Breakthrough launch of full software based workflow for TV production at NAB
VidiGo introduces VidiGo Live 4.2., the fourth generation of its live multi-camera production suite at the NAB in Las Vegas this April. Next to numerous new features, two breakthrough applications are launched. Live Assist' an ultimate remote control for rundowns and Multi Viewer' a fully customizable multi viewer that can be controlled and adapted real-time during the show.
Again VidiGo takes a huge step in full software based workflows for TV production. All global trend reports anticipate on a software takeover in the industry. The AV-workflow of the future is software based, enabling live television with less resources, more flexibility and at a fraction of the traditional broadcasting budget. VidiGo is the only supplier offering a completely software based product line for live production.
Live Assist -VidiGo Live Assist is a full featured rundown control application. Building rundowns becomes fast and easy with a perfect visual representation. Live Assist makes is possible to create full shows with transitions, multi camera set-ups, data feeds, graphics, DVE effects, keying and audio control, with no limits to the amount of layers or DVE's. Live Assist can control macro settings, scripting and can be dynamically updated. Also it is easy to integrate with existing newsroom systems. This new application delivers more flexibility and is the next step to automated productions.
Multi Viewer -VidiGo will launch two fully customizable multi viewers for VidiGo Live that can be controlled and adapted real-time during the show. The use of Multi Viewer does not require any additional hardware.
VidiGo Live 4.2. - VidiGo Live 4.2. is an integrated live multi-camera production workflow with endless automation possibilities. VidiGo Live 4.2. comes with 12 HD inputs, 4 HD video players, 2 VidiGo HD Graphics Players, audio control, unlimited keyers, limitless DVE's and 2 HD multi viewers. This makes VidiGo suitable for all production environments.
Furthermore VidiGo Live offers all necessary features for a professional broadcaster like transition effects, video & still players, live feeds, scaling and bordering.
VidiGo Live 4.2. can be controlled by mouse, touchscreens, a traditional hardware panel, remote devices like iPads, mobile phones or be fully controlled by its automation applications like Live Assist' or Audio Director'. VidiGo Live has open API, GPI and XML communication layers. Besides that VidiGo Live has two integrated VidiGo Graphics players for rendering native web content including Adobe Flash & Adobe AIR.
DAVE The core of VidiGo -VidiGo, known for its visionary solutions, has set a new standard next to the traditional hardware switchers. Core technology of VidiGo is its in-house developed live Digital Audio Video Engine, called DAVE 4.0. DAVE is a software only solution that runs on the latest industry standard IT hardware. It is the core engine of VidiGo, used to develop innovative and reliable products to meet current and future audiovisual demands. DAVE's open architecture enables interaction with third party systems and seamless integration into existing workflows.
Vision of the CEO - It's our strategy to deliver visionary and 100% software based workflows that make broadcasting easier. Comparing VidiGo with more traditional solutions like NewTek, Grass Valley or BroadcastPix is impossible. They bring quality and powerful stand-alone products. VidiGo has a completely different strategy. We believe hardware based setups are coming to an end, as they are replaced by innovative and reliable software based workflows like VidiGo Live 4.2. VidiGo Live together with the Live Assist application is by far the most advanced automated workflow in the market, according to Hans Krouwels, CEO of VidiGo.
VidiGo Live 4.2. starts just under 22k for a fully featured system.
VidiGo Live 4.2. including Live Assist, Audio Director, and the new featured Multi Viewer are launched at NAB 2013. Demos are available at booth # SL 8024
