Nevion, a Sony Group Company and award-winning provider of virtualized media production solutions, announced today that it is adding up/down/cross conversion (UDC) capabilities to its flagship software-defined media node, Virtuoso. The media function software provides low latency, native-IP, and high-quality video conversion for live broadcast and media production applications, including remote and distributed production.
Modern live media production involves video sources, as well as destinations, in a variety of formats that need to be handled simultaneously, for example 720p, 1080i, 1080p, UHD, SDR or HDR. This creates the need for conversion between formats throughout the production workflow.
