Latin America. Avid updated its Stream IO subscription software solution for streaming production ingest and playback that enable an IP-based workflow, natively making the uncompressed IP ingest and playback offered by SMPTE 2110, as well as compressed IP-based ingest and playback with support for SRT and RTMP protocols.
Avid | Stream IO is the next-generation ingest and playback solution that enables fast workflows for news and sports. With a flexible software architecture that supports flexible deployment on standard hardware. It can be configured for both SDI streams and IP-based formats, allowing production teams to migrate from legacy workflows to IP workflows at their own pace. It also supports high-precision images, such as 1080P, UHD, and HDR, at a lower cost per channel than traditional hardware-based systems.
This upcoming software release builds on other recent performance improvements from Avid | Stream IO, including a doubled channel count to support two, four, and now up to eight channels in a single system, the ability to create ready-to-play media playlists during production directly from the web remote console, closed captioning on playback, and increased codec support.
Avid | Stream IO runs on COTS hardware and is available on a subscription basis. It will be available at the end of 2024.
