Sixteen channels.
One rack unit.

Encoders for SDI, ST 2110 and HDMI, and decoders back to SDI and ST 2110. Half-depth servers, hardware encode on Intel GPUs.

Any mix.

Every channel an encoder or a decoder, in a desktop chassis. For the room that needs a few channels and has nowhere to put a rack.

The IPTV server holds the line-up and hands it to set-top boxes, phones and browsers. The transcoder turns it into an OTT ladder.

Designed, coded and built in Zagreb.

Every unit is designed, programmed and validated in Zagreb before it ships. The people who answer your call are the people who wrote the code.

On air today.

Not a roadmap. Units running in production now.

● REMI
Nova TV, Croatia

Remote production with our portable codec: the camera goes home over SRT, and the on-air return comes back on SDI in the same box.

16 × 1080p50
A playout centre with 20+ channels

Encoded in one half-depth 1 RU box and delivered to telco and IPTV operators.

Broadcast-ready
Verified on stream analysers

Streams verified as broadcast-ready on broadcast-grade stream analysers.

Bought once.
Yours for good.

Our own design and our own code, on standard hardware, from a small European vendor.

Our own stack

A feature you need is a conversation with the engineers who built it, not a place on someone else's roadmap.

More per rack unit

Sixteen channels in one half-depth box, and a field codec small enough to travel.

Hardware or software

Finished units, the same software on servers you already own, or white labelled under your name.

Perpetual licences. An optional annual SLA covers support and updates.

Every unit speaks MPEG-TS over IP, so they fit together in any order.

Try it on your own signals.

  1. Remote access first

    Your engineers get a running unit to look at: the interface, the settings and the output, before anything ships.

  2. A unit on site

    Then a box on your own signals for a couple of weeks, with a written report you keep either way.

  3. Buy the way that suits

    Finished hardware, software on your own servers, or white labelled. Perpetual licences, optional SLA.

See it working.

Tell us what goes in and what has to come out, and we will set up remote access to a running unit.
