Updated codecs, Edit-While-Record, and RESTful API in IngeSTore version 1.1.2

North Melbourne, Australia, August 6, 2019 – Bluefish444, manufacturer of the professional video industry’s highest-quality uncompressed UltraHD SDI, ASI, Video Over IP & HDMI I/O cards and mini converters, has released IngeSTore version 1.1.2. This free update of IngeSTore adds support for new codecs, Edit-While-Record workflows and a REST API.

Bluefish444 have developed IngeSTore software as a complementary multi-channel ingest tool enabling Bluefish444 hardware to capture multiple independent format SDI sources simultaneously.

In IngeSTore 1.1.2, Bluefish444 has expanded codec support to include the popular formats OP1A MPEG-2 and DNxHD within the BlueCodecPack licence. Edit-While-Record workflows are supported through both industry standard growing files and through Bluefish444’s BlueRT plug-in for Adobe® Premiere® Pro and Avid® Media Composer®. BlueRT allows Adobe and Avid NLE’s to access media files as they are still being recorded by IngeSTore multi-channel capture software, increasing production efficiency via immediate access to recorded media during live workflows.

The IngeSTore REST API provides access to all the features of IngeSTore software from a remote networked device using an easy to use JSON interface. The API supports remote control of IngeSTore over IP networks and the customisation of functionality, and offering for the first time, the custom integration potential of IngeSTore systems.

“Our customers have been providing great feedback on the IngeSTore solutions and this update provides a number of significant improvements and features,” comments Tom Lithgow, product manager at Bluefish444. “The REST API, codec updates and Edit-While-Record workflows provide a great base for IngeSTore integrations, and has laid the groundwork for Bluefish444 to provide further significant updates soon.”

IngeSTore version 1.1.2 is now available for download from the Bluefish444 website at bluefish444.com/support/downloads/details/4/ingestore-software.html. Bluefish444 will be demonstrating the latest version of IngeSTore at IBC Show 2019 on stand 7.B44, or find out more at bluefish444.com/ingestore.
