Matrox Video At Streaming Media East 2014

At this year's Streaming Media East, New York City, May 13-14, Matrox Video will showcase its Monarch HD video streaming and recording appliances and VS4-based live production streaming systems, along with the MicroQuad multiviewers.

Matrox Monarch HD is an H.264 encoder designed to simultaneously stream a live event and record a mastering-quality version for post-event editing. 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, the Monarch simultaneously records a high-quality MP4 or MOV file to an SD card, a USB drive, or a network-mapped drive. It is remotely controlled using any computer or mobile device with a web browser.
The new Monarch SDK, an HTTP-based API, includes documentation and sample code that let AV and broadcast equipment developers write applications to configure and control Monarch HD streaming capabilities.

Matrox VS4 is a quad HD capture card for use with Telestream Wirecast for Windows or StudioCoast vMix live production streaming software. VS4 provides up to four independent HD inputs with up to eight embedded audio channels per source. It sends video feeds for streaming and facilitates ISO recording to disk of all original video and audio feeds for post event editing.

VS4Recorder is a standalone multi-camera recording app bundled with Matrox VS4 quad HD capture cards. VS4Recorder gives live event producers control over capture of the four inputs connected to the VS4, to create files for use with popular editing apps from Adobe, Apple and Avid and for archiving.
AVI files can be created using Matrox's MPEG 2 I-Frame codec. MOV QuickTime files can be created using DV, DVCPRO, DVCPRO50 and DVCPRO HD. New features include gang recording of an unlimited number of video sources, an H.264 codec with MOV or MP4 file wrapping so that files can be immediately available for upload to the internet; DirectShow filters for developers to incorporate VS4 functionality in their own applications; event markers for Adobe Premiere CC so that users can highlight moments of interest for quicker post-event editing; and settings for capture duration and file switching without frame loss.

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. 10-bit scaling engine and advanced filtering algorithms ensure an artifact-free monitoring experience. MicroQuad can be controlled using buttons on the unit itself or from a distance using a Windows-based app.

Matrox will be exhibiting at this year's show on Booth 317
