Bluefish444 to Demonstrate Video Over IP Software API for SMPTE 2022

--

Bluefish444, manufacturer of the industry's highest-quality uncompressed 4K SDI, ASI, Video Over IP & HDMI I/O cards, and mini converters, for the professional video industry, will be demonstrating their API supporting industry standard 10Gb NICs for SMPTE 2022 software de-encapsulation of SDI video on stand SL9021 at NAB Show 2018.

With the media industry migrating to Video Over IP technology, Bluefish444 customers have increasingly asked for additional access to alternative interfaces from SDI I/O provided by Epoch hardware. The IPConnect extension for the cross-platform Bluefish444 SDK enables new and existing Bluefish444 customers to access video, audio and ancillary data via the current SMPTE 2022 Video Over IP standard. Access to SMPTE 2022-6 is provided to SDK developers through a lightweight, but powerful interface using similar architecture to the Bluefish444 SDK for Windows, Linux and Mac OS.

Bluefish444 have worked hard to develop a seamless interface for our customers to access Video Over IP standards, without dramatic changes to their core applications, said Tom Lithgow, Bluefish444 Product Manager. We are very happy to announce IPConnect, and to invite new and existing customers to explore how this interface will simplify their transition to IP standards of video and audio transport.

IPConnect allows Bluefish444 customers to capture from existing SMPTE 2022-6 video sources, across 10Gb Network infrastructure. This 10Gb network can be accessed via a standard, off-the-shelf Network Interface Card (NIC), allowing the use of existing equipment alongside Bluefish444 SDI video hardware. As Video Over IP standards mature, and new technology emerges, these future standards and protocols will be added to this interface.

Bluefish444 IPConnect supported features:

422 single link 1.5G SMPTE 2022-6 capture

422 single link 3G (Level A) SMPTE 2022-6 capture

16 Channel Audio Decoding

RP 188 Timecode

Additional Ancillary data

Bluefish444 will be giving a technical demonstration of IPConnect on stand SL9021 atNAB Show 2018. Using the new SDK interface, Bluefish444 have quickly and easily added support for SMPTE 2022-6 capture into its IngeSTore software, Adobe Premiere Pro CC and to the Bluefish444 Avid OpenIO plug-in.
