Based on the same switching and video processing used in its renowned KVM and video matrix switches, the 4K Multiviewer offers single-box switching and display selection of up to four single- or dual-head inputs onto two or four 4K displays.

The multiviewer is designed for installations that require simultaneous interactive control of several computers using keyboard and mouse or other HID devices.  Typical applications include broadcast installations and production suites.

• Combined 4:2 KVM switch and flexible multiviewer


• 4:2 KVM switch - 4 inputs, 2 outputs


• 4K60Hz 4:4:4 input and output


• Variety of multiviewing operation modes


• Single-and dual-head operation


• Low latency image transmission


• Combined audio and acoustic alarms


• De-embedding to 8-channel digital and stereo analog audio


• 8-channel digital audio via video interface


• Redundant PSU


• Intuitive shared keyboard and mouse control


• GPIO interface


• USB2.0 support


• Blockable USB2.0 transparent and switching


• SNMP monitoring and reporting


• 1U Rack mount


• Integrates into Draco tera infrastructure

Inputs and outputs are handled at 4K resolution with sub-100ms propagation delay, allowing the Multiviewer to meet the demanding requirements of control and incident rooms in all sectors whilst offering instant interactive control from operators.  Outputs are suitable for multi-screen workstation applications as well as multi-window large screen videowalls.

Internal image processing provides display splitting (dual and quadscreen modes) as well as adaptable scaling, tiling and picture-in-picture display.Video synchronisation between input and output channels eliminates image flickering and allows images of greater than 8K and above to be handled and displayed.

A single keyboard and mouse can be used to interact with all source images displayed on an output screen.  This reduces the desktop clutter and operator confusion associated with multiple keyboards and mice on a desktop.  Simply rolling the mouse over a different source activates that control path.

A simple keyboard GUI control, also derived from the Draco tera KVM control methodology enables user source and preset selection.In addition integrated 8-point GPIO module and IP control enable external switching by network or push-button mechanisms as well as LED indication of active status and sources.

As with all IHSE products, the 4K multiviewer incorporates extensive redundancy and backup features and SNMP options to meet every operational reliability scenario.

Local, cloud and hybrid workflows : Cloud capabilities offer many opportunities and Carrick-Flow was designed for these. Managing activity peak is also one of the key functionalities. A dedicated module allows the detection of future overloads based on deadlines and estimated processing times. Cloud resources can be dynamically activated and will handle some of the tasks without modifying user workflows. Cloud ressources are then automatically disactivated once peak activity is passed.

Virtual farms : If you host heterogeneous dedicated equipment such as several transcoding farms with different brands or version, Carrick-Flow allows pooling and sharing so you can gradually eliminate the silos. Processing more with less resources is one of the key objectives of Carrick-Flow! Mutualizing resources is a worthy goal provided that each user can be guaranteed the resources he needs to manage his emergencies. Carrick-Flow is equipped with a priority engine able to ensure that at all times a launched task is the one with highest priority. To share ressources, you have to adapt to all the players. Carrick-Flow exposes open interfaces at all levels so that each tool can be interfaced at the best level regarding its operationnal process.

Storage: The Carrick-Store module provides an abstraction layer for archiving and unarchiving processes. It provides a unified repository of the storage content within the enterprise of all local and cloud storage. As if an HSM would have become matrix, Carrick-StoR handles files securing, manage their life cycle and their integrity across multiple heterogeneous storage systems. Archiving and redundancy policies may be related to the intrinsic characteristics of the files or be linked with customer-specific editorial metadata. Based on the processing capabilities of Carrick-Flow, it allows limitless indexing and migrating of storage while preserving the bandwidth necessary for the business to go on.

Independancy: Carrick-Flow claims its independence from MAM suppliers and from media manipulation tools: storage, transcoders, transfer… But independence is not an end in itself. It creates value only if it brings real freedom! Carrick-Flow offers you teh freedom: - To fully integrate and exploit the existing resource base - To change tools, to let cohabit different generations of tools, - To try, compare and finally change again…

Scalability: Carrick-Flow has been designed to be virtually insensitive to load peaks. Media manipulation infrastructure may not deal fast enough with everything that needs to be done, but Carrick-Flow will not be affected. It continues to store and unstack the orders, always executing the ones with most priority, without saturating the resources, without being affected by the volume to be processed... In the event of a major infrastructure outage, Carrick-Flow resumes where it stopped, with no loss of performance due to the unusual number of tasks or workflows to relaunch. All Carrick-Flow components are designed to allow easy load distribution without a single SPOF.

