ROSS Kiva+ Premium Presentation Video Server
Professional Quality
For real-time record and play operations, the high-performance Kiva+ Presentation video server utilizes high-quality AVC-Intra video hardware.
When AVC-Intra Class 100 media files are imported into Kiva+, no media file transcoding is involved so they are imported in the shortest amount of time, and with professional-level image quality. Import speeds can range from 5X up to 40X real-time when 10-gigabit data connections are used in conjunction with external storage devices that incorporate similar, extremely high-speed technology such as storage devices featuring modern NVMe SSD technology.
Kiva+ can also easily ingest media files created with just about any other video codec. These files will be cleanly transcoded into the AVC-Intra codec upon import into Kiva+.

Description
Channel Pairs
Kiva+ is available in three different “channel pair” models, so you can choose the option that best fits your production needs and budget.
In the Kiva+ One-Channel model, there is one base-band video+audio recording input, one Video+Key Preview Player output, and one Video+Key Program Player output. The Kiva+ Two-Channel model doubles these video channel resources, and the Kiva+ Three-Channel model triples them.
Are you on a limited budget or have smaller-scale productions and not yet ready for the Kiva+ Two or Three-Channel models? Start with the One-Channel model and then upgrade to the Kiva+ Two-or Three-Channel model when your budget permits or when your production needs change. Upgrading is a simple as plugging in one or two PCIe video boards into the Kiva+ server chassis.

This dramatically simplifies clip management, import/export, and live playout control.Simple File ManagementIntegrated media file import and export tools dramatically streamline file-based workflows. Files are automatically matched to production format on import and the export process features a variety of user-defined parameters.Multi-Server NetworkingRemote clip content can be played as stand-alone clips, or as clip content within a Playlist for immediate playout.Wide-Ranging ControlAll Tria production servers support Ross Video DashBoard control from external computers via Ethernet. DashBoard permits operators to create customized user interfaces, to control all video channels across any number of Tria production servers connected to your local area network.Media Import & ExportA wide variety of the most popular self-contained media files with MXF and MOV wrappers can be imported and exported via the built-in USB-2, USB-3, Gigabit (for Tria Express Duet and 10-Gigabit (for Tria+ and Tria+UHD) Ethernet ports. | TSS-2470II Variable Time Delay![]()
A Global Standard for Time Shifting has some new tricksThe TSS-2470II is 360 Systems’ latest model of Broadcast Time Delay, bringing the ability to adjust the delay setting on-the-fly without loss of any currently recorded time. This gives it the flexibility to handle applications for Mountain Minute commercial insertion, schedule alterations and disaster recovery as well as simple set-and-forget time zone shifting. The TSS-2470II offers the same basic features and built in reliability as the standard TSS-2470. With HD and SD compatibility, frame accurate delay, RAID 5 storage, redundant power and cooling and a space saving 1U chassis, the TSS-2470 maintains the quality and reliability customers expect from 360 Systems. The simple user interface makes adjusting and readjusting the delay time easy. Establish an initial delay time in the primary delay window, then utilizing any of the four preset buttons or transport controls, change the delay as needed. Time zone differences can be easily compensated for without the need for manual recording and rebroadcasting. Simply enter the desired delay time and click run or reset the delay time without having to restart the delay. The input feed is automatically delayed the set amount of time without any further user inputs required. The TSS-2470II supports all broadcast formats – 720p, 1080i and NTSC/PAL at frame rates of 29.97/59.94 or 25/50 Hz. Because the TSS-2470II transports high-value program content, it employs a four-drive, RAID 5 disk array for enhanced reliability. Drives and power supplies are hot swappable allowing the system to continue running without downtime. With its 1U form factor, power consumption is low, and forced-air cooling extends component life and reliability. The TSS-2470II can also be controlled remotely with our Remote Workstation software or with the use of GPIO triggers. Other features include high-quality 10 bit video with up to 16 channels of embedded audio and support for closed captions and other VANC data. A live feed monitor output and frame accurate delay from 30 seconds to 24 hours or more, round out an excellent standard feature set. | EVS introduces XS-NEO®, the new studio server which provides flexible software-based workflows. Hosted on high-performing and compact EVS PMR processing module, the software-defined server ingests multiple formats and codecs concurrently, supported over swappable SDI or IP connectivity. XS-NEO® is the ultimate video server that delivers EVS-built reliability, combined with unequalled flexibility and scalability for your future requirements.
