Vista IP Multiviewer

Innovative Monitoring IP Multiviewer

Dense multi-CODEC support

Deployable on standard compute

Economical SaaS offering

Vista IP Multiviewer is a software tool designed for broadcast contribution and distribution monitoring of compressed transport stream flows. Leveraging standard compute with high performance networking, the Vista application ingests transport flows via UDP, RTP and SRT. Video CODEC support includes JXS, HEVC, AVC and MPEG 2 compressed flows. Each flow is decoded, scaled and positioned in a Region on the UHD display Canvas. In addition to the UHD HDMI output, the UHD Canvas is efficiently HEVC encoded at full frame size and frame rate for streaming the Canvas with audio for remote or local viewing. Vista decodes compressed audio with support for raw SMPTE 302M PCM audio flows too. VISTA displays accurate dBFS bars for each region. Audio capacity includes 16 channels per Region with user routing and control for pair monitoring via the local HDMI interface and the encoded transport stream of the Canvas.
