Matrox Announces BroadcastAsia Lineup

Canadian supplier of HD and SD digital video hardware and software Matrox Video has announced its lineup for this year's BroadcastAsia show.
The company will be showcasing, in conjunction with distributor UBC, video streaming and recording appliances, live production streaming systems, scan converters, multiviewers, I/O devices, 4K video monitoring cards and developer products.
Matrox Monarch™ HD is a streaming and recording appliance that received four industry awards at the recent 2013 NAB Show.
It is designed for professional video producers who need to simultaneously stream a live event and record a master version for post-event editing.
It provides two independent delivery channels in an integrated unit.
From any HDMI input source such as a camera or switcher, Matrox Monarch HD generates an H.264-encoded stream compliant with RTSP or RTMP protocol.
While encoding the video at bitrates suitable for live streaming, Matrox Monarch HD simultaneously records an MP4 file to an SD card, a USB drive, or a network-mapped drive. Matrox Monarch HD is remotely controlled using any computer or mobile device with a web browser.

Matrox VS4™ is a quad HD capture and ISO recording card for Telestream Wirecast for Windows live production streaming software.
In a single PCIe slot, Matrox VS4 provides up to four independent HD inputs with up to 8 embedded audio channels per source. It not only sends video feeds to Wirecast for streaming, it simultaneously provides ISO recording of all the original video and audio feeds to disk – ready for post-event editing.

Matrox MicroQuad™ is a four-channel SDI-to-HDMI multiviewer for 3G/HD/SD.
It lets broadcasters and A/V professionals use an HDMI display to view up to four SDI video signals and show or hide labels and VU meters. MicroQuad can be controlled using buttons on the unit itself or from a distance using a Windows-based app.

Matrox Convert™ DVI Plus is an HD-SDI scan converter that lets broadcasters incorporate content from computers, iPads and iPhones into broadcast programs.
The region-of-interest feature lets the user define any region of any size from the computer display and output just that content at the required broadcast resolution. If the selected area doesn’t match the output resolution, Matrox Convert DVI Plus provides horizontal and vertical upscaling and downscaling.
The unit can be genlocked to an SD analog black burst (bi-level) or HD tri-level genlock source. Proc amp controls on the output let the user adjust the hue, chroma, saturation, and brightness levels. In addition, Matrox Convert DVI Plus can be used to drive projectors and large displays at live events.

Matrox MXO2 LE MAX™ provides input, output and monitoring for editing apps from Adobe, Apple and Avid. It turbocharges H.264 encoding for deliveries to the web, mobile devices and Blu-ray and is also a capture solution for streaming live events from wherever they are happening using Telestream Wirecast and other streaming applications.

Matrox Mojito 4K is a quad 3G-SDI, 4K video monitoring card for use with the upcoming release of Adobe Creative Cloud professional video editing tools on Windows platforms.
It enables realtime monitoring and output of video footage at resolutions up to 4096 x 2160 and at frame rates up to 60 fps (4Kp60) so post-production professionals see every pixel of every 4K frame in real time to craft breathtaking content.

Matrox DSX™ Developer Products combine a full range of multi-channel SD/HD/4K I/O hardware with the feature-rich SDK and engineering support that let OEMs create channel-in-a-box, video server, broadcast graphics and live streaming equipment.
The Matrox DSX platforms provide advanced ancillary data handling for VANC and HANC, a constantly expanding selection of codecs (DVCPRO HD, MPEG-2, XDCAM HD AVC-Intra, H.264, Apple ProRes, Avid DNxHD, PitchBlue, and more), extensive file format support (GXF, MXF, MOV, AVI, MPG, MP4, and more) and powerful tools for quick app development.
