TelVue is pleased to announce the release of HyperCaster™ version 8.6 with the following key features:
- Motions Logos & Background
- Cloud Archiving to our brand new TelVue Cloud Storage service and Amazon S3
- NDI Output license option
- SCTE-35 Ad Triggers
Motion Logos & Backgrounds
Motion Logos and Backgrounds are great for adding pop to your on-air graphics and branding. Upload easy-to-create motion GIF files as bugs (motion logos) or background images for all overlay types including tickers, snipes, clocks, and program guides, and draw more attention to your channels.
Expanded Cloud Archiving Options – TelVue Cloud Storage & Amazon S3
New Cloud Archiving options seamlessly expand HyperCaster’s archive integration beyond on-premise Networked Attached Storage (NAS) and Archive.org. Now you can automatically archive and retrieve complete with advanced workflow rules to your own Amazon S3 storage, or TelVue’s brand new TelVue Cloud Storage service. TelVue Cloud Storage offers affordable, enterprise-grade, secure, private, backed-up, cloud storage for broadcast archiving. TelVue Cloud Storage also supports an access-from-anywhere browser interface for managing multiple users, files and folders, and is also S3 compatible. TelVue Cloud Storage makes broadcast archiving hassle-free, so you don’t have to worry about servers, hard drives, RAID, or backups.
NDI Output
NDI Output is a new license option for HyperCaster AIO models expanding the available output formats to SDI, Transport Stream, RTMP, HLS, and now NDI. The HyperCaster AIO has long supported NDI input for live and records. NDI output adds utility for monitoring, loopback, and other NDI-centric applications and workflows.
SCTE-35 Ad Triggers
HyperCaster v8.6 expands on the existing SCTE-104 Ad Trigger features by adding support for automatic conversion to SCTE-35 in the following scenarios:
- SDI inputs with SCTE-104 playing to Transport Stream outputs
- SDI inputs with SCTE-104 recorded to file
- Scheduled secondary event Ad Triggers on Transport Stream outputs
