Broadcast Pix Launches PixPlay

Broadcast Pix has unveiled PixPlay, a new software option that allows any Broadcast Pix integrated production switcher to provide slow motion control to a Blackmagic Design HyperDeck or AJA Video Systems Ki Pro disk recorder.

Regularly priced at $495, PixPlay will be offered free to customers purchasing a new Flint™, Granite™ or Mica™ integrated production switcher until September 30.
The system enables operators to replay footage manually using controls on the front panel of the HyperDeck Studio or Ki Pro. With PixPlay, VTR control is ported to the production switcher along with six preset replay speeds. Users can also 'scrub' or single step through a scene.
PixPlay includes an unlimited number of 'in' points as part of a playback EDL, which instantly cues the proper scenes. All scoring plays during a football game can be selected and cued for instant playback at a preset replay speed.
"Broadcast Pix systems already work well with AJA and Blackmagic file-based recorders via our PixPad interface, but our new PixPlay adds a new level of integration and functionality," said Steve Ellis, CEO of Broadcast Pix. "The workflow is remarkably easy and delivers great slo-mo imagery at a fantastic price."
