Arkaos has launched a new version of MediaMaster 5 video control software.
The new version of MediaMaster 5, version 5.4, boosts rendering and performance of the control system by 33% while using the same hardware, utilising a GPU accelerated codec, HAP, to speed decoding elements of the process.
The MediaMaster 5 is fixture based and introduces fixture personalities for the various video entities to the lighting console, eliminating the need to build special personalities for video elements. It also enhances surface control as well as improved support for 4K outputs on Windows.
A new Direct 11 optimised render pipeline is included as well as timecode support through Art-Net and surface and output control by DMX.
