Broadcasters Show Daily 2 1 Tuesday, April 21, 2020 with full audio processing capability. The integrated scaler allows for spatial con- versions of the video signal. 4K Up/Down/Cross Conversion Designed for applications that require up/down/cross conversion and frame synchronization with full audio process- ing capability, supporting formats up to 4K UHD (3840x2169). It includes built- in motion adaptive filtering, as well as extensive audio processing such as decoding, MADI support, individually configured audio inputs/outputs. greenMachine offers many more functions, including: bi-directional trans- port of video, test signal generation, 3G up/down/cross conversion and static HDR processing. greenMachine is unique in that it takes a three-pronged approach to pro- cessing definition and function. Rather than simply being a fixed piece of hard- ware with a single function, greenMachine offers user-selectable con- figurations (referred to as constellations) as well as configuration and control soft- ware (greenGUI) with full SNMP v2 sup- port. Users have the option to reprogram greenMachine (Cont'd. from p. 1) greenMachine by picking their set of configurations depending on the applica- tion and how they need to use their pro- cessing platform. The configurations are pre-installed and un-licensed, which can be deployed for testing and proof of sys- tem concept but will show watermarks at the outputs. This provides users with a real "try before you buy" opportunity and is the true flexibility of greenMachine. The greenMachine titan platform provides simultaneous processing of up to four individual 3G/HD/SD-SDI sig- nals or a single 4K/UHD SDI (3840 x 2160 @60 Hz) signal. Inputs for 4K/UHD can be either 4x 3G SDI (2SI Quad Link) or 12G SDI (Single Link). Conversion between Single Link 12G SDI and 2SI Quad Link signals (and vice versa) is included in the 4K/UHD con- stellations. Fibre SFP options are avail- able for one 3G/HD/SD-SDI and one 12G 4K/UHD input and output. A rackmount kit can accommodate one or two greenMachines plus power supplies in 1RU of rack space.

No other solution on the market can match this flexibility. Schools need portability. There are going to be away games that audiences will want to see. That means a system that is reliable, has a small footprint and is easy to set up. ViBox is designed to be set up in just minutes, takes up minimal space and is built for the rigors of the SimplyLive (Cont'd. from p. 4) road. Schools need systems that are future built. Buying a sports production system that is built for the IP future will pay off for years to come. The ViBox is IP ready. It is designed for remote pro- duction, meaning the ViBox hardware can be in one location (say, in venue), with the operators at a different location – perhaps at a production center across campus. With our technology, production can work over a standard, affordable internet connection. SimplyLive Varsity Sports Bundles are designed specifically for schools that want to easily produce high-quality live sports. It's a new generation of advanced video technology that features a suite of flexible and intuitive applica- tions for live multi-camera/multi-source productions.
