Matrox Confirms KOBA 2016 Display

Matrox Video has announced that it will demonstrate its new Monarch LCS lecture capture appliance, the Monarch HD, Monarch HDX and VS4Recorder Pro at KOBA 2016, 24 to 27 May.

The Matrox Monarch LCS is a lecture capture appliance that accepts video from any SDI or HDMI camera and presentation content over HDMI from computers. The inputs can be encoded independently and in sync for use with the latest multi-stream video players. Alternatively, the inputs can be combined prior to encoding in a variety of production layouts, including picture-in-picture and side-by-side, for use with standard video players. IT administrators will find Monarch LCS easy to set up and integrate into video management systems such as Opencast and Kaltura, as well as learning management systems like Moodle.

For streaming purposes, the encoders use either RTMP or RTSP protocol to deliver live streams to local media servers or cloud-based CDNs. In recording applications, the encoders write MP4 or MOV files directly to network-mapped drives, eliminating the need for post-lecture file transfer, or alternatively to local USB drives or SD cards. Monarch LCS comes complete with a set of HTTP-based control APIs to create customised user interfaces.

The VS4Recorder Pro is designed for use with Matrox VS4 quad HD capture cards. Each VS4Recorder Pro system frame-accurately captures up to four video and audio inputs to create files for use with popular editing apps from Adobe, Apple and Avid and for archiving. H.264 is provided in either MOV or MP4 wrappers. AVI files can be created using the Matrox MPEG 2 I-Frame codec. MOV QuickTime files can be created using DV, DVCPRO, DVCPRO50 and DVCPRO HD.

VS4Recorder Pro also functions as a multiviewer, offering high video quality even when monitoring interlaced sources on progressive computer monitors. VS4-based systems are also suited for multi-camera live production streaming with Telestream Wirecast for Windows.

Matrox Video will appear at representative Taenam DVI Co., Ltd's booth C221 at KOBA 2016.
