Published: March 6th 2024

Here’s the replay of Tachyon LIVE & cloudSwXtch: Expanding Live Broadcast Workflows in the Cloud, with Lance Maurer, Cinnafilm’s CEO & Founder, Dom Jackson, Cinnafilm’s VP of Products & Services, swXtch.io’s Geeter Kyrazis, Chief Strategy Officer, and Patrick McCoy, Head of Product.

Watch the replay to:

  • Get a behind-the-scenes look at how top broadcasters can exploit the power and flexibility of Cinnafilm’s Tachyon LIVE software for high-quality real-time standards conversions.
  • Hear from swXtch.io’s Geeter Kyrazis, Chief Strategy Officer, and Patrick McCoy, Head of Product.
  • Get advance info on another new Cinnafilm product, IPx LIVE – the real-time IP conversion tool capable of conversions between any combination of NDI, SRT, and SMPTE 2110.

The session is all about how live event broadcasters are migrating to cloud-based operations and gets into the specific network features that are required by the demanding, high-throughput workflows of live broadcasts. 

The dynamic nature of news coverage is a prime example of how traditional broadcast methods are becoming obsolete in the face of unpredictable events. For instance, when a significant event like a coup unfolds, the ability to broadcast live footage doesn’t adhere to any set schedule. The presence of an individual with a cellphone capable of transmitting over 5G, or a professional camera crew equipped with advanced technology such as Starlink or a bonded 5G backpack, becomes crucial. These on-the-ground reporters can send out live feeds, such as SRT or NDI feeds, enabling the immediate sharing of the story with a global audience. 

In this scenario, you need to spin up a system in seconds or minutes, rather than spending a bunch of time connecting up hardware boxes… Tachyon LIVE & cloudSwXtch give you that capability.

News coverage demonstrates the necessity for media outlets to have the capacity to rapidly deploy systems, within seconds or minutes, to broadcast these stories. The same urgency and needs are there for sports and events. 

Working together, Cinnafilm and swXtch.io have developed unmatched solutions for the challenging conversion requirements of broadcasters delivering live content worldwide.

swXtch.io is a subsidiary of technology company IEX Group Inc. Their innovative cloudSwXtch solution brings high-performance network features to cloud applications for broadcasting and unlocks missing network features that are required by the demanding, high-throughput workflows of live broadcasts.
