At this year’s centennial NAB show, Lawo and Haivision are pleased to announce that Lawo’s newly introduced HOME Apps will support streams received in the SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) format – including the ability to transcode and transmit a variety of incoming source streams to SRT-compatible destinations.
Lawo’s intention is to present broadcasters and media production services with the utmost flexibility and agility to cover live events whose scope and/or target viewership do not justify the utilization of broadcast-grade ST2110-based production tools and infrastructure, or indeed the lease of high-bandwidth network infrastructure in remote production scenarios. Lawo expects that other applications, such as the ability to use a mix of SDI-, SRT- and ST2110-compatible cameras, OTT streaming, fast retrieval of assets, etc., will also benefit from its support of SRT.

FOR-A has combined select products into an integrated, “best of breed” system designed specifically for houses of worship. The volunteer-friendly, intuitive approach is ideally suited for I-MAG and streaming applications. The package is comprised of video production switchers, servers, graphics, playout, and all-in-one production systems.
“This is a tightly integrated series of products, each selected based on their feature sets and the way they address challenges specific to live and pre-produced programming for house of worship A/V teams,” said Adam Daniul, FOR-A director of midwest and south regional sales. “With the huge growth in online viewership, services can no longer afford issues like latency, poor image quality, or not enough inputs and outputs.
