Supports all video formats 
Logosys Playout Server 8.0 can now play all the current broadcast formats in both SD and HD, and output them to one or several video cards and/or screens simultaneously. Choose between NTSC or PAL; progressive, upper-field or lower-field interlacing. When outputting to computer screens, you can even define your own resolution and frame rate!

Plays all common formats

Logosys Playout Server has always been able to play many video formats and codecs, such as DVCPRO, DVCPROHD, MPEG‑2 and many AVI and QuickTime-wrapped codecs such as Animation+. That support is now extended with codecs such as Avid DNxHD, MPEG‑4, FLV and H.264. Now that you can generate an alpha channel from any media type, it’s easier than ever to output good looking HD without having to use large files. The new support also includes most common 

Much, much higher performance

By rewriting the software for multi-threading, Logosys Playout Server 7.9 can now take advantage of all your processors by performing many tasks in parallel. Other tasks have been moved to the graphics card, further increasing the performance and enabling real-time functions like scaling. Reading files from disk is now asynchronous and the buffering has been greatly improved and user-configurable.

Stack multiple media freely and re-order them on the fly

All the media you add to an output channel is composited in real-time, using the alpha channels. Play videos, Flash templates, audio and images at the same time and choose the stacking order freely. The Logosys Playout software can even reorder media while it’s playing, and mix the layers using Blend Modes such as Add, Screen and Multiply.

Output to computer screens

The fully GPU-accelerated Screen Producer can be used to display playing media on one or several computer screens, either fullscreen or windowed. Choose if you want your content scaled to fit the screen or displayed at the native resolution. If you have several screens attached you can either choose to mirror them or use each as a separate output. Interlaced media is automatically de-interlaced when you output it to a progressive screen

Multiple video cards in one server

While Logosys Playout is a software-only solution, you can add pro video cards if you need broadcast output. The software supports multiple cards in the same machine, no matter if you use cards fromBlackMagic Design or Bluefish Technologies. You can even use cards that have multiple channels, letting you use smaller cases that are easier to fit in a small rack.

Grab input video and overlay your graphics and videos

Video and audio input into a DeckLink card can now be used just like any other media. Use it as one of several layers (each of which can be transformed with the Mixerfeature) or just overlay other media such as video and graphics on top and then output it. You can even cut a hole in the input video with another video, a Flashtemplate or an image!

Generate alpha channel from a separate file of any type

Use the embedded alpha channel of videos, Flashtemplates and images, or create the alpha channel with a separate file. You can cut a hole in a video file with an animated Flash template, or even an animated image! HD video codecs that are alpha-capable tend to generate very big files. Logosys Playout Server instead lets you use two small files with an alpha-free codec such as H.264; one for fill and one for alpha!

Built-in video effects (DVE)

All playing media can be manipulated in real-time. You can move, scale, mask and change the opacity and video plus audio gain with the new real-time Mixer feature, and take advantage of the built-in animation types, just like with transitions. Other GPU-accelerated effects include image adjustments such as Brightness, Contrast, Saturation and Levels can also be applied, and the Mixer can even de-interlace video, transform it and then re-interlace it correctly.
