Elemental Technologies is Transcoding Video in "Record Time," The New York Times

SAN FRANCISCO -- At the NewTeeVee conference this month, we caught up with Sam Blackman, CEO of Elemental Technologies. The company has launched a new server appliance for transcoding live HD video at very fast rates, "faster than real time," the company says.

New York Times reporter Ashlee Vance wrote last week that Elemental Technologies, which uses Nvidia chips for its processing....."can encode video streams in record time and do it with less hardware."

Here's a profile of the Portland, Oregon-based company by Liz Gannes in NewTeeVee from earlier this year.

hi,
The first product out from Elemental is consumer oriented, will arrive sometime before September and is expected to cost between $30 and $100, depending on the features. The software will allow consumers to take HD inputs such as a Blu-ray disc or homemade HD video and rip it to a computer, iPod or other device five to 10 times faster than existing technologies using the CPU.
