TvONE And Matrox Video Partner On AV-Over-IP

tvONE has announced a strategic partnership with Matrox Video to combine its CALICO PRO video processor with Matrox's ConvertIP range of encoders, decoders and converters.

The companies say the integration connects CALICO PRO to SMPTE ST 2110 and IPMX infrastructures, supporting compressed and uncompressed workflows in settings including broadcast, live events, control rooms and experiential installations. CALICO PRO has a 66-million-pixel engine, while Matrox Video contributes its FPGA core.

According to tvONE, ST 2110 support enables CALICO PRO to receive uncompressed, low-latency video streams and operate within broadcast-grade IP networks. It says users can route content across fibre networks and use the processor as a central hub in distributed systems. IPMX support also allows it to be used in hybrid professional AV and broadcast workflows.

"This is the kind of innovation that moves the needle," said Bob Bonniol, Emmy Award-winning director of innovation for video at ACT Entertainment. "tvONE and Matrox Video are not just connecting devices, they are connecting creative potential. CALICO PRO's processing power paired with ConvertIP's ST 2110 agility gives designers and technologists the tools to build immersive, scalable systems that were previously out of reach."

"Together, tvONE and Matrox Video deliver AV-over-IP without compromise. Signal in. Brilliance out," said Sam Recine, vice-president of strategic partnerships at Matrox Video. "When manufacturers like tvONE add ST 2110 support to products like CALICO PRO, they empower customers to build scalable, interoperable, and latency-free systems that meet the demands of modern AV and broadcast environments."

Matrox Video makes products for the broadcast and media, live entertainment and AV/IT markets. Its range includes encoders, decoders, converters, KVM extenders and video wall controllers, and the company supports open industry standards for interoperability.
