Cinegy To Make Broadcast Asia Debut

Cinegy has announced it will make its first appearance at Broadcast Asia later this month. At the show, Cinegy will demonstrate its new products, including Cinegy Air PRO 11 – its real-time playout server and multi-channel broadcast automation software.

In addition to support for high frame rate Ultra HD formats (50/60p), Cinegy Air PRO Version 11 has integrated HEVC stream encoding with specific NVidia graphics cards and, if required, also offload HEVC and H.264 stream encoding to the NVidia GPU.

Users can use commodity hardware to stream UHD; and because Version 11 includes a loudness limiter and Dolby E encoding and decoding, external devices or internal software used for compliance, decoding, or subtitling can be eliminated. The latest version 11 also supports Australia's OP42/47 subtitling requirements.

Air PRO Version 11 includes Cinegy's in-built channel branding, which makes it easy to control multiple channels that air identical content but require regionalised commercials and branding.

Cinegy will also showcase Cinegy Archive, as well as outline two initiatives, 'Cinegy as a Service' and 'Cinegy Open Tools'.

Cinegy as a Service means that all of Cinegy's software technology – commencing with Cinegy Air – is being ported to run via cloud-based services such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), thereby enabling prospective users to test drive Cinegy technology in an HD or 4K cloud.

Cinegy Open Tools is a free and open suite of tools and utilities such as high quality codec analysis and stream analyzer tools for broadcasters making the move to IP, or with plans to make other common workflow and/or playout transitions.

Daniella Weigner, Managing Director, co-owner and co-founder at Cinegy, said: "We're very excited about participating in Broadcast Asia. We've already enjoyed great success in the region, but the first hand exposure to the regional broadcasters and playout facility owners afforded by the region's most prestigious trade show will be invaluable. Our aim is to drive the industry forward by leading from the front. We very much look forward to sharing our products and ideas with one of the world's most vibrant broadcast markets."

Cinegy will demonstrate its software at Daxco Digital, Stand 4G2-04.
