TSL is launching Hummingbird, a unified, interoperable ecosystem of control and monitoring applications and interfaces, designed to drive efficiency and reduce complexity across advanced broadcast and AV environments.
Bringing together the combined strengths of TallyMan and DNF Controls' trusted solutions, TSL Hummingbird launches with 15 modular applications that can be deployed independently, as enhancements to existing infrastructure, bought as pre-built toolkits, or combined to build complete control and orchestration workflows. The ecosystem will develop progressively, with continual additions of new protocols, applications and integrations, as well as soft and hard panel interface options, ensuring it remains open, futureproof, and responsive to emerging standards and evolving customer needs.
At its core, TSL Hummingbird prioritises interoperability, delivering intuitive control, monitoring, and IP routing orchestration across multi-vendor environments. It supports bridging of SDI, ST 2110 or NDI workflows, giving facilities the freedom to integrate diverse technologies without being tied to a single vendor. This ensures operators can work efficiently across increasingly converged AV and broadcast environments.
Hummingbird debuts three new capabilities for TSL: NDI Source Tally, Orchestration, and extensions to the protocols supported including more Grass Valley protocol licences. NDI Source Tally carries tally across SDI and NDI for hybrid estates. Orchestration is a vendor-neutral, NMOS-native IP routing control layer that presents SDI-style workflows to operators, while giving real-time control of 2110 media flows. The new protocol licences extend native Grass Valley integration for mixed-vendor routing. Together, these additions accelerate predictable, low-risk migration to IP by reducing retraining, preserving existing route controls and operator panels, and ensuring mixed vendor routing and failover. As well as TSL's own stand at 7.B12, TSL Hummingbird is available to view at IBC2025 on the NDI product wall (11.C39), Grass Valley stand (9.A01), and Telestream stand (7.B21).
TSL Hummingbird's applications are designed for maximum deployment flexibility, whether on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) servers, in cloud environments, or via TSL's proprietary hardware. The ecosystem supports a broad range of vendor-agnostic soft and hard panels, including TSL Hummingbird's own extensive range of HMI interfaces, making it easy to adapt to existing infrastructures.
This flexible architecture enables customers to build fully tailored workflows with their preferred vendor tools. The result is improved system efficiency, enhanced operational reliability, and optimized team performance, all contributing to a stronger return on investment.
TSL Hummingbird takes flight at IBC2025 (7.B12), alongside several launches across TSL's broader portfolio in control, power, and audio monitoring solutions, including the ST 2022-7 capable PAM-NET Audio Monitoring Unit and the latest intelligent, managed Power Distribution Units.
TallyMan and DNF Controls have long been leading names in control and orchestration and are trusted by users around the world. Combining them to create TSL Hummingbird marks an important evolution in shaping the future of control within broadcast, AV, and connected media environments, commented Matthew Quade, CEO, TSL. Establishing a world-leading ecosystem for control and monitoring is the culmination of a vision that began with TSL's acquisition of DNF Controls. TSL Hummingbird is about giving our customers the freedom to design the workflows they want, with the tools and technologies they choose, with the ability to adapt and scale operations without complexity. We are proud to unveil it to our customers and prospects at IBC2025.
