LIVE+ Mobile App makes reporters self-sufficient


By Ian McMurray


ANNOUNCED NOT long before IBC opened its doors, the Dejero LIVE+ Mobile App is available for download in Apple’s iTunes Store for use on the iPhone 4S or iPad. The App is said to enable both traditional and online broadcasters to transmit high quality HD or SD live video from a consumer device. Claimed to be an industry first, the LIVE+ Mobile App is capable of bonding multiple wireless signals to provide high quality live SD or HD video from the street to the television or web. Using the same bonded cellular technology as the Dejero LIVE+ 20/20 Transmitter, the LIVE+ Mobile App aggregates both the Wi-Fi and cellular


connections of the iPhone or iPad. The result of this bonding is said to be a higher quality live video transmission with lower latency than a single connection would provide.


The LIVE+ Mobile App can


transmit live video using both the front and back cameras of the iPhone or iPad during a single broadcast, enabling a reporter to create a complete breaking news story without the need for a camera operator or extra equipment. “The launch of the LIVE+ Mobile App gives broadcasters the ability to maximise content by transforming everyone in the organisation into a field reporter using just their iPhone or iPad,” said Bogdan Frusina, Dejero CTO. “This technology allows them to be first on a


Anton/Bauer: Power on Tap


THE NEWQRC-CA940 Gold Mount battery system for Canon’s EOS C300 and C500 digital cinema cameras is designed to power the cameras but also multiple accessories, writes David Fox. The system will not only provide 7.2v of power to the camera via a DC


connector, but also 14.4v on three PowerTap connectors. “Users can expect the same secure battery connection they’ve come to rely on with other Gold Mounts using the QRC-CA940,” said Shin Minowa, vice president of marketing and business development, Anton/Bauer. “This new Gold Mount, however, will offer three PowerTap outputs where typically we only have one, allowing professionals to power multiple accessories. In addition, this particular Gold Mount was designed so that users will not have to monitor multiple batteries, therefore reducing downtime in the field, as well as the number of chargers needing to be transported.” 11.E55

StarHub picks 4Caster for OTT


By Ian McMurray


SINGAPORE’S LEADING pay TV operator StarHub, with over 544,000 households on its books, has deployed Envivio’s Envivio4Caster for HDTV, OTT and mobile TV services. According to Envivio, its systems were selected by StarHub because of their excellent HDTV and multiscreen picture quality, low delay for broadcast services, good value and simple


integration with the rest of the network infrastructure. Envivio Muse encoding solutions – which are at the heart of Envivio4Caster — support HD and SD, MPEG-4 AVC (H.264) and MPEG-2, as well as a variety of other formats and resolutions for delivery to any device, including traditional television, connected TVs, PCs, tablets, gaming devices and smartphones.


“Envivio’s internally developed codecs are continuously enhanced to improve video quality and optimise bandwidth efficiency,” said Julien Signès, Envivio’s president and CEO. “It is critical that we provide customers, such as StarHub, with solutions that enable them to better serve their end-user customers and provide a high quality viewing experience.” 1.D73

BBC Research and Development, and 100Mbps AVC-I compression, the HD- SDI is converted and carried over the network with full broadcast quality video. This allows a remote camera to interface to an IP network and be used directly in the production environment. Stagebox provides video, audio and ancillary information over a time synchronous network. The system is completely synchronised providing IP equivalent to a genlocked SD- SDI system. 3.A68
