Amlogic's SoCs often feature support for various video codecs, including H.265 (HEVC), VP9, and AV1, as well as HDR (High Dynamic Range) standards such as HDR10 and Dolby Vision. They also support multiple audio formats, including Dolby Audio and DTS.

The company is headquartered in Shanghai, China. Amlogic competes with other SoC vendors such as MediaTek, Realtek, and Qualcomm in the multimedia device market. The company's software support often includes SDKs (Software Development Kits) and firmware updates to enable manufacturers to customize and optimize their products based on Amlogic chipsets.
