StreamMaster

The StreamMaster system provides all the requirements of a channel playout device in a software package that runs on standard IT hardware, including multi-level 3D graphics, squeezebacks and hot starts, and secondary events. The software can run in a virtualized environment in a data center or can be hosted on a dedicated hardware with video I/O cards to fit into an SDI environment.

Pixel Power will also show its graphics and branding products at SMPTE 2015 at booth 316.

IBC2019, 13-17 September, Stand 7.A05: Pixel Power has today announced it will be adding uncompressed IP playout capability, based on the SMPTE ST 2110 family of standards, to its already well established StreamMaster playout technology. The development comes as a natural progression of incorporating new standards within its software defined technology platforms: StreamMaster Media Processing and Gallium Workflow Orchestration. Like all StreamMaster and Gallium functionality, SMTPE ST 2110 will be supported as software solutions whether on-premise or virtualized in a data centre.
