Dejero Cloud-Managed IP
Connectivity And Workflows

A

t IBC2016, Dejero will be
showcasing
the
latest
enhancements to its LIVE+ Control
management system that simplifies the
task of broadcasting live from remote
locations and transporting recorded
content to broadcast facilities over
bonded IP networks including cellular,
Wi-Fi, Ethernet or satellite.
The
latest
updates
enhance
monitoring, station administration,
and reporting capabilities, displaying
real-time analytics of network
connection performance, and overall
transmission quality for each Dejero
transmitter.
These updates to the Dejero LIVE+
Control management system go hand
in hand with the recent release of
version 4.0 of the company's LIVE+
Core software that powers its industry
leading mobile transmitters, servers,
and smartphone and notebook apps.
This major new software release is
making its IBC debut this year and

has added significant new
capabilities to the LIVE+
platform of products including
an enhanced congestion control
algorithm and faster transport
of files.
In a related IBC2016 first,
Dejero will also be showing off
its collaboration with Grass
Valley, which sees its LIVE+
Control embedded into the GV
STRATUS video production and
content management system.
This allows users to move recorded
clips from a LIVE+ Broadcast Server
to the STRATUS Express server. Files
are automatically transcoded to the
desired format for previewing and use.
Working together, Dejero and Grass
Valley are simplifying the overall filebased workflow to meet the needs of
news production.
Visitors to IBC2016 will also see
the first European demonstrations
of the convenient SIM module and

exceptional picture quality with
extremely low latency.
"Dejero
has
turned
industry hype about 'IP' and
'the cloud' into reality by
providing broadcasters with
the tools that help them
do their jobs better, faster
and more cost-effectively,
without compromising quality
and immediacy," said Brian
Cram, CEO of Dejero. "We

AVIWEST Highlights
For IBC2016

A

t
IBC2016,
AVIWEST
will
demonstrate
the
latest
enhancements to its live video
contribution and distribution systems.
AVIWEST's advanced live video
contribution
platform
enables
broadcasters to capture and broadcast
live 4K, HD, or SD video over multiple
unmanaged IP networks, including
bonded 4G/3G cellular, Wi-Fi, Ethernet,
and satellite links.
AVIWEST will demonstrate a new
version of its DMNG APP, featuring an
optimised interface, advanced camera
settings (e.g., focus, exposure, white
balance), dynamic resolution, and
video quality improvements.
The DMNG APP is now available
as an SDK, allowing broadcasters to
develop a personalised application
that is based on AVIWEST technology
and fully integrated into the AVIWEST
ecosystem.
AVIWEST's HE4000 contribution

and distribution video encoder
supports
HEVC
compression
to optimise the distribution of
SD, HD, and 4K content over
unmanaged networks such as
the public Internet. The HE4000
implements
a
best-in-class
HEVC/H.265
video
encoder,
allowing
broadcasters to deliver
the same visual quality as H.264/AVC
at 50 percent of the bitrate, up to
4K resolution. Thanks to AVIWEST's
SafeStreams
technology,
which
implements an intelligent IP bonding
stack, and powerful contribution
network protocols, such as the
H-ARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat
Request) mechanism, the HE4000
assures the delivery of live video
even in the midst of unpredictable
and unmanaged network conditions,
enabling broadcasters to provide
seamless news and sports coverage

AVIWEST DMNG Laptop

from any location around the world.
By combining HEVC encoding and
AVIWEST's SafeStreams contribution
technology, the HE4000 dramatically
reduces bandwidth costs while
guaranteeing superior video quality.
The DMNG Laptop is a powerful
newsgathering tool that combines an
H.264/AVC and H.265/HEVC encoder in
an Apple MacBook Pro to enable highquality streaming. Using the DMNG
Laptop, broadcasters can receive
video content from a wide range of
video sources, including webcams

and external SDI/HDMI cameras. The
laptop application features an intuitive
GUI that makes it easy to manage
various content delivery profiles
(e.g., BGAN, cellular, ADSL, etc.),
providing support for a variety
of
broadcast
applications,
including live streaming, file
transfer via various networks,
and storage. By detecting and
bonding together multiple IP
network interfaces, the DMNG
Laptop enables broadcasters
to take advantage of every
IP network in their
immediate area as they
become available.
At IBC2016, AVIWEST will showcase
two major evolutions of the DMNG
Manager: video grid and statistics
capabilities.
AVIWEST's
DMNG
Manager enables broadcasters and
video professionals to monitor and
manage an entire fleet of DMNG
equipment.
AVIWEST will demonstrate the
latest version of its DMNG StreamHub
receiver, decoder, and distribution
platform, and the latest version of
its popular DMNG PRO video uplink
system.
