HIGH QUALITY ENCODING
Multiple file formats — Helix Mobile Producer — On-Demand
supports a variety of file formats. Supported file formats include
RealAudio, RealVideo, 3GPP Rel 5, and 3GPP2 Rel 6 and 3GPP2 (wireless
industry standards).
Multiple encoding formats — Helix Mobile Producer — On-Demand
supports a variety of video and audio encoding formats. For video,
it supports RealVideo, MPEG-4, H.263 and H.264 formats. For audio,
it supports RealAudio, AAC, AACPlus, Enhanced AACPlus, AMR (NB and
WB), QCELP and MP3 formats.
Variable bit rate encoding — This feature enables the video
codec to vary the bit rate throughout the clip, depending on the
type of content being encoded (high action scenes, low action scenes
etc.). This allows for more consistent quality of video encoding
for downloadable content, while keeping download times as short
as possible.
Video Scaling — For 3GPP, 3GPP2, and RealVideo output formats,
imported video files can be scaled to standard resolutions from
SQCIF (128 x 96) up to CIF (352 x 288). Helix Mobile Producer —
On-Demand can also encode RealVideo at up to VGA (640x480).
Prefiltering — Cropping, frame rate conversion, inverse telecine,
deinterlacing, noise filtering, brightness, contrast, and gamma
adjustments all combine to allow you to create even better quality
video.
Brand integration — Ability to burn logos as part of the video
stream/feed
EFFICIENCY AND PRODUCTIVITY
Input file support — Helix Mobile Producer — On-Demand
can accept a variety of filetypes for encoding. Supported file types
include AVI, MOV, DV, MPEG1, MPEG2 (with an additional DirectShow
or Quicktime plug-in), MP3, MPEG4 and WAV.
Intuitive GUI — Helix Mobile Producer — On-Demand has
an intuitive GUI which displays both the source multimedia content
and the encoded content in separate panels. You can visually observe
the encoding, and determine the start and end points.
XML job files — Define all of the settings for encoding (what
format, what codec to use, configuration for the specific codec
that you are using, bit rate etc.) in an XML file, for fast reuse
of the same settings for multiple input files.
User's guide & sample settings files — The included user's
guide will help you get started quickly, and will provide the information
you need to define your own preset and project files to provide
the best encoded content to your viewers.
HIGH-VOLUME MANAGEMENT TOOLS
Graphical Batch Interface — Designed for processing large
volumes of content.
Scriptable Command line encoding — If you prefer scripting
to using a GUI, you have the option of running the encoder from
a command line interface.

management system.
