IBC Debut For Cinegy JET Pack

Cinegy is to launch the Cinegy JET Pack at IBC2015, Stand 7.A30. JET Pack is an all-in-one media management solution for playout; CG and branding; ingest and encoding; monitoring; live production and mixing; and transcoding.

It is available as an annual subscription for €1,995, including updates.

The Cinegy JET Pack includes Cinegy Air PRO, Cinegy Capture PRO, Cinegy Multiviewer, Cinegy Live mixing and cutting software; and Cinegy Convert transcoding and batch processing software plus many others. All are available on a single annual subscription basis, or for purchase.

JET Pack's annual subscription comes with an option to include all updates, meaning there is no need to reinvest each time there is an improvement. Hardware will become obsolete over time, but the JET Pack software solution will stay up-to-date as additional enhancements and new features become available.

Jan Weigner, Cinegy CEO, said: "JET Pack represents a major step-change in how to economically get a channel on air. Over the last 10 years our Cinegy product set has been technically proven to deliver business efficiencies during operations. With the introduction of JET Pack, the practice of spending hard-earned capital to buy multiple software products for installation on multiple big iron machines can join corded telephones in the museum.

"Now all you need is one Cinegy dongle and an annual subscription to provide a vast range of media management functions, all at a fraction of the cost to which most are accustomed. JET Pack can also be purchased for €4,995 including the first year of updates. That's more than €20,000-worth of software for under 5K. Why not fly First Class and pay for Economy?"

Weigner added: "Our software solutions are already the industry's most solid and reliable foundation for every stage of the digital production process. We've just made its implementation, and the ability to get multiple channels on air quickly and painlessly, infinitely easier and so cost-effective that we know it's going to take off in a big way. That's why we've called it JET Pack."

In addition to the above, Cinegy's Head of Product Management, Lewis Kirkaldie, will present 'Cloudy with a Chance of Media' in IBC's Content Everywhere Technology in Action Theatre, located in Hall 3, on Friday 11 September at 2pm.

Kirkaldie will discuss what has emerged from Cinegy's R&D labs and how those developments have manifested themselves in the launch of JET Pack.

The presentation will be introduced by BBC Northern Ireland and will highlight how IP and cloud-based facilities can be safe, effective, and beneficial in a traditionally conservative world of broadcast-engineering software.
