Cinegy Presents Multiviewer 12

Cinegy has announced Cinegy Multiviewer 12. This latest multiviewer enables users to bring together professional servers with mid-range NVIDIA graphics cards and decode 24 channels of HD.

Cinegy Multiviewer 12 can also share RAM with all relevant Cinegy software running on the same machine. Previously, if users wanted to take the output from Cinegy Air PRO, Cinegy Live, or Cinegy Capture and display it anywhere else, they would need to jump through an RTP hoop, i.e. create an MPEG transport stream, then compress and decompress it. However, with Cinegy Multiviewer 12 users can create a machine-wide frame buffer and instantly share that output with any Cinegy software application running on the same system.

Jan Weigner, Cinegy Co-Owner and Managing Director, said: "With the advanced power and increasing efficiency of CPUs and, more importantly, GPUs such as those produced by NVIDIA, it's very efficient to build a software-based multiviewer. The ability of Cinegy software to offload most processing onto the GPU to take full advantage of its power really sets it apart.

"The ability to share RAM is a highly efficient way to, for example, generate a quad-split preview. Frankly, getting 16 or more pictures on a screen is pretty easy, but what distances Multiviewer 12 from the rest is that it is very mature software. It's not 'just a multiviewer'. Multiviewer 12 includes multiple improvements to usability, with feature enhancements such as Dolby decoding; reactive PPM; loudness measurement; telemetry for loudness measurement; metadata display regarding stream types; and, with Version 12, we include all major captioning formats with teletext decoding. All of that, coupled with powerful, but inexpensive implementation, make it, if you will, a multitask-viewer that can devour the current multiviewer market."
