TO EVALUATE – Evaluate digital media software at no charge for 60 days with a simple click-wrap license.
FOR PRODUCTION – For certain Production Bundles, the license fee can WAIVED with acceptance of click-wrap license. License is available for review on the Request form. After your order is placed, instructions for downloading will be sent. The License will be presented during software download on MyRegistered Software (TI’s software management portal).
Texas Instruments’ MPEG-4/H.263 encoder software is a proven module that allows for high performance real-time video encoding. The ready-to-implement MPEG-4/H.263 codec reduces time-to-market because it can be easily integrated into a design without writing or debugging software. It conforms to the MPEG-4 standards approved by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), as well as the H.263 standard from the ITU.
The MPEG-4/H.263 encoder can be tuned for optimal performance in security or videoconferencing applications via flexible rate control. It is available in system tested codec combinations with a codec engine, DSP/BIOS, DSPLink and Framework components. The MPEG-4 is available in codec combinations including MPEG-4 SP decode in encode/decode example applications.
