Latin America. Telestream released a new two-channel version of its Lightspeed Live Capture system. Competitively priced, Lightspeed Live Capture C2 offers a full-featured dual-channel ingest solution, ideal for enterprise-scale workflows such as news and professional sports, that rely on remote production and editing capabilities.
While the younger brother of the Lightspeed Live family, the Capture C2 reflects all the media processing power and sophisticated workflow automation with which the company has led in recent years. With this development, media ingestion and processing workflows used for large-scale events are now viable for smaller, less complex instances.
The new dual-channel ingestion solution captures two simultaneous HD inputs up to 1080p60 and at the same time generates a low-resolution proxy of the content. Compatible with all major HD codecs, the server provides powerful production tools, such as simultaneous edit-capture, simultaneous transcoding-capture, and simultaneous delivery-capture.
Telestream's Lightspeed Live Capture offers the only capture portfolio that supports all common formats, HDR, VTR scanning, remote production, IP input, and delivery to Avid systems, without hardware changes and without compromising capacity. Now, the company has integrated this new server system along with its Software-based Vantage Media Processing Platform with great impact. For the first time, the Vantage for Capture option adds world-class transcoding that runs directly on the Lightspeed Live Capture C2 server along with Live Capture, Live Stream, Avid integration, and more.
Lightspeed Live Capture C2 is the product of a major Telestream development initiative: it combines the best media ingestion and processing capabilities with unbeatable value for money. Today, Lightspeed Live Capture C2 represents one of the cheapest ways to buy Vantage and Live Capture together.
The Capture C2 package offers all the software features and functions of larger-scale systems in an economical 2-channel hardware configuration. These features include: Live Edit, for sub-clipping of live capture and growing files using an HLS proxy integrated into a web-based and easy-to-use user interface. Live Play, allows live security monitoring for quality control, and playback of custom playlists. And third, Live Schedule, it automatically schedules events for capture using an easy-to-use, web-based user interface.
