HDX4 Filter Set
HDX4 Upscaling
Just one of the incredible features included in our technology is HDX4 Upscaling, a filtering method which literally improves the quality of a video as it is enlarged, making quality portable movies from tiny clips taken for or from mobile phones, and even HD content from PAL/NTSC Video-DVDs.
Unlike older techniques, such as Spline, Lanczos or Gaussian (all of which are, of course, still compatible with and usable in our technology), our proprietary technology, ODU (Object Detection Upscaling) brings forth a level of quality previously unheard of without an incredible amount of money, effort, and extremely expensive hardware.
Naturally, that which upscales can downscale as well. Our downscaler delivers previously unheard of quality in downscaling, allowing you to make necessary cuts to the bitrate without sacrificing picture quality.
Some other features of our HDX4 Video SDKs:
- Cropping: Enjoy a freely definable cropping area to remove unwanted parts of any given video
- Black Borders: Add black borders during video conversion and preserve the correct aspect ratio.
- User-defined background: Instead of black borders, you can use any pictures or graphics you so desire.
- Automatic color background: Add borders which, instead of remaining black, dynamically change colors based on the current video's color scheme.
- Nonlinear adaptive stretching: With nonlinear adaptive stretching you can imbue your application with the functionality to change the size of a video, preserve the original aspect ratio, and avoid adding black borders or "cropping" parts of the video. Through fully automatic intelligent stretching and compressing, your users can turn a 4:3 fullscreen video into a 16:9 widescreen, theater-style video.
All of our functions (with the single exception of ODU, Object Detection Upscaling) are able to be used in real-time application, which makes HDX4 ideal for usage in, for example, TV-, player-, capture-, and video conferencing-applications. Better still, all functions are designed to be portable, allowing effortless implementation into hardware.
