Simplylive Rolls Out New R8 Replay Server
Story Highlights
Simplylive has released the R8 replay system to bring replay solutions in a new efficient form factor. The R8 is a new, compact replay system designed to offer the high-end replay functions for smaller production requirements.
The R8 offers the same intuitive user interface that has become a landmark of the ViBox product range. Along with the touchscreen interface, the operator has the dedicated replay controller that offers the best experience for jogging and lever control with the interaction of the touchscreen. The full video available within the replay UI allows for a minimal footprint without the need for additional monitoring. All the action exists in front of the operator for multi-angle control and review to quickly find the best replay angles.
The new R8 is designed in a compact but powerful 1RU server with 8-Channels for up to 6 camera inputs for instant replays and highlights along with options for exporting all clipped media content. The R8 does not sacrifice on quality with the 120/145 Mbps DNxHD codec and video formats up to 1080p. The R8 includes flexible I/O options with SDI, NDI, TS UDP, TS RTP or SRT configurations and up to 16 channels of embedded audio per video channel.
“The Simplylive ViBox replay systems have become powerful, industry leading solutions with our networking capability and high channel densities, including UHD HDR, for large scale productions,” says Simplylive Managing Director Luc Doneux. “The R8 will bring the same level of replay power in a compact, efficient chassis designed for shipping optimization and robustness. We designed a revisited user experience in this compact, multi-channel solution at the right price.”
The new R8 will be shipping in June!
