal
input is not present.
Standards-based H.264
/ MPEG-4 AVC video
compression
The SME100 employs the High Profile of
the H.264 / MPEG-4 AVC compression
standard which provides high quality
encoding, and can be interfaced with
compatible media players or decoded on
PCs using software media players such as
VLC or QuickTime.
DVI, RGB, HDTV, and standard
definition video upscaling and
downscaling
DVI, RGB computer-video, high definition
video, and standard definition video sources
can all be scaled to a range of defined
streaming resolutions. The SME100
features an advanced scaling engine that
preserves image quality when upscaling or
downscaling an input signal.
Available in two models
streaming at SD or HD
resolutions
The SME100 is available in two models: the
SME100HD and the SME100SD, which
stream at various resolutions optimized
for specific displays or applications.
The SME100SD streams at selectable
resolutions from 166x120 to 720x576.
The SME100HD streams at selectable
resolutions from 166x120 up to HDTV
1080p/30. Frame rates can be adjusted
from 30fps to 1fps.
Aspect ratio control
The aspect ratio of the streamed output
can be controlled by selecting a FILL mode,
which provides a full screen output, or
a FOLLOW mode, which preserves the
original aspect ratio of the input signal.
The SME 100 offers flexible control, scaling, and encoding capability to
support a wide range of streaming devices and destinations.
