FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
AVerMedia 4K Capture Card Evolves with NewTek NDI™, A Live Production IP Workflow Technology
AVerMedia becomes a member of the NewTek Developer Network
Taipei, Taiwan, January 17, 2017 – AVerMedia
today announced support for NewTek's NDI™, a software-driven live
production IP workflow over Ethernet. Joining the industry's largest IP
ecosystem with hundreds of NDI-ready commercial products and the
rapidly expanding number of companies enabling IP-based customer
workflows, AVerMedia's NDI-ready products allow them to be recognized
and communicate with other NDI-readied applications and devices
connected to the Ethernet network.
NewTek's royalty free NDI technology allows video and audio sources to
be shared bi-directionally across a network, eliminating the need for
costly direct connections, expensive cable runs, and infrastructure
upgrades while utilizing every IP video source on the network instantly.
Gone are the days of bandwidth and hardware restrictions for 4K video
streaming. Coupling NDI with AVerMedia's 4K PCIe capture card, live 4K
video can be accessed flawlessly over the network while the IP-based
workflow simplifies the creation and distribution of high quality media
production. The advantages of AVerMedia SDK incorporating NDI means
network users accessing the 4K stream also gain AVerMedia 4K capture
card's video processing functionalities such as resolution scaling,
de-interlacing and color-space conversion.
NDI can help build an efficient live video production IP workflow
infrastructure over an Ethernet network. With AVerMedia NDI-ready
products, users can produce, integrate and manage multiple 4K streams
on-the-fly. Without negating current SDI solutions, producers may
utilize their GbE Ethernet network and transform their facility into an
IP video production studio.
“Software-driven IP workflows are quickly becoming ubiquitous in video production,” said Michael Kornet, executive vice president of Business Development for NewTek. “NDI-enabled
devices like the CE511-HN 4K Capture card exponentially increase the
video sources available for live production creating efficiencies and
opportunities for customers that did not previously exist. NDI is the
most widely adopted IP technology on the market, epitomized by the
millions of customers with access to it today.”
AVerMedia is also supporting NDI version 2.0, the recently updated
software development kit (SDK) from NewTek. The NDI SDK is royalty free
for any company looking to establish IP workflows within their
organization, or in commercial products and applications they deliver.
Building on the widely adopted and ground-breaking NDI announced at IBC
2015, NewTek's NDI version 2 adds higher performance, resolution
independence, 16-bit per channel support for the highest precision
color of any IP standard, 16 channels of floating point audio, improved
cross subnet support, integrated fail-safe support, network-based
re-routing support, and more.
As a leader in imaging and video-capture solutions, AVerMedia is
dedicated to work closely with NewTek to offer solutions that best suit
customer needs.
