Solid State Logic is the latest technology vendor to add support for the Media eXchange Layer (MXL) to its products.
At IBC Show, the company will demonstrate how its System T ecosystem is delivering scale with a range of physical and virtualised user interfaces as part of its software-defined Virtual Tempest Engine (VTE) for deployment across both on-prem and cloud workflows.
“SSL is previewing enhancements to VTE’s software-based processing engine as part of our commitment to align with the EBU’s Dynamic Media Facility (DMF) project,” said SSL broadcast product manager Berny Carpenter.
“The DMF project and the associated MXL development aims to solve many of the real-time challenges of moving to software-defined workflows. It vastly reduces compute by enabling containerised software functions from multiple vendors to utilise shared memory to transfer video, audio, and metadata on the same server,” he added.
“It gives broadcasters the ability to take advantage of best-of-breed technology in the same flexible software stack while retaining the tried and trusted feature set that broadcasters have come to expect from SSL. And all without committing to a one-off investment in processing hardware up front.”
