NewTek (Booth SL5817) has announced NewTek Connect Pro, a multipurpose software tool designed to seamlessly connect IP video formats, enabling new and existing video-production hardware and software to work together. NewTek Connect Pro provides a simple, affordable bridge for producers and facilities transitioning to IP-based video production workflows that both minimizes expenses, and maximizes opportunities.
Bringing together IP video standards, including NDI, and support for streaming IP formats found in cameras from JVC, Panasonic, PTZ Optics, Sony, and Vaddio, NewTek Connect Pro enables users to take advantage of a true end-to-end IP live-production workflow. Further, combining these IP video sources with SDI capture cards, customers can expand production capabilities as needs develop and grow. Support of ASPEN and SMPTE 2022 protocols allows users to confidently build production workflows regardless of format.
The software tool transforms a host computer into a multichannel video converter for stored-media playback, local webcams, or video signals from compatible sources. NewTek Connect Pro also features NDI Connect Webserver, an additional application that distributes video sources to the browser of any suitable device on the network. Remote viewers can each select up to 16 video sources, displaying them in a web browser in a variety of convenient layouts.
IP-based workflows promise to connect all devices together on a single IP fabric to allow the best technologies to be used together. Competing standards, different devices, and different formats potentially make fulfilling the promise of IP interoperability very difficult, says Dr. Andrew Cross, president/CTO, NewTek. NewTek Connect Pro solves the problem of IP interoperability by being the glue that ties devices together and allows people to work with the best tools for a particular situation. It also provides a bridge from tools that they have today to the IP technologies of tomorrow.
Once installed, NewTek Connect Pro provides any production workflow up to four video sources as inputs or outputs. Users can access the I/O of any camera, deck, or device connected via compatible capture cards, serve up stored media files for live playback, or increase camera count with local webcams. Tally and AutoPlay functions are supported via NDI.
Highlights of NewTek Connect Pro include the following:
Up to four input or output channels, independently configurable with built-in standards conversion
Support for a range of capture devices from such vendors as AJA, Blackmagic Design, Bluefish444, DELTACAST, Magewell, Matrox, Teradek; DirectShow devices, webcams, desktop computer capture, and more
Support for Key + Fill pairing on input and output
Support for common IP cameras, including models from Panasonic, JVC, Vaddio, PTZ Optics, and Sony
