Amsterdam, March 7, 2014 – Highlights for the 2014 NAB Show include software solutions for studio automation, visual radio and bringing web content such as Skype and Social Media on air.

VidiGo Studio Automation

At the 2014 NAB Show VidiGo will present breakthrough technology for the automation of live news productions. VidiGo Studio Automation enables broadcasters to produce a newscast with just one or two operators by scripting the entire format and automating tasks. This optimizes the potential of equipment and human resources. Studio Automation can easily be integrated with newsroom systems with the VidiGo Translator.

With Studio Automation users can create rundowns that can be played automatically or manually. It’s a visual representation of scenes, from simple camera shots to multi layered events. It allows the user to prepare shows from their desk, saving time and money, making it the most effective solution for studio automation. “The flexibility, functionality and quality of the VidiGo workflow is brilliant. Truly studio automation in a box.” – A. Josiassen, Engineering and Operations at 538 Group.

VidiGo Visual Radio

Another highlight will be VidiGo Visual Radio, the most advanced software solution in the radio industry. It connects with radio automation systems and fully integrates with the existing radio workflow. Visual Radio creates a fully automated entertaining visual radio experience and engages listeners and viewers through social media.

Audio and video are becoming one, it’s a trend that cannot be stopped.” Kees Toering, Station Manager at Radio 2.

VidiGo Social Media Hub

VidiGo will also officially launch the Social Media Hub that they developed together with major German broadcaster SWR. The objective was to create a plug & play system that could be used without the need the for technical staff. Together with never.no VidiGo offers a complete workflow from data management to bringing dynamic graphics on air. “The Social Media Hub is exactly what we were looking for, a simple and easy plug & play system!”. – Ralf Baron, Production Leader Young Formats SWR

VidiGo Toolbox

Bringing different video codecs to air in high quality can be a huge problem for broadcasters. The best solution is VidiGo Toolbox, that can virtually bring any codec on air using VLC Media Player.
