Third-party Integration Avid
Due to the EVS XT/XS series servers’ native support of several SD/HD AVID codecs, any media can be easily transferred or streamed onto Avid editing stations. Since there is no additional encoding/decoding process, the media exchange between EVS and Avid can be managed at a high rate of speed while maintaining the recordings original quality. This allows AVID editors to get rid of transcoding process, gain time and focus on their core activity.
The way to link the EVS servers and Avid craft editing applications is to send media through EVS XTAccess or XFile.
Since the servers natively support natively AVID codecs, clipped files can be directly transferred to the Avid production environment at high speed, without the need for additional encoding or decoding. Also, EVS IPDirector and streaming modules allow users to instantly stream content recorded on EVS servers to any Avid station through the network while recording is still in progress. The reverse process allows craft-edited packages prepared in Avid post-production suites to be sent to EVS XT3 or XS servers for immediate playout. These packages can be played out even while the media is still being transferred.
