Introduction

The V-Nova Platform is a Software-as-a-Service platform for encoding MPEG-5 LCEVC-enhanced VOD and Live streams using the x264 and x265 base video codecs. The platform provides a way to evaluate the uplift available in compression and transcoding speed efficiency by applying V-Nova LCEVC to your content.

Before you start, please note the following:

• To play back LCEVC-enhanced streams, you must use an application with an LCEVC-enabled player. Players that have not been LCEVC-enabled will only play the lower-resolution base stream.

• Either log in at player.v-nova.com, or download the demo apps from the Android, iOS and Windows app stores. Signing into these apps using your login credentials for the V-Nova platform will also enable you to view any encodes you complete on the platform.
