Allegro DVT’s E2xx family of silicon proven IPs is a highly optimized video encoding solution targeted at ASIC implementations in a wide range of process node technologies down to 3nm. It provides support for mainstream image and video formats including JPEG, H.264, HEVC, VP9 and AV1, at up to 8K resolutions.
Beamr’s patented, Emmy® award-winning CABR engine enables reducing the bitrate of video streams encoded by any standard video encoder, including the latest AV1 codec, by up to 50% without compromising perceptual quality. The reduced-bitrate streams remain fully standards-compliant, and can be decoded by any standard video decoder.
“For the past decade, Beamr’s CABR software solutions have enabled optimized video compression for our customers, resulting in an improved viewing experience, reduced network congestion, and lower TCO”, said Sharon Carmel, Founder & CEO of Beamr. “When developing our silicon IP implementation, we’ve found Allegro’s video encoders to be the perfect partner for integration, due to their superior video quality, high performance, and support for the latest video codecs. By integrating our CABR Silicon IP library with Allegro’s video encoders, we are now bringing the optimization benefits to ASIC providers, who can utilize them in all video applications from video surveillance and IoT to 8K live broadcasting, low latency cloud gaming and more.”
Nouar Hamze, Allegro DVT’s CEO commented: “The dramatic increase of video usage is forcing the industry to consider HW based video encoding solutions to control implementation complexity and cost. The integrated Allegro DVT E2xx/Beamr CABR solution provides our common customer base with the most advanced ASIC-ready option to further improve video compression efficiency. The combined solution is immediately available for evaluation through a bit-accurate software simulation model.”

Seiden Law LLP issues statement: Prosecuted by Press Conference: Declared Guilty Without a Charge, Yim Leak Family Asks UN Human Rights Experts to Hold Thailand to Its Own Treaty Commitments8.10.2026 19:26:00 EEST | Press release
Seiden Law LLP, chief global counsel to Cambodian businessman Yim Leak, announced today that Jared Genser, international counsel to Mr. Yim and his wife, has asked two UN Special Rapporteurs to send an urgent appeal to the Thai government. The request is made on behalf of the couple and their seven-year-old son.

Six Official Statements in Nine Months. No Charge Filed in Any Court. Between December 2025 and September 2026, Thai officials described Mr. Yim as the center of a criminal network on six occasions: at two press conferences chaired by the head of the Thai government, in the House of Representatives, and in three government press releases. The head of the Thai government said the network had been “found to have committed” offenses. Asked about the suspects’ lawy
