Avid has developed a new version of its Avid | Stream IO that natively supports uncompressed IP ingest and playout offered by SMPTE 2110, as well as compressed IP-based ingest and playout with support for SRT and RTMP protocols.
The software supports flexible deployment on common off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware, said the company, and is configurable for both SDI streams and IP-based formats. It also supports high precision imagery including 1080P, UHD and HDR.
Tim Claman, chief product officer at Avid, said, “The enhancements in this new release reflect Avid’s drive to increase efficiency and enable Avid customers to stay ahead of the increasing demand for high quality news, sports and live entertainment content.
“Broadcasters can now ingest and playout any feed for any production workflow, while taking advantage of a lower cost of entry, thanks to Avid | Stream IO’s software-based subscription licensing model.”
