The new platform also allows media companies to increase efficiency by combining different ingest sources in a single configuration. Ideal for live entertainment and multi-camera productions, Avid | Stream IO supports all common production formats including SDI, Compressed IP streams SRT / RTMP / NDI, with SMPTE 2110 due later this year . And as a next-generation product, Avid | Stream IO offers all the best capabilities of Avid's proven hardware-based server solutions-AirSpeed and FastServe -while expanding support for emerging IP standards and higher-precision formats, such as 4K and HDR.
