Telestream has released ScreenFlow 10, the latest version of the company’s video editing and recording software for the Mac.

Starting at $149, the tenth version of the software features a new integrated title library, enhanced colour effect presets, an automatic background remover, support for Apple Silicon hardware and an archive storage feature. “We’ve really raised the bar in screen capture and editing again with ScreenFlow 10,” comments SVP of marketing at Telestream, Scott Murray.

BUILDING IN GENLOCK

Artel Video Systems has introduced a built-in genlock synchronisation functionality for the SMART Media Delivery Platform, using its DigiLink and InfinityLink system. “We’re always working to increase operational and functional simplicity for our customers, and this addition is a great example of this,” says VP of product management Rafael Fonseca. By enabling a SMART JPEG-2000 decoder (in order to accept a reference SDI input and aligning video signals), the new feature supports frame synchronisation of incoming video sources to a local timing source – without need for an external frame-sync device.

“For many users, it’s the only tool they need. ScreenFlow 10 goes far beyond what competing applications can do – and does so with ease.” ScreenFlow 10 is optimised to streamline content creation – and features up to 250% smaller camera recordings, with up to 75% less CPU usage during camera recording.

SLOW-MO DEVELOPMENTS

KEEP UP WITH CONTENT TRENDS

XtraMotion has been unveiled by EVS – an on-demand cloud- based service that uses AI to transform video content into slow-motion replays. Developed to help enhance viewing experience when it comes to broadcasters’ slow- motion capabilities, the service enables slow-motion on almost every camera angle, as the high frame rate is created on-demand, rather than natively. “The main driver behind XtraMotion is very simple: to generate great-looking super slow-motion pictures with very short time to air,” comments EVS solutions manager Christophe Messa. Native slow-motion sources cannot usually be deployed in every environment. Most point- of-view cameras can’t produce slow-motion video – and the full approach of adding slow-motion capture can come with large costs.

Iron Mountain Entertainment Services (IMES) has launched Smart Vault, a media asset management solution for IMES’ storage services, that provides broadcasters, production companies, brands and sports rights holders with a solution for content management, storage and archiving. SMART STORAGE SOLUTIONS A new solution has been unveiled by Grass Valley, entitled the Playout Xpress. It allows playout customers to quickly adapt to changing audience trends, rapidly originating content and accessing more pop-up feeds and social media. “In today’s dynamically shifting media market, customers need to engage with global audiences that can no longer be reached through one or two platforms,” describes senior commercial director Karl Mehring.

“Playout is crucial in enabling customers to spin services up and down quickly in the most cost-efficient way.” An onsite, pre-commissioned system, Playout Xpress allows users to define their specific broadcasting requirements. “Our portfolio of playout solutions is designed to support everything from high density, enterprise-level applications to cloud-native systems, meeting the needs of temporary pop-up channels. We’re excited to launch Playout Xpress,” says Mehring.

Smart Vault enables easy access to content, providing quick visibility to large volumes of media. The solution possesses AI/ML capabilities, and additional functionality allows users to share media and create workflows for media production, in turn increasing efficiency within the chain.
