Broadcast Pix Introduces BPNet Cloud-Based IP Workflow Management for Video Production
New Service Enables Customers to Easily Upload, Archive, Convert, Preview, and Share Assets
Billerica, Massachusetts March 30, 2016 Broadcast Pix today introduced BPNet , a cloud-based IP workflow management system for all Broadcast Pix integrated production switchers. BPNet software provides easy access to the comprehensive service for sharing, converting, distributing, and archiving media files. It integrates directly within Broadcast Pix Flint , Granite , Mica , and Roadie switchers, and is also accessible to collaborators via any PC or mobile device browser. Broadcast Pix will demonstrate BPNet for the first time at the 2016 NAB Show (Booth SL7627), which runs April 18-21 in Las Vegas, Nev.
In addition BPNet expands media management inside and outside the BP ecosystem. BPNet provides a software foundation for all BP production products that unifies the three pillars of IP production Video, Control, and Data.
Video: BPNet-enabled switchers support traditional SDI I/O as well as new IP network input and streaming output options. BPNet supports new IP workflows enabled by Aspen, NDI, SMPTE 2022-6, and RTSP, and will support other emerging IP technologies as they become available for video at the contribution layer.
Control: BPNet leverages IP networks to enable unprecedented flexibility in production control using traditional and custom software switcher control panels connected locally or remotely via IP. It also provides access to the renowned BPView multiviewer, as well as direct control of the latest generation IP cameras, decks, and other devices. NAB attendees will see the first glimpse at BP Command, an intelligent tool for creating control interfaces for any production environment and technical ability.
Data: BPNet consolidates bi-directional data flow between BP switchers, clip and still stores, character generators, social media platforms, scoreboard information services, statistics, and many third-party tools.
Broadcast Pix CEO Kevin Prince said, Broadcast Pix integrated switchers are the trusted hub where production comes together effortlessly. BPNet extends the integrated concept beyond the bounds of the switcher to embrace video-over-IP and file-based systems that can exist locally, remotely, or in the cloud. BPNet starts with a simple concept eliminate the complexity of dealing with the formats, codecs, file sizes, FTP applications, and all the other things that make sharing media files a constant struggle. BPNet opens a new door for the production environment through which users will find untapped creativity, productivity, and collaborative potential.
