IBC 2016: Snell Advanced Media (SAM) has introduced the LiveTouch 4K highlights and replay system at IBC.

The LiveTouch panel, which includes a touch screen, is integrated with SAM editors, which the company said would enable “instant collaboration between replay and production”. 

Inter-server streaming allows multiple servers to act as a single production pool, giving users “instant, transparent” access to recordings and highlights on a network. 

Neil Maycock, EVP and general manager, Media Software Solutions, at SAM, said: “LiveTouch 4K is a fantastic asset to studio and sports broadcasters looking to make the most out of 4K.

“Not only can LiveTouch accommodate familiar HD workflows in 4K, it can also scale to build bigger 4K systems than broadcasters have ever seen before.

“We listened to customers to ensure common operation is effortless while ensuring advanced features are accessible and easy to execute.

“With that in mind, the product’s interface is clean and easy to use, but also caters for even the most advanced user.”
