“SlingStudio continues to give content creators more power in
producing high-quality productions with efficiency, flexibility and
ease of use,” said Paddy Rao, senior vice president of product
development at Sling Media. “With the newest features, users have
greater editing control to strengthen the visual and audio
production quality of their content.”
New SlingStudio features
The following new features will provide SlingStudio users
enhanced capabilities in multi-camera production:
4K video support: Livestream a
production in HD and seamlessly convert to camera’s native 4K
resolution in post-production, using Adobe® Premiere® Pro CC and
Apple Final Cut Pro® X. All effects, transitions and cuts from the
SlingStudio Console app will be automatically retained, saving
hours of re-editing.
Live production enhancements:
Upgrades to live production capabilities include pre-existing video
import and custom graphic insertion. Pre-existing video import
enables users to easily access pre-recorded video as a source
inside the SlingStudio Console app, instead of a separate computer
or video player that occupies one of SlingStudio’s four switchable
video sources. This makes it easier for content producers to
incorporate pre-recorded video into live broadcasts in real
time.
Custom graphic insertion allows users to insert, resize and
change the transparency of custom JPG and PNG graphics – including
logos, lower-thirds, profile picture, ads and background images –
and overlay them on a live program feed. Images can be imported
from SD cards and USB drives and saved within the Console app for
later use to create streamlined, high-quality visual edits.
Custom RTMP for live broadcasting:
Users can expand their live-switched program output beyond Facebook
and YouTube to custom destinations that support RTMP (Real-Time
Messaging Protocol), such as Twitch, Twitter/Periscope, Livestream
and Ustream. Custom RTMP also allows users to increase the
visibility of their live programs by simultaneously streaming
footage to multiple sites via RTMP-supported services like
Restream.io.
Custom graphic insertion and custom RTMP for live broadcasting
are now available to users. 4K video support will be available to
Mac users in November, with Windows compatibility to follow in
coming weeks. Pre-existing video import will also roll out in
November.
