WealthTV finds its Muse
By Ian McMurray
WEALTHTV, AN independent cable TV network based in the United States, has selected Envivio encoding solutions to extend its broadcast service to Asia. WealthTV is using Envivio Muse iTV encoding software on the Envivio 4Caster appliance for HD content distribution of its live broadcast services to TVs, PCs and other mobile devices. “WealthTV continues to increase
its viewership around the world, and we are excited to offer viewers in Asia access to our full range of programming,” said Charles Herring, president of WealthTV. “In looking for a solution provider to help us with our latest expansion, we were impressed with Envivio and the outstanding picture quality, flexibility and feature set of the Muse encoders. “We have invested in our product
development to provide WealthTV and other content providers with a high quality solution that meets their needs for delivery to the television or any other screen,” said Julien Signès, Envivio president and CEO. “Optimal video quality, low delay and high reliability are critical for live distribution of HD content, and we are focused on delivering the technology that can help facilitate our customers’ success.” Envivio Muse software-based encoders support live and on- demand services and are available on the Envivio 4Caster 1RU appliance or HP BladeSystems in an IT-centric datacentre environment. 1.D73
On the face of it: The new Zylight F8 LED Fresnel light
recorder that has the bandwidth to capture open standard CinemaDNG RAW, ProRes and DNxHD files. It includes an LCD touchscreen, Thunderbolt connection, and comes with a copy of DaVinci Resolve for colour correction and Blackmagic UltraScope software for waveform monitoring. The camera is
compatible with Canon EF and Zeiss ZF mount lenses. “We are very excited to see the first units of the Blackmagic Cinema Camera begin to ship,” said Dan May, president of Blackmagic. “There has been an incredibly positive response around the Cinema Camera’s ability to provide film quality images, an open workflow designed for
easy post production, all in a compact, elegant design that is affordable. This is the result of a huge amount of hard work by everyone here at Blackmagic Design, and the enthusiastic reaction we have already received from people across all parts of the creative world has been amazing.”
Blackmagic’s DaVinci Resolve 9,
a new version of its colour correction software that includes a new user interface, was also slated to ship at press time. These technologies will be
exhibited at IBC in September. 7.H20
Zylight: Next generation LED Fresnel
THE NEWF8 LED Fresnel from Zylight is claimed to be the next generation of Fresnel light, with a thin, lightweight design, water-resistant IP54 rating, and rugged construction quality, writes David Fox.
Like a traditional Fresnel light, it also offers: single shadow beam shaping through barn doors; continuous focusing; and a smooth light field. Available in 3,200K or 5,600K colour temperature versions, it offers completely silent operation, and
can be powered by either a worldwide AC power adapter or standard 14.4v camera battery. In the studio, it can be
controlled via DMX or remotely via the built-in ZyLink wireless link. Local control such as dimming, focus and wireless operation are provided on the rear of the F8. It has an adjustable beam spread between 16-70˚ and has an equivalent output of a traditional 650W fixture. 11.D78
