LAS VEGAS— Who says professional broadcasting has to be expensive? With Cinegy Air Express being launched at the NAB Show 2010 starting in Las Vegas on 12th April 2010, world leading software company Cinegy is changing the broadcast automation and playout space by slashing a digit or two of what would be the normal going rate for a comparable solution.
The new product offering is based on the existing, proven Cinegy Air product range that is already powering hundreds of TV channels around the globe. Cinegy Air Express aims at smaller TV stations and also studio production environments, but also at new markets such as IPTV, info channels, hotel TV, education and digital signage solutions.
Cinegy Air Express, with a starting price of US $999, includes a fully featured broadcast automation software suite with broadcast playout server software, for the first time making a Channel in A Box (CIAB) truly affordable for everyone. There is no other solution more capable, or comparable in terms of the number of features available for this price. The features offered at this price make many solutions, costing multiple times more, look underpowered and antiquated.
Cinegy Air Express comes with features such as logo insertion, remote operation capability, studio playback mode, Internet streaming, and RTP/UDP streaming. Different format codecs and aspect ratios can be mixed in a playlist back to back.
The studio playback mode enables the use of slow motion, multi-speed forward and reverse playback, bounce and loop playback. In studio mode the playback can be controlled by keyboard, mouse, and jog & shuttle devices from vendors such as JL Cooper, DNF and others.
For US $1999 Cinegy Air Express HD provides a fully equipped HD solution including features such as SD / HD simulcast, support for formats such as MPEG2, H.264, XDCAM HD, AVC-Intra, AVID DNxHD, MXF-AS03, and many more. The first 100 orders placed at the NAB Show 2010 will receive Cinegy Air Express HD for US $999.
Cinegy Air Express is a software solution that turns any Intel or AMD based Windows PC or server into a broadcast playout server. The Cinegy Air control component, for managing playout and automation, can be run on the same machine running the Cinegy Air playout server component. Alternatively, it can reside on any other machine connected to the playout server via an IP connection (Ethernet, WLAN, WAN). This facilitates remote operation of the playout server. For SDI playout, various popular cards from multiple vendors such as AJA, BlackMagic, DVS and others are supported. For those who want to broadcast via the Internet or create MPEG transport streams to directly feed into ATSC or DVB workflows, this is also possible without requiring additional software or hardware.
Try before you buy.
No more excuses. Now or never.
