Publication number: 20240137597Abstract: Various embodiments are described herein for systems and methods that can be used to operate a media transmission network. In at least one embodiment, the media transmission network comprises a plurality of media processing devices configured to receive and process media streams based on control data. The media transmission network also comprises a controller coupled to the plurality of media processing devices and configured to generate a control signal for some or all of the media processing devices in the network. The controller is configured to determine the timing at which to transmit the control signal to a respective media processing device in order for the instructions in the control signal to be executed at the same time as the media data is received. The controller determines the transmission timing of each control signal by determining the latencies and delays of the network and the devices, such as, for example, network latency, processing delay, and/or control delay.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 3, 2024Publication date: April 25, 2024Applicant: Evertz Microsystems Ltd.Inventors: Eric Fankhauser, Rakesh Patel, Vince Silvestri

Publication number: 20240112704Abstract: The various embodiments disclosed herein relate to systems and methods for generating a derived media clip corresponding to a live event. In particular, the system comprises a processor configured to receive a plurality of content streams corresponding to the live event, each content stream corresponding to a content source. The processor is further configured to generate an annotated timeline for one or more of the plurality of content streams and receive a first user input requesting the derived media clip. The processor is then configured to generate the derived media clip based on the user input and the annotated timeline.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 10, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Applicant: Evertz Microsystems Ltd.Inventors: Vince Silvestri, Stephen Michael D'Angelo
