Xvid Solutions has developed a product certification program to ensure a user experience that matches the uncomprising quality of the popular Xvid video codec. The program is royalty-free and has been launched in cooperation with leading IC manufacturers to guarantee highest compatibility and best video quality on volume products. It is hence consequently the most demanding certification suite available to the market.

In order to facilitate the creation of video targeted for different applications and playback devices interoperability profiles are implemented in the Xvid codec. The profile definitions cover all the features typically employed in different application scenarios and feature also more advanced coding tools like e.g. quarterpel motion compensation or custom quantization matrix.

Providing the highest compatibility and greatest feature-richness, Xvid product certification offers a positive differentiation for all high performant MPEG-4 consumer electronic devices.

Xvid qualified ICs / SoCs and Xvid certified consumer electronic hardware stands as a synonym for full interoperability and the best in quality as it has been designed to truly reflect typical user preferences in terms of content created.

In order to learn how your device could become certified, please write to certification@xvidsolutions.com to obtain more information on the Xvid profiles, the technical requirements and the certification process.
