BCTV Features

Above: the special keyboard and touch-screen monitor that both control BCTV's new Broadcast Pix studio switcher.
(Branford, CT) A quick, behind-the-scenes tour of BCTV features our computer-based Broadcast Pix studio control room switcher. Features include the ability to load pre-recorded segments (also known as "B-roll") onto the actual switcher for insertion during the taping of a program. The switcher also has a self-contained Inscriber Character generator built-in to the unit itself. Another unique feature is the "virtual monitor" set-up. Instead of using multiple, heat-generating individual monitors, the Broadcast Pix generates "virtual" monitors and displays them on BCTV's new 47" flat-panel wide-screen monitor. Those "virtual" monitors may be resized and moved anywhere on the 47" screen.
Stop by and see the new Broadcast Pix at BCTV soon!
