DID YOU NOTICE WHY ULTRAFLIX WINS OVER THE REST OF THE LOSERS
Fortunately for the people who stream (and view) the ultra high definition (UHD) content, the industry has moving the H.265/High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) compression.

HEVC reduces bandwidth requirements by more than 50 percent so the content will look great when it’s viewed over-the-air or IPTV/OTT. That’s important if the content industry is going to meet the entertainment demands of today’s audience.

Comparing content delivery to racing, Dom said, “It don’t matter if you win by an inch or a mile. Winning’s winning.”

UltraFlix streams more than 8 million pixels of resolution in 4K Ultra HD, compared to just two million pixels in HD. The software provides a remarkably superior viewing experience with incredible color, image edge clarity and increased depth perception. By leveraging a combination of the latest HEVC compression standards along with NanoTech's 4K Studios proprietary methods, NanoTech's UltraFlix streaming 4K Ultra HD software achieves up to 50 percent better compression than traditional streaming networks; effectively delivering the same 4K Ultra HD quality at nearly half the bitrate. With enhanced video compression, adaptive streaming and intelligent bandwidth management technologies, UltraFlix can stream visually lossless 4K video with uninterrupted viewing at under 8Mbps, making 4K Ultra HD available to most North American and European internet subscribers today.
