Entropy Wave

Monday, April 27th, 2009

I see Christian outed my new company, Entropy Wave.  The mission of the new company is to create video post-production tools using open media technology for a wide range of users, including high-end studios, professional video editors, and hobbyists.  Most of our products will be based on open-source code, including projects I’ve been heavily involved with such as GStreamer, Schroedinger, Orc, and various Xiph projects.

Existing and upcoming products include:

  • A GStreamer-based Media SDK that allows developers to rapidly create and deploy applications on major platforms (Windows, Linux, OS/X)
  • QuickTime plugins for DiracPro (SMPTE VC-2)
  • A video encoder application geared toward content producers putting video on the web
  • A capture application compatible with Numedia’s line of DiracPro hardware encoders

In addition, Entropy Wave can provide support and custom development services in a variety of areas including open media.
