2022, SBTVD Forum approved a selection of technologies for SBTVD 3.0 which include MPEG-5 LCEVC, V-NOVA & Harmonic’s submission. In January 2022, ISO/IEC published a set of tests and procedures to verify whether bitstreams and decoders meet normative requirements specified in the MPEG-5 LCEVC part 2 standard in order for implementers of LCEVC to be able to test the functioning and verify the conformance of their implementations. Stefano Battista, Guido Meardi, Simone Ferrara, Lorenzo Ciccarelli, Massimo Conti and Simone Orcioni are the co-authors of Low Complexity Enhancement Video Coding (LCEVC) Standard. Current schedule October 2018: Call for Proposals March 2019: Evaluation of the proposals received and first draft of the standard October 2019: Ballot issued for Committee Draft April 2020: Ballot issued for Draft International Standard October 2020: Completion of final standard Publishing of standard (ISO/IEC 23094–2) Software Red Pro Platform NETINT Technologies Transcoders With MPEG-5 LCEVC Hardware Xilinx has already incorporated LC EVC technology into its chipsets. Broadcast The Brazilian SBTVD Forum will adopt MPEG-5 LCEVC in its future broadcast television system, TV 3.0, expected to launch in 2024. A base layer encoded with VVC (H.266) will be used for broadcast and broadband delivery. License Licensing is free for integration in software players, but broadcaster or encoder-side use of enhancement layers is subject to fees.
