XT[2] Package 9.00

XT[2] This section presents the latest software upgrades

XT[2] System and Software
Software Ref.: Multicam 09.00.74


XT[2] Multicam 9
is the 1st software version to be compatible only with XT[2] servers because of a structural change in both the software and the recorded files. Most of the new features included within Multicam 9 are for set-up and monitoring but there are a few very worthwhile operational enhancements such as:

  • New Date and Timecode Management – Two timecode sources can now be recorded per input and a user can choose which TC source to be displayed and also be searched on.
  • Playback of growing clips - Clips can now be played while they are being created, moved, copied, or restored.
  • Gigabit connection - clips can be transferred between systems using the gigabit connection.
  • Apple ProRes 422 and Apple ProRes 422 HQ codec - Allows direct transfer of native files.

    IPDirector

     is  an  integrated suite of software allowing to control the XT[2] production servers in any type of production environment.

It can perform all the functionality of the dedicated remote panel, but offers the user a friendly Windows based graphical user interface.

    IPDirector’s new features include:

    • the Play-list Editor for advanced Play-lists creation
    • new tabs in the Control Panel:
      • for rapid simple clip-list build
