playoutHD: automation control

To unleash the full power of

the playout system including

command stacking, time-

code synchronization in the

mixer and advanced

transition features like U and

V fades and audio lead lag

the playout system can be

optionally configured with

eyeheights PresTX protocol

interface.

playoutHD systems not only

support automation, they

were designed from the

ground up to provide the

video processing

requirements of todays

modern multi-channel

automation controlled

playout facilities.

playoutHD: example small system

The compact control panel gives the

operator easy access to all the features of

the system in a space saving

interface. Background, Key, text fade and

logo transitions can be operated

independently or in unison either under

manual control via the T-Bar or

automatically via an automatic transition

actioned from the “TAKE” button.
