Stories with legs: Octopus keeps more than 400 newsrooms moving every day


Octopus Newsroom BY KEVIN EMMOTT


Delivering new ways to manage newsroom production across news, radio, esports, WebTV and sports broadcasting, Octopus Newsroom is unveiling a variety of new tools and updates as well as a brand-new look here at IBC. This year, its Octopus 12 system has a revamped web client that brings the full power of the Octopus ecosystem into a browser. It is designed for


teams working collaboratively across multiple locations with no installation necessary. The company is also


showcasing its latest Contextual AI tools, aiming to understand the full story and not just the keywords. Octopus says that whether a user is summarising, rewriting, or adapting content for different audiences, AI in Octopus always acts as a smart assistant rather than a replacement. For full control, it can even be run on-prem, with full data privacy. 6.C12


PRESENTING A COLLABORATIVE VISION OF THE FUTURE Guntermann & Drunck BY KEVIN EMMOTT


rooms, VisionVS aims to simplify system integration, reduce


system components and enhance operational effi ciency.


Together with sister company VuWall, Guntermann & Drunck is introducing VisionVS at IBC, a compact, dual-encoding hybrid appliance that combines high- performance KVM control with advanced video wall visualisation. Designed to meet the increasing demands of modern control


Integrating G&D’s KVM and KVM-over-IP technologies with VuWall’s IP-based video wall ecosystem, VisionVS bridges two traditionally separate systems. The unit captures KVM sources and simultaneously transmits two independent streams: one using G&D’s bluedec format to


feed the KVM matrix systems, and another using VuWall’s proprietary encoding to PAK video wall processors, operator workstations, or for remote access.


This dual-stream architecture allows operators to manage real- time content distribution “with near-zero latency”, while reducing hardware footprint, cabling and installation complexity. VisionVS supports both fi bre


and copper connections and features a DisplayPort 1.1 input with a loop-through HDMI 1.4 output. Each interface supports up to 2560×1600 at 60Hz or 4096×2160 at 30Hz. The appliance delivers two encrypted streams – one high- bandwidth pixel-perfect stream and the other optimised for low bandwidth, multiviewing and remote monitoring. 8.B51
