Mobile TV Groups 39 FLEX 4K mobile unit will now benefit from the flexibility of three newly installed XT4K live production servers.
This integration means that Mobile TV Group is now not only able to ingest 4K feeds, but also a 10-bit codec that enables support for productions using High Dynamic Range (HDR) as well as the two sample interleave format for QUAD-SDI. And in case it becomes necessary, the server has expanded support for 12G-SDI and native IP connectivity. Moreover, Mobile TV Group can now easily switch from a total of 12 UHD-4K channels to over 30 Full-HD 1080p channels whenever needed.
The 4K programming that our 39 Flex truck produces is of the highest quality. As higher resolutions continue to become the standard, adding HDR functionality to the mobile unit with EVS servers means our clients can see even better, richer images in their live productions, said Philip Garvin, president and founder of Mobile TV Group.
39 FLEX was most recently deployed to Carmel-by-the-Sea in California for the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro Am. There were three LSM operators for the 4K production, all running 2in 2out in XAVC-Intra class 300 codec at 600 Mbps. The operators used EVS XNet network to transfer clips and exchange content between the three servers. Operators could work fast and reliably, just as if they were working on an HD production and no extra training or information was needed.
The 39 FLEX 4K mobile unit, which will be on display at the Las Vegas Convention Center during NAB, has already been used for covering significant events in UHD-4K across the United States.
