Spectacular quality video encoding

dvcCast! reads and encodes video to over 75 formats in sizes from tiny to full 1920 X 1080, but the most exciting codec for video delivery over IP is H.264, which can now even play on a computer without Quicktime installed.

Imagine stunning, eye-popping, crisp and clear 720p HD video that starts playing within moments after the user clicks the play button, and makes most other web video, not to mention satellite and cable TV feeds, look like crap by comparison.

That’s what dvcCast! was born to do.

Wow! Look at the clarity and detail! You can now deliver HD video on demand to businesses or households with better quality than cable or satellite TV channels still stuck in the old MPEG2 standard. That’s what we’re excited about! And that footage was shot with a camera that sells for under $700!

dvcCast! is the only solution on the market that provides you with both the tools and the knowledge to create spectacular quality HD video for internet delivery.

The Video Preset Menu makes it easy.
