The SVG Europe and SVG Americas teams are onsite in Amsterdam for the triumphant return of the IBC Show. As the production and broadcast industry gathers 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. You'll find all the key announcements and news here with daily updates through Monday.
Today's issue features Advanced HDR by Technicolor, ATOMOS, Calrec Audio, Cobalt Digital, DataCore Software, Flowics, Grabyo, Gravity Media, Imagine Communications, Leader, LiveU, LucidLink, M2A Media, Matrox, Phenix Real-Time Solutions, Quantum, Qvest, Riedel, Ross Video, SES, Sony, Synamedia, Tellyo, Veritone, and Waves Audio.
Advanced HDR by Technicolor is at the Cobalt Digital stand demonstrating production features integrated with Cobalt Digital processing.
Advanced HDR by Technicolor is displaying the latest advances in SDR-to-HDR conversion at multiple stands at the RAI. Infusing automation into the process, the company also enables backward compatibility while maintaining the creator's original intent. Partnering with Cobalt Digital (Stand 10.B44), Advanced HDR by Technicolor is demonstrating production features seen within Cobalt Digital's 9904-UDX-4K processing card. In addition, the team at BBRight (Stand 2.B39) is highlighting features integrated in its playout solutions.
ATOMOS (Stand 11.D25) is targeting attendees seeking new ways to get live content into the cloud for editing and other production needs. The company is showcasing latest developments in ATOMOS CONNECT devices, Cloud Studio services, and Capture to Cloud. The CONNECT system uploads a proxy, which makes editing instantly available, and a master file (up to 8K), which can have content swapped in for the final output. ZATO CONNECT connects to playout sources via HDMI and USB UVC, enabling live streaming to Facebook Live, Twitch, YouTube, or even custom RTMP destinations. It also provides transparent overlays, with .png files able to be uploaded and then, via presets, placed into the video frame where desired. Its picture-in-picture feature is on display at IBC for the first time.
Calrec Audio (Stand 8.B57) is unveiling a brand-new audio-mixing system designed to keep pace with the changes broadcasters are experiencing in production workflows. Designed to adapt to changing production needs, Calrec Argo is a new approach to audio mixing, with a flexible control philosophy that breaks the traditional geographic tie lines between processing and control, according to the company. Calrec VP, sales, Dave Letson said, As broadcast infrastructures migrate to new environments, broadcast consoles need to work in different ways to ensure that they remain a safe investment. On Argo, Calrec's Assist GUI is central to the operation of the console and is directly transferable onto a browser to provide portability, backup, and on-the-fly configuration in remote locations.
Cobalt Digital (Stand 10.B44) is celebrating its 25th anniversary here at IBC. Said Suzana Brady, SVP, worldwide sales and marketing, Cobalt Digital: We started out with a small SDI-to-analogue converter box from NEP, and, 25 years later, we have hundreds of products. We founded openGear with Ross Video in 2006 and today have over 40,000 frames deployed and many thousands of Cobalt processing cards. And it's great to be back here at IBC with our friends and partners to celebrate.

The fruits of DataCore Software's (Stand 7.D17) recent acquisitions of Caringo and MayaData are being showcased at IBC as part of its new DataCore NEXT vision. First, DataCore has joined forces with Symply to release an appliance-based product that streamlines media archiving. SymplyPerifery is powered by DataCore's object-storage platform, Perifery, designed for appliances and edge devices. Using the appliance, media companies can offload content from their primary online storage system (SAN or NAS) to a local archive for short- and long-term reuse and re-monetization. Second, DataCore has unveiled the latest version of its Swarm object-storage solution (part of the Caringo acquisition). Swarm offers significant enhancements for onsite and public-cloud environments, including hybrid-cloud enablement, improved performance for video streaming, and lightning-fast metadata search capabilities.
Fresh from being acquired by Vizrt, Flowics (Stand 5.C39) is keen to celebrate and discuss the deal's benefits for customers, but that is not the only IBC focus for the live-graphics company. Integration with stats providers, allowing provision of live data-based graphics and the ability to bridge the gap between various graphics platform providers, is also on the agenda. With Vizrt, the company is keen to incorporate its cloud-based live graphics and interactive content platform with the Tricaster production system, a combo that Flowics considers a great fit for sports broadcasters.
Grabyo (Stand 5.F45) is showcasing a handful of new enhancements to its existing workflows. Instant Replay, the new cloud-based solution, is accessible via any web browser. To develop more services for live productions, Grabyo is pairing Instant Replay with other techniques, including slow-motion controls and a new media-playout system. In addition, Grabyo is bolstering its Grabyo Producer platform with new features. At the top of the list are Key and Fill graphics to diversify the layout of any live stream, Custom Graphics Transitions to differentiate the live video feed and the inserted replay, and Asset Snapping that automatically aligns content to the desired location.
