Cinegy And TrackIt Deliver Live Cloud Production Demonstration At NAB Show 2022

Cinegy and TrackIt will join forces at this year’s NAB Show to bring a live demonstration of cloud-based production to the AWS booth with Cinegy Capture forming a key part of the ingest workflow.

TrackIt specializes in helping the Media and Entertainment industry architect, automate and optimize AWS cloud pipelines, and provides workflow enhancements through custom software development and API integrations. Cinegy’s commitment to bringing its modern production workflow tools to cloud-based environments using its standard APIs gives the two companies a strong synergy in driving the transition to flexible, scalable cloud-based production forward.

“Cinegy is extremely excited to be working with TrackIt, a prolific cloud management products and professional services provider, to play a part in enhancing the ingest and delivery experiences on AWS, one of the most well-used and stable public cloud platforms available,” said Daniella Weigner, Managing Director of Cinegy GmbH. “Such collaborations really help bring best-of-breed solutions to market, and we are delighted that our solutions have been selected by TrackIt to enhance their already impressive and robust value chain.”

During the live demonstration, TrackIt will ingest content using Cinegy Capture, where the stream will be saved to a shared global file system, Hammerspace. Hammerspace in turn will provide local access to the content at a remotely sited Amazon Nimble Studio ”studio-in-the-cloud” editorial environment. Cinegy Air is planned to be used as part of the final delivery utilizing Amazon’s CloudFront content distribution network.

”TrackIt is delighted to be working with Cinegy to provide cutting-edge solutions such as our NAB demonstration of an integrated remote workflow that provides real benefits to modern broadcasters and streaming providers. Using Cinegy’s best-in-class video solutions and TrackIt’s integration expertise providers can automate and accelerate their previously complicated media pipelines,” said Brad Winett, TrackIt President.

Cinegy Capture delivers cost effective, centralized ingest controlled by anyone in a workgroup. It reinvents the acquisition and transcode process, unifying the task of ingesting material and generating edit or web proxies. This solution can be used as an appliance, requiring just a standard PC and one or multiple SDI cards, with the simple yet powerful cross-platform control client – whenever or wherever needed.

Designed to meet even the most demanding requirements, Cinegy Air effortlessly controls multiple channels playing to air and plans schedules, program and commercial blocks offline. Multiple remote or local users can control the schedule and playout operation, and the solution offers unparalleled flexibility by playing mixed format and mixed resolution content, as well as un-rendered edit sequences straight to air. Cinegy Air also enables simulcast outputs via SDI, NDI and/or IP streams for ATSC/DVB or web usage and provides full SRT support for secure delivery and reception over WAN and Internet.
