REMOVING COMPLEXITY FROM VIDEO MANAGEMENT
Cambridge Imaging
Systems
Stand: N15
By Heather McLean
Cambridge Imaging Systems
is presenting the latest version
of its Imagen Enterprise Video
Platform here at BVE 2015.
The new version includes
WYSIWIG interfaces that
further simplify the way in which
content owners can manage
their vast quantities of data.
Imagen v3.5 gives full control
of the user experience with
WYSIWG page editors and a
range of handy widgets. Its
intuitive web interfaces enable
easy search and retrieval and
provides users with a great
range of features that will
enable them to play, edit,
download, share and much
more, according to Cambridge
Imaging Systems.
With support for some of the
world’s major storage appliances,
Imagen can be installed on-
premises as part of an existing
broadcast archive or production
workflow, or accessed as a pay-
as-you-grow cloud-based service
with infinite storage capacity.
Tom Blake, managing
director, Cambridge Imaging
Systems, said: “When it comes
to content, there are two key
problems facing the broadcast
industry today: how to centrally
manage and archive the
enormous amounts of video
being generated by companies
in the media and entertainment
industry, and how to provide
your audience with access to
that content in a cost effective
and efficient way. Imagen
answers these issues, providing
a long-term archive for media
while simultaneously making it
available to staff and customers
online through a highly
customisable website.”
Imagen users include
Endemol, IMG, the BBC,
Channel 4, ITN, the Imperial War
Museum and the British Library.

Stand: C36
By Melanie
Dayasena-Lowe
Shotoku Broadcast Systems
starts 2015 by marking its 70th
anniversary as a supplier to the
broadcast industry. At this year’s
BVE, the company is showing
its range of manual camera
supports for professional, OB
and studio applications, as well
as offering demonstrations of its
Robotic Camera Control Systems
which are used extensively in
live news production,
parliamentary broadcasting and
24-hour shopping channels
around the world.
The company is highlighting
its popular and cost-effective SP
Professional Tripod series, aimed
at professional applications, which
was received with much success
at last year’s BVE. In addition,
the company is showcasing its
SH100 ENG Fluid head, versatile
SX300 EFP pan tan tilt head, and
the TP200 studio pedestal.
The SX300 features
outstanding balance, a robust
build and ergonomic design.
With a high capacity 40kg
(88lbs) payload and wide-
balance capability, the SX300
supports an array of cameras,
lenses and accessories,
making it suitable for field
production, OB and studio use.
The ergonomically designed
TP200 handles a maximum
payload of more than 80kg
(177lbs) and supports a wide
range of camera configurations.
One-step foot brake and
single-action cable guard
enables precise movements
and control at all times for
fast, easy positioning.
The SH series pan and
tilt fluid head’s drag controls
make it easy to adjust the
head from low to high torque
to provide the smooth, high
quality movement needed for
calm, clear camera work.
Designed as a multipurpose
head, suitable for news,
documentary, drama, and
live sports work, the SH100
is one of Shotoku’s premier
ENG/EFP pan and tilt heads.
The SH120 extends system
coverage for payloads of
up to 25kg.
Shotoku is also using BVE
as an opportunity to offer a
preview of the newest addition
to its family, its lightweight
pedestal system, that will be
officially introduced in Q2.
VS4RECORDER PRO APP
Matrox Video
Stand: J19
By Heather McLean
VS4Recorder Pro, a multi-
camera recording and
multiviewer app for use with
Matrox VS4 quad HD capture
cards, is being demonstrated
here at BVE by Matrox Video.
Launched last September,
each VS4-based recording
system captures up to four
video and audio inputs to create
files for use with popular editing
apps from Adobe, Apple and
Avid and for archiving. H.264 is
provided in either MOV or MP4
wrappers, while AVI files can be
created using the high quality
Matrox MPEG 2 I-Frame codec.
MOV QuickTime files can be
created using DV, DVCPRO,
DVCPRO50 and DVCPRO HD.
VS4Recorder Pro also functions
as a multiviewer, offering
pristine video quality even when
monitoring interlaced sources on
progressive computer monitors.
“Synchronised, frame-
accurate, multi-channel HD
capture is simpler and more
affordable than ever before,”
said Wayne Andrews, product
manager, Matrox Video. “With
VS4 Recorder Pro, live event
producers and video editors get
the quality, versatility and intuitive
control they want, at a fraction
of the usual cost. Complete
systems can be assembled for
as little as $3,500 and as much
storage as needed can easily
be added.”
Additional features of
VS4Recorder Pro include:
automatic input detection for
quick on-site set up; event
markers for Adobe Premiere
CC so that while recording,
users can highlight moments
of interest for quicker post-
event editing; settings for
capture duration and file
switching without frame loss;
VS4Control for gang recording
of an unlimited number of video
sources simply by networking
multiple VS4-enabled machines
together in a master-slave
configuration; and DirectShow
filters for developers to
incorporate VS4 functionality
in their own applications. VS4-
based systems are also ideal
for multi-camera live production
streaming with Telestream
Wirecast for Windows or
StudioCoast vMix software.
The SX300 supports an
array of cameras, lenses
and accessories, making it
suitable for field production,
OB and studio use
