Viele Angaben leider nur in Englisch. Im Broadcast und Videotechnikbereich ist die Sprache leider immer noch Englisch.

Designed for developers:
ViewCast Niagara SCX streaming media management software is a great way for your customers to manage and direct live video broadcasting over the Internet and to mobile devices. But for those of you who want to develop your own unique user experience, or add streaming media features to your existing video application, your solution has arrived!

With the Niagara SCX Web Services SDK, you can harness all of the power of the Niagara SCX "engine" into your own software application -- without the expense and development time of a roll-your-own solution. The Niagara SCX SDK provides you with a well-defined suite of tools and example applets to simplify the creation, delivery and management of compressed audio and video media for today's growing multimedia-rich market.

With little additional development, your favorite compression formats - Windows Media® (Silverlight® compatible), SMPTE VC-1, RealVideo® and Adobe® Flash® H.264 video, MPEG-4, H.263 and H.264, singly or in combination - can be made available to your users quickly and easily.

Niagara SCX Web services interface:
Niagara SCX control and management software features are accessed via Microsoft's Web Services Description Language (WDSL), which means you use ordinary XML-based methods to take full control of the Niagara SCX engine.

You can add, remove, start, stop and configure exactly what you need to create the right content for your specific audience and application. The Web Services engine is pre-installed on your ViewCast system so you are ready to take complete control of the capture and compression experience.

Applications you can explore:
•Broadcast Automation - Add multiple streaming media formats to your existing Broadcast Automation software to simulcast to
Internet viewers and to mobile devices:
•Traffic Camera Capture and Streaming - Add streaming media control to the software that manages your traffic cameras.
Quickly and easily include a new class of at-home and mobile users:
•Medical Records / Medical Collaboration - Capture, save and stream video from medical imaging devices to simplify recordkeeping or to aid in collaboration.
•Distance Learning - Capture and stream live classroom video under the control of classroom presentation software.

Take your production from ordinary to extraordinary
If controlling the encoding experience your way isn't enough, we offer even more options to create just the right content and user experience at the Osprey capture device level. You can specify and directly interact with the capture hardware to control important facets, such as:

•Video input and output reference size
•Cropping
•Horizontal and vertical delay
•Color space
•Logo/watermarking placement and transparency
•Closed caption string extraction
•Time code extraction
•Audio pre-scaling
