IvsNewsManager Server is a revolutionary solution for the production of television Infochannel kind programs, adaptable to any kind of demand; television news, live sports, elections, video portal, advanced live titling and now with the option ivsVideoJUKEBOX it is possible to broadcast  video on demand or interative games.

It was realized "around" real needs of television broadcasters who have collaborated with us to the realization of the project.


IvsNewsManager Server improves any other pre-existent realizations under all the points of view; with only one system, thanks to the Leitch dpsQuattrus power you can get the most advanced video server and infochannel, we are able to add 4 video sources, live and coming from Hard Disk Drives (LAN and SAN are fully supported) and to scale, rotate and to position them through four high quality 3D Hardware DVEs.

 

Twelve indipendent graphic layers are used to handle: two tickers (two indipendent crawl rows, different for color, size, font, speed, direction, trasparency, shadow), a real time customizable clock (date, day, year, hh:mm:ss) and others 9 graphic layers (to add other news, broadcaster, sponsor, decorative elements, logos, etc.).

 

Video quality is the highest available, all graphics and videos can be 4:2:2 compressed or uncompressed. Data rates can be from 8 to 168 Mbps per each video or graphic stream.

 

All the playable elements (organized in 13 playlists and 3 panels) are totally dynamic; it is possible to change all during the live broadcast in both remotely by clients and locally using the main user interface; add, remove, edit ,change playlist order and trim IN-OUT points of the news, video clips and graphics during the playback. It is possible to change color, size, shadows, transparency and position of the Crawls and static text news in live broadcast session, as well as changing speed and direction of Crawls.

 

It is possible manually swap audio and/or video streams on DVEs or AV inputs using included software switcher.

 

Some presets are bundled with the software, but thanks to the built-in tools (DVEs, graphic layers, etc. ), any users can create his own presets very easily.

 

All the news and in general all playlists can be updated or added both locally and remotely, through unlimited clients or automatic .xml and .txt file recognition.

 

For interactive TV programs, ivsNewsManager Server can handle SMS sent by mobile phones, not only to show them live, but to deliver playlists too (e.g. video juke box, live polls, etc.)

 

IvsNewsManager Server can be easily integrated with third party softwares to add other custom features. (ivsNewsManagerSDK)
