Mobile Devices

XVD™ technology can be utilized for delivering high-quality audio and video content to mobile devices such as cell phones and PDA’s. For these types of applications DigitalStream-USA™ has developed codecs that require minimal amount of resources for play back. These have been implemented in software as either very small Java players or very efficient ActiveX controls. For a number of applications these players can also be ported to very inexpensive DSP’s for low cost implementation in mobile devices.

For audio applications, the XVD codec is optimized to produce very efficient file compression, creating MP3-quality audio at less than one-fourth the file size. This makes it possible for enabling a new class of mobile devices to stream music and audio content over wireless networks and existing mobile phone networks. Web enabled portable devices will be able to stream Internet radio or a music server with MP3 stereo quality.

For video applications, XVD can support delivering digital video of up to 24 frames per second over existing low-bandwidth mobile network infrastructure. This provides an opportunity for a wide range of high quality content distribution for mobile phones and PDA’s.
