RouteMaster Lite
RouteMaster Lite brings familiar video routing capabilities to Newtek’s NDI® video. Based on our proven RouteMaster system, it gives operators a range of familiar control interfaces for controlling video switching.
Switching is suitable for all live, on-air applications, making RouteMaster Lite ideal for fast manual intervention.
No video streams are passed through the router system, instead traffic is redirected at the network level. This means only minimal bandwidth and processor requirements are needed, regardless of the number of video streams and resolution. There’s also no additional video delay through the system. Additionally, RouteMaster Lite does not become a central point of failure: If the router system fails for any reason, video continues to flow from sources to destinations uninterrupted.
RouteMaster Lite is ideal for OB and production environments, supporting up to 20 sources and 20 destinations. For larger systems with more complex requirements, the same NDI switching technology is available in the full-featured RouteMaster system.
The built-in GUI is ideal for preset and take switching, showing resizeable video previews and audio metering of the current video and the chosen source.
External Control
While control from the built-in GUI is fast and easy, it’s not ideal for all situations. Therefore RouteMaster lite supports external control from:
- Web Panels served by the integrated web server
- Familiar hardware panels like Blackmagic Design Smart Control
- Or, third-party software which uses the Blackmagic VideoHub protocol
You can use all these control methods simultaneously, with router status immediately visible to all users.

RouteMaster
RouteMaster uses Rascular’s proven router control and emulation technology to form a powerful yet flexible router control system. Built on tried and tested software modules, RouteMaster can be used with a wide range of video and audio routers from all major manufacturers.
It’s equally suitable for new router installations or increasing the capabilities – and lifetime – of existing systems. You can add third-party hardware panels to existing systems, add IP connectivity to older serial routers, or simply increase the number of control ports available.
The integrated web server means operators can control routers from any web browser, using custom control panels built with Helm Designer. And because it’s built on HTML5 standards, there’s no need for browser plugins.
DVG (Digital Video Gateway)
It’s the first all-in-one gateway product enabling smooth connectivity between legacy and IP interfaces, video delivery over IP protocols (DVP, RIST, ZiXi, SRT, and SMPTE 2022-1), and a variety of media streaming protocols MPEG TS, RTMP, HLS, and DASH. Clients can use DVG to connect to a service in AWS over RIST or to service in Microsoft Azure over SRT or they can leverage DVG to connect between services using different video streaming or delivery protocols.
The DVG offers the six essential ingredients for reliable broadcast over IP ecosystems: Quality, Reliability, Connectivity, Security, Operational Efficiency, Versatility, and Future Proof. It can run on any hardware platform in a Doker container, as a virtual machine, or a downloadable ISO.
Helm
Here at Rascular we have Helm, a solution that’s been deployed by facilities around the world to address multiple control workflow requirements across Master Control and beyond.
Helm is a PC-based application that allows users and systems integrators to design and build customised control panels that, in their simplest form, sit alongside automation and provide manual control of a single device. For example, this could be a master control switcher, with the user panel exposing only those controls needed for monitoring and manual intervention. In more complex deployments, Helm is used to provide manual, supervisory override capabilities in automated, multi-device (branding engine, multi-viewer, router, video server and modular gear), multi-channel, HD/SD environments with pods of channels. This includes by some of the world’s largest playout companies.
The scalability of Helm makes it a go-to solution for companies wishing to invest in future-proof technology.
