Rohde & Schwarz has expanded its R&S VENICE ingest and playout platform to include the R&S VENICE Control application. R&S VENICE Control is ingest software for controlling multicamera recordings. It's designed to record up to 16 independent channels.
Release 6.1 of the R&S CLIPSTER mastering station focuses on HDR, expanded color scales, HFR and localization workflows. For localization, R&S CLIPSTER provides IMF subtitling and basic compositing, including floating point processing and color depth.
R&S PRIOS IP is a new member of the Rohde & Schwarz family of video boards. Designed for OEM customers, the board provides 10G Ethernet support for video over IP in addition to conventional SDI interfaces.
The R&S AVHE100 headend is intended for UltraHD and HD HEVC encoding, and provides the transport stream with HDR ancillary data. The SPTS function is designed for a pure encoder exchange and is intended for the IPTV market.
The BMM-810 platform from Rohde & Schwarz subsidiary GMIT includes an A/V multiviewer and monitoring solution for broadcast and OTT streaming. Building on the product, the company will also present a technology study with extensions for IP-based, mezzanine media transmission formats for playout/contribution.
The company will be presenting T&M equipment for the latest satellite standards, especially for broadcast and professional services, including IP-based services. The test setups based on the R&S BTC broadcast test center and the R&S SMW high-end signal generator are used for performance testing of DVB-S2/S2X signals. The booth will also feature the R&S SLG satellite load generator for channel bonding and single-carrier or multicarrier signal generation. It is equipped with the most recent modifications and extensions of the ISDB-S2 intermediate frequency band up to 3,225 MHz.
