Socionext has developed an 8K/4K compatible media player equipped with the company’s proprietary 8K HEVC decoder chip.

Nicknamed “s8”, the media player will be offered to operators and service providers of video streaming for various applications including public viewing and digital signage, starting March 2018.

With the “s8” at its core, Socionext will build a total solution covering all pathways of 8K video distribution, from encoding, transmission, decoding to display, and make proposals based on the solution to expand the use of super-high definition video for a wider variety of applications.

Socionext has pioneered in developing the 8K/60p compatible HEVC decoder and ISDB-S3 digital broadcast demodulator chips and leads the industry as a provider for manufactures of advanced receiving equipment, aiming for commercial broadcasting of 4K/8K satellite broadcasting, which will start in 2018.

The fifth generation mobile communication system, or “5G”, is going to become available in 2020, and it is expected that more and more applications that utilize super-high definition video contents will emerge in a dramatic way.

Based on this background, Socionext has developed the media player “s8” for applications such as public viewing and signage that can make maximum use of the super-high definition and high image quality 8K video.

The s8, equipped with Socionext’s decoder SoC SC1400A, is capable of real-time decoding of HEVC 8K video inputs, handles not only the playback of locally stored contents, but also the live streaming of videos suitable for public viewing, such as sport events and concerts, with 8K super-high definition.

The media player is also applicable to decoding of 4K video with h.264/MPEG-4 compression, and up-converting of 4K video for 8K displays with super-resolution process.

In addition, the combination of the s8 media player and the 8K HEVC real encoder system, built with four units of 4K/60p HEVC encoder MB86M31 SoCs, enables the delivery of total solution of 8K video distribution, with Socionext’s products and technologies covering essential requirements over the all pathways from encoding, transmission, decoding to display.
