Time Media Indexing and ePRO-BUS Remote Control Added to Popular Digital Video
Encoder
LEIGHTRONIX announced that the PEGvault-SD encoder, known
for simplifying digital video recordings with push button operation and automatic
digital media file transfers, has been enhanced with real time media indexing
and new remote control capabilities.
Media Indexing
This
new PEGvault-SD feature allows users to enter reference points within a video,
as it is being recorded. Index points can be added to a video in real time, and
are later used by online viewers, requesting on-demand playback from PEG Central,
the popular LEIGHTRONIX hosted streaming video-on-demand site.
At PEG
Central, viewers benefit from the convienence of on-demand, steaming video while
gaining a host of features that enhance the viewing experience, including folders,
keyword search, video Web links, Web links within videos, and index points that
link to topics of interest within videos.
Remote Control The
PEGvault-SD has been enhanced with the new ePRO-BUS feature, a device addressable,
remote control protocol allowing the encoder to receive commands remotely through
a TCP/IP network. Up to 16 PEGvault-SD encoders can be added to a network as far
reaching as the Internet for control by a LEIGHTRONIX NEXUS series broadcast video
server. Once configured, the NEXUS series server can send scheduled RECORD and
STOP commands to one or all of the PEGvault-SD encoders on the network.
The
ePRO-BUS feature provides fully unattended recording control for an array of remote
recorders that capture remote events then automatically forward the new digital
media to their host server for playback. This new functionality is essential in
communities where multiple municipalities contribute content, and share time on
a single local government access cable channel.
The PEGvault-SD is a popular
solution for capturing and digitizing video in a variety of situations, one being
local government customers, who record city council meetings for replay on local
government access cable channels. The enhancements now come as standard features
of the PEGvault-SD, and can be enabled for current UltraNEXUS and UltraNEXUS-SDI
users through a free firmware update.
“We are thrilled to offer
our PEGvault-SD customers these new features,” said David Leighton, President
of LEIGHTRONIX. “It’s truly a unique, innovative product that combines
low-cost, performance, and reliability. The new features set the PEGvault-SD apart
from complicated and often overpriced PC-based video encoding work stations.”
