ADS Tech has announced their new video transfer accelerator, the Instant Video To-Go. Thanks to its hardware accelerator, the Instant Video To-Go is able to convert videos 5x faster than real time.
ADS Tech (www.adstech.com) announced today Instant Video To-Go, the industry's first hardware-based H.264 conversion solution for PCs. Featuring the superior quality encoding that has made ADS Tech's growing line of mobile player accessories so popular, ADS Tech's new video transfer accelerator provides the convenience of USB 2.0 connectivity in a small, compact device. The hardware accelerator incorporated in Instant Video To-Go enables consumers to convert videos for playback on Apple iPods, Sony PSPs and other portable video players up to five times faster than real time.
With Instant Video To-Go, a 100-min./2GB MPEG2 or VOB video file can be converted into high-quality (320x240), H.264 video in approximately 20 minutes. The same video would require about 5 hours to convert with software encoding.
The Instant Video To-Go is available now for a suggested retail price of $79.95. More information is available on ADS Tech's website.
