Almatel launches new HEVC DTH service

Cable operator Almatel Kazakhstan, has launched a new DTH platform using the HEVC video compression solution from Harmonic.
The cabler, operating under the brand name Alma TV, is using Harmonic’s software-based Electra X advanced media processing platform to deliver SD, HD and UHD channels across Kazakhstan with increased bandwidth efficiency by leveraging the HEVC video codec. Alma TV will be able to adopt new formats and codecs in the future, including 4K/UHD.
“Our subscribers demand exceptional video quality. So, when it came to finding a solution provider for video delivery, Harmonic was the clear choice based on their extensive deployment experience, technology innovation and competitive pricing,” said Eric Franke, CEO of Almatel Kazakhstan.
“Being able to deliver around 140 SD and HD channels from the same DTH platform improves efficiencies and gives us a competitive edge in the marketplace, attracting new subscribers.”
“Alma TV was smart to launch its DTH platform using the HEVC codec, which provides a 50 percent increase in bandwidth savings compared to MPEG-4,” said Ian Graham, VP of sales, EMEA and LATAM at Harmonic.
“As pay-TV operators around the world look to launch UHD offerings, having a flexible, easily upgradeable media processor like the Electra X platform, with advanced encoding technology, will be key to their success.”

  1. Non-fiction ebooks that help to educate your audience on topics such as online marketing, business or other self-development areas, are going to sell far better than fiction books at the outset. Extensive formatting such as tables, paragraph styles and unusual fonts may be lost if you open a Word document in another program. Though paragraph and character styles apply to the whole document if left untouched, they don't have to. So, for instance, if you want the first three pages to be single-spaced, in Goudy, and the next three to be double-spaced and in Helvetica, you can do that. As for writing your eBook, I recommend you take it a day at a time, even if it's for 1 hour. Though the Kindle is at heart a reading machine made by a bookseller—and works most impressively when you are buying a book or reading it—it is also something more: a perpetually connected Internet device. Outsourcing isn't that expensive when it means you can avoid negative reviews on Amazon from people who can't read a poorly formatted Kindle book.

    However, the market is very saturated with too many authors and publishers who have build authority in the niche you might choose. DVD 2: This DVD covers topics like publishing the book on the Kindle platform, choosing the right niche, completing the writing part quickly, writing fiction as well as non-fiction books. DriveWorks will automatically execute a macro called CreateReports, after driving all the captured cells and prior to the new Document being saved. BookBaby charges for this service (giving you much wider distribution), Amazon does not charge to upload a book to the Kindle store directly. David Kingsbury, Assistive Technology Instructor at The Carroll Center for the Blind, lays out the key steps for preparing professional-looking Word documents using the two most popular PC-based screen reader programs: JAWS and NVDA. Another clue is that a lot of Word's features, such as the capability to preview format changes and document themes, don't work when editing an older document. Well for one, because we can scale 10x quicker and we are in the business of building a lifestyle business, not necessarily a full-time job. https://www.reviewengin.com/kindle-cash-flow-review/
