Advanced Edition Software

Elevate your TriCaster productions to new heights of sophistication, creativity and productivity with the breakthrough capabilities of TriCaster Advanced Edition. With this included software, you can get even more out of TriCaster 460 including new, premium capabilities in the latest version that put the core TriCaster platforms in league with the flagship TriCaster 8000. You can now launch your shows beyond the ordinary without investing in racks of expensive equipment and add-on accessories.

Turns standard GigE LAN into a live production network

Unlike IP-based workflows that require expensive networking and infrastructure investments, NewTek’s Advanced IP Workflow uses standard LAN networking to connect your equipment, your control rooms, and your production facilities, creating a site-wide production ecosystem where everything sees everything—and any source can be used by anyone for any production.

Simplifies IP-based workflows

NewTek’s Advanced IP Workflow employs simplified configuration and management, bi-directional signal transmission and communication, extensive device networking and access, and sophisticated encoding and communication methods to enable more powerful, more versatile live production over IP on a less expensive, less complicated network infrastructure.

Links every device visible on the network

NewTek’s Advanced IP Workflow utilizes the Network Device Interface (NDI) protocol to make every enabled device, connected source, and video signal on your network—production switcher, replay system, computer, graphics machine, video calling system, etc.—visible and available as a source and/or destination for video over IP. NDI is also openly available as an SDK to any customer, manufacturer, or developer who wants to implement it into their products and workflows to accelerate their transition to IP.

Adds inputs to your production switcher

The NDI protocol—the foundation of NewTek’s Advanced IP Workflow—exposes the inputs and outputs of every networked device, and makes each available as a switchable source. This means you can access, route, and switch with every camera connected to a switcher in your facility, every shared computer on your LAN, every output signal from every device—any production component visible via NDI—increasing your live inputs exponentially without investing in a higher-capacity switcher or integrating video routing hardware.

Enables bi-directional video and audio over IP

Emerging IP workflows marginalize gains by simply replacing SDI cabling with Ethernet infrastructures. Many methods comprise linear, one-way, point-to-point distribution of a single video output signal over IP to a single destination. NewTek’s Advanced IP Workflow permits multi-directional, two-way signal transmission over IP, to and/or from any NDI-enabled device on your network. This means your switcher can simultaneously send its multiple input and output signals to the network for transport to multiple NDI destinations, and receive the input and output signals of every other NDI-enabled device over the network for use as sources.

TriCaster 8000

TriCaster 8000 is a complete live production and media publishing solution, built to keep pace with the rapidly changing landscape of video production, and to unleash the potential of your media strategy with unprecedented versatility.

NewTek AutoLink™ for Panasonic PTZ

AutoLink for Panasonic PTZ is a software application allowing users to connect IP-ready Panasonic professional video cameras to a network and detect their presence automatically from NewTek TriCaster and the IP Series Video Mix Engine. With NewTek AutoLink for Panasonic PTZ, Panasonic IP cameras detected on a network become immediately available for use in NDI-based video production workflows without any additional configuration. With NewTek AutoLink for Panasonic PTZ, users may have any number of Panasonic IP camer-as on standby, ready to take live into production. Compatible cameras include: AW-HE130, AW-HE40 and AW-UE70 PTZ cameras, as well as studio camera systems and AK-UB300 4K Box Camera with streaming outputs. Once the camera is recognized as a network video source, it be-comes accessible to any TriCaster or Video Mix Engine on the network. Video translation and transmission is only initiated when the camera source is selected, conserving valuable bandwidth and system resources.
