Magewell has added a new section to its website to make it easier for church technical teams and volunteers to learn more about live streaming and the company's relevant products. Combining fresh content with curated existing material, the compilation features best practices articles, tutorials, case studies, and focused product information to help houses of worship start streaming for the first time or enhance their existing streaming workflows.
"While some churches have been streaming their worship services for many years, the pandemic took streaming to a whole new level of importance," said Amy Zhou, Sales Director at Magewell. "Even as worshippers return to church sanctuaries, streaming will continue to play a crucial role for followers who do not feel comfortable coming back or are unable to attend in person. Many churches rely almost entirely on volunteers for their video operations who may have little or no previous streaming experience, so we wanted to make it easier for them to find relevant resources on our website."
Just Add Power today announced that its leading video-over-IP distribution solutions are now supported by Enado's V5 controller software. Ideal for commercial, enterprise, and BYOD applications, this integration provides any number of users with contactless control over a Just Add Power system on their personal devices — while offering online programming capabilities to integrators — by simply scanning a QR code.
Unlike traditional control systems, Enado control interfaces can be viewed on any smartphone, tablet, or PC running a compatible web browser. There is no need to download an app or invest in specialized hardware. With the V5 software's QR code functionality, users can access the control interface for a Just Add Power system with their own devices, and use them to switch sources, power displays on and off, set a video wall configuration or tiler layout, manage a Warp Engine transmitter, and more. In addition, with Enado's online programming capabilities, integrators can dramatically reduce service calls by remotely maintaining the system.

The 10,000 free downloads were consumed in less than 2 hours on Wednesday following the announcement.

NDI®, a Vizrt Group brand, unveiled NDI version 5 – a true revolution in video storytelling that turns the whole world into your studio. From the planet’s largest broadcasters to billions of everyday smartphone users with a story to tell, NDI 5 makes it possible, for the first time in history, to connect to any device, in any location, anywhere in the world – and transmit live video to wherever you are. Physical studios can connect to ones in the cloud and remote video production effectively becomes local.
NDI for Adobe® Creative Cloud® enables editors and producers to bring Adobe Premiere® Pro into their local live productions’ workflows and collaboration for review and approval. With NDI 5, these workflows open up beyond the local area network so editors and artists can use NDI for live production and collaboration across multiple offices and locations – including their homes.

InGear today announced that it is now offering the LIVE! end-to-end interactive virtual event platform as a service to the pro-AV and custom-install markets. A dynamic, customizable, and economical alternative to conventional trade shows and conferences, LIVE! is a new kind of online experience designed to deliver everything people value about live events — real interactivity and meaningful engagement among participants — with a dedicated production team to handle all of the details, from event planning and promotion to post-event follow up and analytics.
"Even with the easing of COVID-19 restrictions, virtual events are here for the foreseeable future," said Veronica Esbona, president of InGear. "For some, this may not seem like great news. After all, as a replacement for trade shows, conferences, or business meetings, video conferencing platforms have thus far been disappointing because they lack what people actually like about attending live events — the human connection. However, by enabling real interactivity among participants, that is exactly what LIVE! is designed to deliver. The result is the first virtual platform that puts people first, supported by a team dedicated to making every event a success."
