Similar to a tablet, the 14-inch touch panel allows easy and intuitive access to switcher functions.
SHOWCAST 100 KIT is an all-in-one solution for producing full HD virtual multi-camera video using a single 4K camera.
SHOWCAST 100 KIT uses a large touch screen for operation using similar gestures used on any tablet or phone. By pinching and swiping, you control up to 4 cutouts of a 4K image and as if the footages comes from 4 different cameras. Use hardware control to precisely position the cutouts like a regular PTZ camera.

PTC-280 is a perfect companion for the SHOWCAST 100. 4K cameras are widely available and content online doesn’t require the full 4K resolution for streamed content. A single 4K camera can be utilized to obtain 4 cut outs or regions of interest.
The SHOWCAST 100 is perfect for interview application with small panels or smaller houses of worship.
Users can easily control the video cutout sources by using the touch screen and well known gestures such as pinching and swiping. The joystick, zoom knob and hardware buttons can also be used alternatively.
Virtual buttons on the large touch screen panel makes it easy for operating the switcher as well as setting up presets for cameras.
Operating the ShowCast 100 is as easy as using a tablet. Produce professional video productions without having a huge learning curve on how to use and operate a switcher.
Even though ShowCast 100 can control only three PTZ cameras, you can save up to four presets per camera, giving you a total of 12 different angles for your production. The 12 memory presets allow the director to instantaneously switch between different camera angles on ShowCast 100 by pushing corresponding preset buttons.
Many broadcasters have experienced pixelated video during live streaming, often due to unstable network environments caused by bandwidth volatility and packet loss. Streaming RTMP over unreliable networks can cause issues. With dvCloud, you can now replace the RTMP protocol with SRT, which will fix most streaming issues you may have. SRT is better than RTMP because it handles problematic networks more efficiently. As a result, your viewers will experience a better stream, with less buffering and pixelization.

dvCloud Professional (please refer to www.dvcloud.tv for more info) can stream to 25 platforms simultaneously. It can stream to either different platforms or different channels of the same platform. Thus, even if your local network bandwidth is limited, you can still stream to multiple platforms at the same time with dvCloud.
The ShowCast 100's built-in camera control functions allow you to simultaneously control three PTZ cameras. You can directly save the lens position presets, pan and tilt positions in real time and zoom in and out of a shot. In addition, you can adjust the white balance, iris and mirror mode of each camera.
