EVS takes advantage of the flexibility offered by IP and virtualization

The introduction of S.Core Master marks the next step in the adoption of new technological infrastructures so that operators can focus more on better content creation without having to think about infrastructure management.

In order for facilities operating within IP environments to orchestrate live IP flows, EVS This IBC 2017 debuts a new orchestration solution. S.Core Master will offer engineers better visibility into all endpoints within an IP connected network and act as its central orchestrator, ensuring media bandwidth delivery across the entire infrastructure.

The system uses SDN control methods to manage latency-sensitive live media and allows engineers to communicate with entire IP infrastructures at once. Where IP leads to greater deployment of virtualized services, the implementation of S.Core Master will allow users to deliver live streams wherever needed within a network. This removes operational hurdles from implementing new technologies and creates a more efficient overall workflow.

Fully interoperable with third-party systems, S.Core Master will initially be made available to operators on a standard EVS back-end application server. This enables easier integration into real-time IP workflows and allows users to control the system through a web browser-based application.

In addition to managing live IP streams, S.Core Master will also allow operators to monitor IP-enabled networks and service aspects of the facility to maintain the system's assurance of fast and efficient delivery of live content around the live production infrastructure.

X One, an all-in-one

With live productions in mind that require six cameras or less, EVS is exhibiting its X-One all-in-one solution at IBC 2017. Extremely versatile, the system makes work easier by being able to work with templates (stored in the cloud) that allow you to configure the equipment for sports, concerts or other production needs, putting all the capabilities of a control room in the hands of a single operator capable of controlling everything from his touch screen.

In addition, the new

EVS's software-defined architecture is built on a new foundation of GPU-based technology that opens up more creative capabilities for users who are able to customize their operation workflows. The software-defined architecture has been implemented so far in the DYVI mixer, the Xeebra VAR system and other EVS products currently in development.

The system natively supports AIMS IP ST 2110 compatible sources while assisting production operators with features that can be implemented through a series of applications and plugins that can be added to the system. The X-One architecture can be easily configured to expand inputs/outputs as well as offer UHD-4K formats for future needs.

It allows ingest from six camera channels, as well as importing media from any other file, which operators use to create replays, control audio, cut or mix a live source with the built-in video mixer and even add on-air graphics.
