X-Pert Graphics
X-Pert Graphics is a sophisticated, yet extremely user-friendly on-air CG and graphics manager. It lets you create different static or dynamic objects such as rolls, crawls, multi-layered simultaneous still pictures, analogue and digital clocks, animated logos etc., and save them in projects. Those could easily be used for direct broadcasting or as customised templates for future use. In addition, X-Pert Graphics has a built-in Scheduler which lets you start objects from previously created project(s) at different times.
X-Pert Graphics can run as a standalone solution or run in the background, without its front-end interface. This allows all objects and slide actions to be triggered by a third party OEM software which sends its script commands via network protocol.
The solution is designed to work in sync with the X-Pert Playout. This allows objects in X-Pert Graphics to be started or stopped by using the X-Pert Playout. This is achieved by inserting X-Pert Graphics Net control events in the X-Pert Playout playlist. Control can also be automated using scripts triggered by metadata condition from X-Pert Playout. The playlist metadata value from X-Pert Playout can be sent to the text objects.
X-Pert Graphics provides powerful tools for project preparation and extensive control over on-air graphics. The projects may include:
- Adding basic effects to text, such as a shadow, border, change the color and transparency
- Define the appearance of you objects: define in and out transition, change position, size
- Adding stationary, crawling or rolling text, with either static or dynamic content
- Inserting logos, pictures or animations with a wide range of supported formats
- Items can be played once, run on a loop, etc.
- Items can be scheduled on a daily, weekly or other basis
- No layer limitation
- Use simple macros to automate metadata display direct from the playlist
- Visualize data from external data providers such as: TXT files, XML, HTML files, ODBC, Weather, RSS, Emergency alert systems
- Create animated objects, add banners, chat boxes and so much more
- Use video objects in your project. You can open and use a video clip in your project or directly display a Live video source.
X-Pert Graphics comes in two versions: X-Pert Basic Graphics and X-Pert Advanced Graphics.

latakoo Avid Media Composer Integration
Post-Production Automation
Post-production workflows are notably slow and manual, with files being shipped by hard drive and editors tasked with batch encoding and ingesting files, as well as manually entering custom bin information into their Avid systems. These steps can add days to the production schedule, slowing content creation.
Now, latakoo has created a solution that automates this workflow for teams using Avid Media Composer, shaving days off of the current process.
Automation with MediaComposer
With latakoo, crews on location can send a lightweight proxy file to the editors within minutes of the shoot. With latakoo’s patented compression/upload process, proxy files can be created and quickly uploaded to your private cloud account, for storage and sharing. Metadata associated with the files – such as card number, shoot date, camera ID, project number, or any custom field - can be collected for each group of videos transferred. The metadata form is completely customizable for your project requirements.
After upload, the files are automatically downloaded by latakoo HUB and dropped inside your firewall. All the editors have to do is drag the group of files into the appropriate bin in Avid Media Composer. The files, along with the metadata, automatically populate the Avid bin with the correct information.
And because the proxy files retain their original video ID, relinking the original media is easily achieved.
latakoo is a complete system, so when that first draft is finished, you can easily export it to the cloud for review and approval.
Reclaim Your Time
Imagine saving days off of your current video workflow; automating proxy creation, ingest and metadata into one simple system. It’s possible with latakoo.

- Auto-discovery of streaming devices for fast, simple set-up
- Centralized monitoring of networked streaming devices
- Location status (online/offline) and management features
- View devices, streams and connections from any vantage point (both sending and receiving locations)
Innovative streaming technology
IBM Aspera Streaming meets the challenge of today’s live video opportunities with an innovative transport solution that uses commodity Internet (IP) networks in place of costly legacy satellite delivery and dedicated fiber networks. Aspera’s patented FASP transport technology can provide the consistently exceptional broadcast quality and “zero-delay” experience of traditional satellite backhaul and transmission.
Stream provider and receiver interoperability
The software can transport any live video source available on local multicast, unicast UDP, unicast TCP, or growing file source and will output video to the same options. It provides a uniform lossless, in-order byte stream transport that equally supports constant bit rate and adaptive bit rate formats with performance independent of video encoding details.
Reliability and multi-endpoint capability
One stream source can be sent to multiple destinations concurrently and provides built-in path redundancy. Server hosts are natively clustered. Stream sessions failover automatically connect to another host. Aspera management services automatically reconnect and restart failed streams after a network outage.
Aspera product interoperability and management
Streaming sessions are designed for full interoperability with the Aspera file transfer stack. RESTful APIs allow production workflow and broadcast management systems to manage streams and provide status. Stream sources can include cloud and on premises transcoders and encoders that read from stream and file – or provide stream outputs or growing files.
High quality video delivery
One stream source can be sent to multiple destinations concurrently and provides built-in path redundancy. Server hosts are natively clustered. Stream sessions failover automatically connect to another host. Aspera management services automatically reconnect and restart failed streams after a network outage.
Robust security and authentication
All streaming sessions are encrypted in transit and security authenticated using standard public/private key authentication or Aspera’s multi-tenant access key system. Built-in access control policies can be used to restrict stream providers and consumers by stream protocol, IP address and ports.