SaaS billing: With Carrick-Flow there is no upfront license to buy: you pay when you use it. The subscription is based on the components of your ecosystem. No license and no commitment on volumes. Your needs increase, your costs follow, your needs decrease, your costs adapt.

The consumption of content continues to accelerate on an upwards path and the need to efficiently acquire, manage and deliver across the entire content supply chain becomes ever more compelling.

To achieve optimum performance we need to consider following a digital transformation strategy that builds on the four pillars of the content supply chain:

• Content – in all its forms, digital and physical, video, audio, graphics, captions, subtitles, scripts and documents, as well as all the associated and additional metadata


• Workflow – Nothing happens to content without direction, as simple or complex as needed. Business processes, logic and decisions must be performed to create cohesive and efficient workflows, taking into account both manual, and the increasing amount of automated tasks


• Resources – Workflows don’t happen without somebody or something managing and orchestrating them, whether it be a person and/or technology


• Analytics – How do you know how well your operation is running and that you’ve implemented efficient working practices? Analytics. Being able to measure and manage the business across the above 3 pillars enables an organisation to automate elasticity in resource utilisation, to understand the metrics of its operation, how efficient they are and ultimately how the bottom line is affected by them.

Undertaking a strategy that creates tight integration of all 4 pillars will deliver significant benefits to the organisation. Maximising the benefit requires the implementation of an agile and flexible content supply chain solution, so implementing a business solution, such as Mediaflex-UMS (Unified Media Services), that embraces all 4 pillars will ultimately lead to a significantly more efficient operation.

From its concept, Mediaflex-UMS has been designed to integrate these 4 pillars and place clients in control of their content, metadata and the business processes across their content supply chains. Equally as important, it was designed to place our customers in control of the Mediaflex-UMS platform.

So often organisations find out the hard way that the implementation of a new system requires them to go back to the vendor and/or rely on technology experts to modify the code to cater for new business processes, or modify existing ones, as the business changes. This often leads to the question “Do I build or buy?”.

With Mediaflex-UMS you get the best of both worlds: buying a system that allows authorised personnel to use the tool-sets built into the system to design, modify and configure it to meet the ever-changing demands of the business as the consumption of media continues to change.

Ateliere Connect is a fully cloud-native platform for content servicing that centralizes geographically-distributed workflows, allowing content owners full control and visibility. It’s designed to operate natively in the cloud to scale up and down automatically depending on volumes and urgency. With Connect, content owners can efficiently manage and store assets, create versions, and deliver content to countless broadcast endpoints from one unified platform. Our proprietary parallel-scaling technology, made possible by the cloud, enables efficient and high-quality production workflows.

Connect is fully provisioned to manage workflows for over 100 platforms, which means every step can be handled within our platform, from ingest to delivery. End-to-end supply chain workflows can be completely automated with AI-driven microservices within Connect.

FrameDNA™ is an AI image recognition tool within Connect that scans multiple versions of content, identifies the frames that are similar and different, and automatically deduplicates the versions, allowing users to consolidate multiple versions into lightweight, nimble IMF packages. By running their content libraries through FrameDNA, companies have been able to reduce their overall storage footprints by an average of 70%. In addition, their titles are now ready to be rendered out in any localized or conformed version quickly and efficiently for global distribution to any platform endpoint.

FrameDNA works in tandem with Deep Analysis, a media probing tool within Connect that rapidly analyzes video files, identifies various elements, including scene changes, color bars, blacks, texted scenes, slates, and essences, and displays them on a graphical timeline view without the user having to watch the file back. For a 54-minute 2K HD ProRes show, this process happens in about 10 mins--that's a time savings of 80%. Deep Analysis can also detect when subtitles overlap with on-screen text. The push to bring legacy libraries into global streaming services requires language/caption support in 26+ versions. All major streaming services immediately reject a show if there’s an issue with caption/texted scene overlap. The quality assurance task once only performed by humans is now fully automated with Deep Analysis. It can detect instances of timed text/texted scene overlap with around 40% more accuracy and 80% faster than manual QC methods.

Connect affords studios and post houses maximum flexibility under their control. Companies can choose the model that works for them--SaaS or PaaS-- and use our modular framework to select only the components of the platform that they need. They don't have to build an entirely new supply chain from scratch to take advantage of the benefits. Connect seamlessly integrates with existing partners and systems via a fully accessible API.
