Allegro's test streams have a worldwide reputation in the video industry for professional video conformance testing, especially for H.264. The compliance of MM2000 against Allegro's syntax and stress test streams certifies that CEVA's H.264 Codec is fully functional and reliable in terms of the H.264 standard specification. MM2000, a member of the Mobile-Media family of solutions from CEVA, is a silicon-proven multimedia platform for mobile devices supporting advanced video encoders and decoders up to SD resolution.
