Features
Live production system
This system provides all-in-one software switchers that operate in the cloud or in on-premises server environments. This system creates an event for each virtual switcher. Creation of multiple events is supported, enabling you to perform a wide variety of video production by configuring and managing each event according to the application.
Operation is controlled from web browsers, allowing simultaneous control by multiple operators in different locations.
When producing live video, the required setup items are displayed for each operation, providing a visual indication of what you need to do next.
Scene function
You can save video, composited content, and settings as “scenes” on this system. Scenes can be created beforehand and those saved scenes can be recalled instantly, allowing you to perform on-air operations in a minimum number of steps.
Input/output
From among 24* external streaming input videos and four preconfigured video files per event, a total of 12** video sources can be used. Three*** streaming output destinations can be configured. With appropriate configuration beforehand, live distribution to various video sites can be performed.
*The number of streaming inputs can be extended up to 48 using an option license.
**The number of video sources that can be used can be extended up to 24 using an option license.
***The number of streaming outputs can be extended up to 33 using an option license.
XDCAM pocket integration (AWS version only)
When XDCAM pocket is used as an input source, tally can be displayed in XDCAM pocket when the video from the camera associated with XDCAM pocket in this system becomes the preview output/program output. The program output video of this system can also be monitored using XDCAM pocket.
Instant replay
Up to four streaming input video sources from among the external sources can be recorded internally, and a simple replay video can be played back from those video sources. You can also record input video as an MP4 file to use for instant replay simultaneously while recording the output (ISO recording).
Compositing multiple content simultaneously
Six separate elements can be superimposed and composited against a video source (background video). The range of effects can be expanded by using a different layer for each element according to the application and type of content.
- DSK: Composites an image on the upper-most layer of the program output. Two different images can be composited. Compositing input from an external graphics system is also supported. Used to continuously display an image, such as a program logo, or when you entrust the operation of logos and on-screen text to a dedicated operator of an external graphics system.
- KEY: Used to manually show/hide an image to composite against a video. Can be used, for example, to display the name of a reporter or commentator only while the reporter or commentator is on-screen.
- PinP (Picture in Picture): Used to composite up to four separate videos in subscreens against the background video. Can be used, for example, to show the live video in a subscreen while a replay video is simultaneously displayed full-screen.
Audio adjustment
This system supports simultaneous handling of video and associated audio. You can adjust and check the volume of each audio source.
Audio commentary
Up to three audio-only inputs can be configured. Configured audio inputs can be used as audio commentary sources.
External audio mixer link function (AWS version only)
Allows you to send audio signals to a software audio mixer operating in the cloud and then receive the mixed audio signal back for use as the output audio (supports NDI High Bandwidth protocol).
File management function
Video clips and images for use with this system must be uploaded to this system beforehand. Video clips and images are managed separately in each event.
Tally function
Supports the function for displaying tally on multi-viewers and cameras (TSL-UMD protocol).
