Turbo-Charge Your Windows Media Video (WMV) Encoding
The Tarari® Encoder Accelerator dramatically accelerates encoding of high quality Standard Definition and High Definition Windows Media Video (WMV), Microsoft’s implementation of SMPTE VC-1.

Hardware-Assisted Acceleration
Faster turnaround with hardware-assisted acceleration from Tarari® means film and TV post-production facilities, broadcasters, and IPTV providers can now provide significantly more throughput, maximising the return on encoding resources and while cutting costs.

WMV/VC-1 Encoding
Microsoft’s superior Windows Media Video compression technology has made PC HD video possible, now Windows Media encoding Powered by Tarari® makes it practical.

Tarari and Microsoft partnership is your advantage
Tarari is a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner. We work directly with Microsoft in Redmond to implement algorithms from the Microsoft Windows Media Codec in Tarari’s re-configurable silicon. This partnership safeguards your investment in Tarari technology and ensures the Tarari Encoder Accelerator will maintain compliance with Microsoft’s Windows Media/ VC-1 codecs.

Superior quality encoding
Tarari’s hardware version of the highest quality Microsoft video encoding algorithms ensures you always get the highest quality encoded video output – at accelerated encoding speeds.

Tarari does the heavy lifting – and CPU offload
Since Tarari’s technology is designed to perform compute-intensive functions such as motion estimation much faster than general-purpose CPUs, encoding is faster. By offloading algorithms which take the most CPU cycles, Tarari technology frees the CPU for other tasks resulting in increased overall system productivity.

Encode multiple streams simultaneously
The Tarari Encoder Accelerator provides improved encoding efficiency when encoding multiple video streams using a single Tarari Encoder Accelerator board.

Automatic Seamless Integration
The Tarari Encoder Accelerator provides seamless acceleration for WMV/VC-1 encoding applications based on the Microsoft Windows Media Format SDK—without the need for any special scripting or “digital glue.” Simply install the Tarari Encoder Accelerator and the encoding process will be faster!
