New Vector MultiPlay multichannel playout solution proves its commitment to the future of 3-D broadcast with support for existing channel operators today
Barcelona, Spain – June 30, 2010 -- Vector 3™, a pioneer in graphics and playout solutions, has qualified the Vector MultiPlay product line, which includes the all-in-one VectorBox, for 3-D broadcast workflows. In lab tests with Assimilate’s DI application, vizRT CG and the highly popular Final Cut Pro editor, Vector MultiPlay provided exceptional ingest and 3-D playout performance with full capabilities for automating playout. “With stereoscopic 3-D workflows taking center stage, we must proactively confirm our commitment to support 3-D playout for both existing and new customers,” comments Pau Ceano, research and development manager, Vector 3. “Our core conversion engine supports the full-range of formats and codecs. Combined with the industry’s best hardware, we were able to easily qualify 3D playout and are happy to move forward with this important announcement.” The Vector MultiPlay 3D playout workflow incorporates Axon to convert Assimilate files to SDI and 3PlayPro for conversion to Anaglyph over an HDMI.
Vector manages the playout automation by migrating the converted files through vizRT, enabling existing Vector MultiPlay users to easily adapt to stereoscopic 3-D playout workflows.
