New IngeSTore version 1.1, 4K SDI to NDI, and Advanced 4K HDR support

Melbourne, Australia, 13 July, 2017 – Bluefish444, manufacturer of the industry’s highest-quality uncompressed 4K/2K/HD/SD SDI video cards, will be demonstrating their new IngeSTore version 1.1, advanced 4K HDR support, and 4K SDI to NDI compatibility with NewTek Connect Pro.

Bluefish444 released the latest version of their IngeSTore software earlier in the year, and will be demonstrating HD capture using a Sony SDI video camera. IngeSTore is Bluefish444’s free multi-channel capture software compatible with all Bluefish444 video cards. It captures multiple simultaneous channels of 3G/HD/SD-SDI to popular media files for archive, edit, encoding or analysis. This free update to IngeSTore software adds important new functionality including additional CODEC upgrade options, “Edit-While-Record” functionality, and additional support for shared storage, including AVID shared storage.

Bluefish444 will also be showing their integrations with Adobe® Premiere® Pro CC and Avid® Media Composer®. Bluefish444 has advanced 4K HDR support with the latest versions of both of these video tools, and will be demonstrating this using their Epoch | 4K Supernova S+ video card with a Sony PVM-X550 SDI monitor.

Bluefish444 have also partnered with Blonde Robot for a 4K SDI to NDI demonstration utilising an Epoch | 4K Supernova S+ video card and NewTek’s Connect Pro software. The collaboration between Bluefish444 and NewTek enables input and output of SDI video signals up to 4K 60p as part of an NDI-based IP workflow. This allows Bluefish444 installations globally to implement interconnected, Ultra HD production workflows comprised of SDI and IP-based technologies.
