Mosart Medialab’s AS products
Mosart Newscast Automation makes it possible to produce a world-class newscast with just one or two operators in the gallery. Mosart controls more than 55 broadcast devices: vision and audio mixers, video servers, graphics systems, camera robots, studio video walls, light desks, and other systems through dedicated protocols. The user can plan the full studio production in a newsroom computer system (NRCS). Mosart continuously synchronises its rundown with the NRCS, but the user can deviate from this rundown at any time to accommodate breaking news events. GUI has been further refined in the tools it offers for breaking news coverage. With Mosart Newscast Automation 3.4, users can assign more advanced content sequences to shortcuts. Further functionality allows users to send such content directly to the studio walls. Mosart also has enhanced the drivers for CasperCG and ORAD graphics, as well as Studer audio (now using EmBER), and the automation system now supports an unlimited number of video server channels. On the newsroom side, enhancements include support for Mosart commands in foreign MOS items and the ability to select the iNEWS interface as FTP or MOS.

DSLR prompter and new app by Autocue
Autocue will launch the first prompter designed specifically for a DSLR. The prompter mounts in front of the DSLR, directly to a standard set of 15mm DSLR rails, making the prompter extremely lightweight. This means that DSLR users can mount a range of accessories on to the rails as normal. Autocue sells its own 15mm rail camera mounting kit if you don’t have one of your own. The DSLR prompter will be available in two variants – the first one uses a universal iPad mount (including the iPad Mini and other tablets) and the second is an 8-inch monitor. 11.45

WORK Microwave’s new portfolio
WORK Microwave will present its portfolio of DVB-S2 modems, modulators, and demodulators. A key highlight will be the company’s new video ACM system, which combines WORK Microwave’s DVB-S2 Modem SK-DV with Adtec Digital’s EN-91 MPEG-4 HD ultra-low delay encoder to improve an operator’s video quality significantly while reducing operational expenses (OPEX). Leveraging DaVid technology, the SK-DV modem concurrently transports up to six MPEG transport streams and IP data into a DVB-S2 multistream, enabling simultaneous transportation of data (network connection) and live broadcasting (video content) over a single satellite carrier.
