Ross Video has introduced Carbonite HyperMax, a flexible and powerful platform for production switching, routing, video and audio processing, multiviewer monitoring, and ultra-high-resolution video compositing.
Networks, by their very definition are dispersed. But some are more dispersed than others, especially when we look at the challenges multi-site and remote teams face.
Videlio Events, a leading French systems integrator, has successfully deployed Riedel’s MediorNet HorizoN platform to create innovative hybrid SDI/IP production environments. Videlio has implemented three standalone flyaway video control rooms built around MediorNet HorizoN, which provides IP gateways and UDX & SDR/HDR conversion, alongside MediorNet MicroN UHD for routing and multiviewing. Building on a partnership that has spanned over a decade, this deployment marks a significant milestone in the broadcast industry’s transition to IP-based workflows while maintaining the reliability of traditional SDI systems.
Key audio themes at NAB 2025 remain persistently familiar – remote workflows, distributed teams, and ultra-efficiency… and of course AI.
