The Era of All-in-One Software Encoding & Transcoding

In the fast-evolving world of broadcast and live production, flexibility and efficiency are everything.

Broadcasters and media professionals need reliable, software-based solutions that can seamlessly adapt to different workflows—whether it’s high-quality IP-based production, remote cloud broadcasting, or frame-rate conversion for global distribution. That’s where Comprimato’s all-in-one software encoding and transcoding comes in, offering the ultimate Swiss Army knife for modern media processing.

At NAB 2025, we’re showcasing how our versatile software solutions simplify workflows, reduce infrastructure complexity, and provide best-in-class performance for professional broadcasters.

Let’s take a closer look at the key use cases that make Comprimato the go-to choice for media professionals worldwide.

ST-2110 Encoder: SMPTE 2110 Done Right

As broadcasters continue to transition to IP-based workflows, the ST-2110 standard has become the backbone of modern video transport. Comprimato’s Twenty-One Encoder ensures seamless, high-quality encoding that fully supports SMPTE 2110, offering precise, low-latency video streaming with full interoperability across industry-leading IP infrastructures.

This technology reduces reliance on legacy SDI, streamlines production pipelines, and enhances scalability. Ideal for live production studios, OB trucks, and remote broadcasting environments, it delivers top-tier encoding for professional IP workflows.

NDI Encoder: Powering Next-Generation IP Workflows

For broadcasters leveraging NDI (Network Device Interface), efficient encoding is crucial for optimizing both quality and bandwidth. Comprimato’s Live Transcoder provides high-performance encoding, ensuring ultra-low latency and pristine visual fidelity for NDI-based live productions.

With seamless integration between NDI and ST-2110, it supports live event production, multi-camera streaming, and hybrid workflows.

Cloud Production Bridge: Simplifying Remote Broadcasting

Cloud-based production is redefining how live events are produced, allowing remote teams to collaborate and process video content without physical limitations. The Cloud Production Bridge, powered by Comprimato Live Transcoder, enables efficient and scalable remote production workflows.

This solution bridges on-prem and cloud-based production environments with seamless, low-latency video transport, making it ideal for remote production teams and cloud-first broadcastersRead how Comprimato & Vizrt are simplifying cloud remote production.

Frame-rate Conversion: Breaking Global Barriers

Live sports and international broadcasts demand smooth, high-quality frame-rate conversion to ensure consistent video quality across different regions. Comprimato’s cloud-based frame-rate conversion enables real-time conversion for 4K and HDR content, making it a must-have for global broadcasters.

This technology ensures seamless playback across different frame rates, such as 50fps (Europe) vs. 60fps (North America), and is widely used by sports broadcasters, OTT streaming services, and international media distributorsSee how it powered 4K sports streaming from France to Japan.

SDI Encoder: Bridging Traditional and IP Workflows

While the shift to IP-based workflows is in full swing, many broadcasters still rely on SDI infrastructure. Comprimato’s Bridge Live, developed in collaboration with AJA Video Systems, offers an efficient way to integrate high-performance SDI encoding into modern hybrid production environments.

This solution provides a seamless transition from SDI to IP-based workflows without sacrificing quality, making it an essential tool for broadcasters who need to encode SDI feeds for cloud production, OTT streaming, or hybrid workflows.
