Bandwidth efficient MPEG-4 video, encoded by MPEG MovieMaker 400, is a key enabler in a wide range of digital video applications. Offering high-quality video at low and midrange bit rates, MPEG MovieMaker 400, with its streaming capabilities, is ideal for organizations that want to implement archiving, monitoring, news gathering or training solutions.

The MPEG MovieMaker 400's Low Profile (half-height and smaller than half-size) PCI form factor, means that it can be easily integrated into any off-the-shelf standard PC. The encoder can compress two simultaneous audio / video streams, and folds into the standard feature-rich Optibase SDK. These features enable system integrators to build the MPEG MovieMaker 400 into any chassis and bring it to market as quickly and easily as with any off-the-shelf Optibase product.
