Barco Announces New Software for Digital Lighting Family
Barco has announced that new software is now available for the High End Systems Digital Lighting family, including the DL.3 Digital Light and the Axon media server.
The v1.5 software release expands feature functionality and provides a host of improvements and updates. Major features include frame blending for smooth, slow motion playback, and the expansion of Collage Generator capability, which allows users to create a setup that is 16 fixtures wide by eight fixtures high. A new segmented collage feature enables advanced users to pre-slice their content in order to create large collages with very high overall resolutions.
Another new feature is automatic content encoding validation. This unique process scans content as it is being loaded into the system, in order to ensure correct encoding, trouble-free playback, and the elimination of performance issues that might result from encoding errors.
Other features include new graphic effects, PAL support for the SDI input, plus support for HD-SDI cards in the Axon media server. In addition, the Content Management Application (CMA) now displays more detailed data, such as movie length, resolution, frame rate and frame count.
"Version 1.5 is an exciting release that brings a number of often-requested and powerful features to our users," notes Chris Colpaert, VP of Creative Lighting. "These features open even more creative possibilities for the product family and its ease of use. Our team is already hard at work on our next major release which will bring even more exciting capabilities to the product line."
