The SVG Europe and SVG Americas teams are onsite in Amsterdam for the triumphant return of the IBC Show. With the production and broadcast industry gathered at IBC 2022 to launch new products and reconnect, the SVG team is out in force in the exhibition halls of the RAI to gather and share the latest news with the SVG community.
Today's issue features Adder Technology, AJA Video Systems, Amagi, Appear, Arkona Technologies, Ateme, Blackmagic Design, Brightcove, Broadpeak, Disguise, Edgio, Evertz, Hitomi, IP Showcase, Lumen, Microsoft, Newsbridge, Pixotope, Pliant Technologies, Q5X, Red Bee Media, Riedel, RTS Intercom Systems, RT Software, Sennheiser, Signiant, Sony, Telstra Broadcast Services, and TeraVolt.
Adder Technology is emphasising remote production and cloud-based workflows.
Adder Technology (Stand 7.B18) is boosting the KVM game with its presence at IBC 2022. To serve current trends in the industry, the company always adapts products to match the requirements of the client base. This week, Adder Technology is showcasing solutions that cater to the growing need for remote production and utilization of cloud-based workflows. Whether it's a production hub in a traditional broadcast facility or a newly minted control room inside a professional sports venue, users are able to tap into the physical workspace from the comfort of their own home. In-venue shows and live broadcasts alike are being prepared properly from anywhere in the world.
The move to HDR production is one of the newest challenges in the industry and AJA Video Systems (Stand 7.C19) aims to make the process easier than ever with ColorBox, priced at U.S.$1,995 and shipping now. The box, four of which can fit side by side in one traditional rack unit, is a converter for color-managed workflows for broadcast, live, or on-set needs. A 33-point 3D LUT processor with tetrahedral interpolation can make use of internal LUTs from Colorfront, NBCU, and AJA Color Pipeline as well as licensed versions of BBC HLG and new ORION-CONVERT. Latency is less than one line; a set of web-based controls (which can also be controlled by controllers from CyanView and Skaarhoj) offer increased flexibility; and built-in presets make things even easier. Said AJA senior product manager Tim Walker, The presets allow you to create a look and then, with the push of a button, create the exact mathematical inverse so that you have two matched presets for going from SDR to HLG or HLG to SDR or whatever conversion you need.
Amagi's Dan Marshall
Amagi (Stand 5.C76) has rolled the latest versions of its Amagi LIVE low-latency live-orchestration solution and Amagi CLOUDPORT channel-playout platform. Amagi LIVE, which was used by NBC Sports Group for the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, dynamically manages a variety of live productions for linear and VOD channels. A new enhanced user interface combines such functions as playlist view/edit and management of file-based and live content. Meanwhile, the latest version of Amagi CLOUDPORT features an enhanced user interface for more-efficient operation by a single user, and playlist additions - editing layout, viewing of past/current/future items, search/replace of assets, search filters, playlist versioning, show and break management, and missing-asset identification - make programming simpler and faster.
Oslo-based media-processing and -delivery-technology firm Appear (Stand 1.C61) has its sights set on the U.S. Chief executive Thomas Bostr m J rgensen is keen for it to take a significant position in the country: For the first time, we are marketing the Appear brand in the U.S. The speed of maturity and adoption of networking technologies are different to the U.S. than in Europe, and that is a big thing for us. Appear products related to mezzanine compression and the adoption of ST-2110, he added, are ripe for the U.S. market. Former Nevion senior architect Geoff Bowen, who joined Appear this year, is the company's technology lead and solutions architect in the U.S. Also at IBC, Appear is sharing details of its three-year project with Deutsche Telekom to reduce latency on the telco's OTT platform to where it is on a par with the latency of satellite and cable delivery.
Arkona Technologies (Stand 10.B10) is exhibiting the AT300 dual 100GE edge compute processor. Said Former Lawo SVP Erling Hedkvist, who joined Arkona shortly after NAB 2022 to lead sales and marketing efforts, With up to 96 UHD instances per rack unit, the AT300 is the highest-density 4K HDR solution on the market while being more energy-efficient than the previous generation.
Ateme (Stand 1.D71) and Viaccess-Orca have partnered to offer a new service for creation of VOD-to-live and personalised live channels with targeted ads. Ateme is providing its NEA offering for streaming, integrating server-side ad-insertion technology with VO's AI-based content-discovery and targeted-ad product, which is driven by usage data, viewing preferences, and subscriber consumption patterns.
Blackmagic Design (Stand 7.C49) is showing four new models of the Ultimatte 12 real-time compositing processor, with different versions at different price points and qualities available depending on the scope and level of the sports-broadcast graphics or virtual sets required or the television standard used. The SDI input Ultimatte 12 HD, Ultimatte 12 4K, and Ultimatte 12 8K models are accompanied by an HDMI input Ultimatte 12 HD Mini model. Designed specifically for live production, Ultimatte 12 features one-touch keying that analyses a scene and automatically sets more than 100 parameters so that customers get useful keys without having to do a lot of extra work. Also announced at IBC is a new Ultimatte Software Control app
