The SVG Europe and SVG Americas teams are onsite in Amsterdam for IBC 2023. As the production and broadcast industry gathers to launch new products and to network, 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 AI-Media, Arista Networks, Arkona, Arri, Clear-Com, Deltatre, Domo, Edgio, Fujifilm, Grabyo, Haivision, Harmonic, Hitomi Broadcast, Leader, Media Links, Newsbridge, Nextologies, Open Broadcast Systems, Planetcast, Rohde & Schwarz, RTS Intercom Systems, Signiant, Skyline Communications, Telestream, Telos Alliance, TSL, and XD Motion
AI-Media (Stand 5.C31) is emphasizing the capabilities of its AI-powered live-automatic-captioning solution: LEXI. With the help of artificial intelligence, the solution is making a noticeable impact in real-time captioning cost-effectively. Further updates include the LEXI Captioning Tool Kit to add such features as translation, archiving and search, and disaster recovery. Another technological tentpole is AI-Media's ALTA solution for IP-compatible closed captioning and subtitling encoding. ALTA supports global broadcast standards like SMPTE ST 2110 and MPEG-TS inputs and can output ST 2110-40, DVB subtitles, DVB TTML, DVB Teletext, and SMPTE ST 2038. Along with effortlessly handling six languages per instance, ALTA also supports insertion of advertising cues using SCTE-35.
Arista Networks (Stand 11.C14) is featuring the further expansion of its suite of media-oriented tools that work to simplify network operations in live-production workflows. The tools comprise EOS, a single high-quality performant operating system that can run on any switch, lowering operational costs and complexities; CloudVision, a single management platform providing advanced configuration, change management, and real-time visibility; Media Control Service, a fast live-production SDN orchestration layer; and an extensive partner ecosystem, using powerful APIs to enable the most efficient broadcast workflows. The Arista Media offering is world-class, said Arista systems engineer Gerard Phillips, and our focus on simplicity, reliability, and visibility enables our customers to focus on their media workflows, knowing that their network will deliver what they need when they need it most.
Having been announced at NAB 2023, Manifold live-production software is being demonstrated on the Arkona stand (9.C01). Arkona head of sales and business development Erling Hedkvist said, The thing that impresses people the most is the performance and capacity of Manifold. In one server, we process 1.6TB of media. We're working on COTS FPGA so the performance is significantly higher than when using CPU. This means the amount of processing you can do takes up very little space and very little power.
Arri's Thomas Stoschek
Arri (Stand 12.F21) has responded to the growing trend in live sports production for cinematic images with the Trinity Live, a wireless variation of the firm's internally recording camera-stabiliser system. In sports, productions like to have more-emotional images of the players and fans, noted Arri camera systems sales manager Thomas Stoschek. That's why we are increasingly seeing at soccer games, for example, one or two cameras capturing shots with a shallow depth of field. That's something which our cameras are made for. In addition to the cameras, we are now offering additional equipment like the Trinity Live stabilizer, which helps operators get closer to the players. The body-mounted stabilisation system includes an arm like a small crane to enable both low and high shots, plus a transmitter mounted at the bottom of the arm to act as a counterbalance. It will be available from November.
Clear-Com (Stand 10.D29) is bringing a new level of configuration flexibility to the Eclipse HX. According to Clear Com, VP, product management, Simon Browne, the new Role login feature allows a user to sit at any intercom panel and, via a menu in the panel, select their team (video, maintenance, etc.) and their name to automatically activate their intercom keys. It dynamically can know which performance space or control room or what position I am in, he explains, and I can also use Role login to log into a beltpack. The keys follow me as I walk around. You don't need to continually reprogram people's keys, and you can even have your keys on a USB drive, plug it in, and have the panel come up with your configuration. Clear-Com is also introducing Bluetooth connectivity for its wireless beltpack, allowing talent or someone else to share beltpack communications while someone else uses the wired headset.
Deltatre (Stand 5.H20) has announced the launch of D3 VOLT, an integrated streaming platform for both established streaming operators and new entrants to the market. It offers fully native reference apps across web, mobile, tablet, TV, set-top-box, and game-console applications, as well as new levels of functionality spanning acquisition, packaging, encoding, security, distribution, content management, and playback. D3 VOLT comprises several Deltatre products: AXIS, the UX product to configure streaming services; DIVA, the video player for rich user interactivity; and the FORGE content-management system. The company said, It is the first platform to be so flexible it can launch new streaming services and grow with them while scaling up the user base and adding substantial new functionality without major revamps.
Domo (Stand 11.C12) is talking about its Quartz Mesh family of products. The system enables users to enjoy bidi
