Functions and features of the system

The main purpose of the system is to provide the operator with all the tools necessary to produce a live program. Projects of this type require simultaneous actions on multiple image sources. To make this possible, the Reckeen 3D Studio system enables receiving external signal sources connected to the input card. Additionally, it generates multiple signal sources from files on the hard drive replayed by the system players.

Available system inputs:

• cameras – 4 in Full HD mode
• media (movies) – two clips at the same time,
• still images (bitmaps, panels) – two at a time,
• text – two text compositions at the same time.
• Sound – one clip from file and sound from Microphone
• Sound – one clip from file
• Two analog inputs and one microphone in front panel.

The system takes a ‘live’ image from the camera. In the case of media, some additional functions are available:

• Media tray is an easy-to-use interface that brings all the media needed for broadcasting the program together in one place
• You can transfer media from the tray to the players or use them during the broadcast and as a source in virtual 3D studios
• The system has 7 trays for different types of media: video, still images, still text and audio files
• There is a possibility to insert a logo, text or animation to the scene thanks to 2 x DSK function and triggers option.

It not only supports the media, but also offers:

• Camera shots editor for programming virtual camera movements and transitions within each 3D studio
• Up to 15 shots in trackless mode for each virtual camera
• 30 free 3D set designs added to the system
• Virtual 3D studio editor
• Eye-catching news tickers and captions created in STILL Editor or loaded from external files.
• Wizard editor – Create your own 3D studio
• LITE Production – launch Reckeen Lite

Presenting previews of the media being played.
There are the following previews available:

• preview from four cameras,
• media preview (two at the same time),
• still images preview (two at the same time),
• texts preview (two at the same time).

There are also broadcasting previews:

• PREVIEW – presenting the element prepared for broadcast,
• PROGRAM – presenting the signal currently being broadcast (system output),
• 4 virtual cameras V/C previews.

Additionally, the system enables:

• showing previews on multiple monitors. (If the monitors are connected to the workstation, it is possible to obtain a different previews’ configuration on up to three monitors.)
