Everything under control with On-Set Playback Control from DNF Controls
The application provides single-button random access to clips and graphics for unscripted events, controlling up to 24 different machines and allowing you to interact with sophisticated transitions on set.
DNF Controls announced this Tuesday the On-Set Playback Control application for live production environments. Based on DNF's Flex Control Network technology, it allows a single operator to control different machines over IP, solving all types of functional and control problems with maximum efficiency.
This specific combination of Flex technology allows a single technician to work on simultaneous, synchronized events with a single touch of a button, without the need to implement complex, custom programming. The new application has been developed specifically for management in live production environments, especially with respect to non-linear environments or breaking news, which involve media, video and graphics elements that are difficult to program with little time.
On-Set Playback Control Application eliminates the need for a second operator and additional equipment, while at the same time increasing production value. The application provides single-button random access to clips and graphics for unscripted events, controlling up to 24 different machines and allowing you to interact with sophisticated transitions on set.
Dan Fogel, director of technology at DNF Controls, highlights that "the arrival of high definition and flat screen monitors has brought a large amount of images to the studio, adding another layer of complexity to the broadcast that a technical director has to manage. This application is very specific in efficient workflow and reducing the technician's load so that the quality always remains high, without the expense of additional personnel. Now, a single technician can control everything that the audience will be able to see in real time without the need to synchronize keystrokes. button.”
This solution consists of a CP20 unit, a VTR-like control panel and up to six DC20 device controllers, depending on the number of channels or devices to be controlled.
