Vision mixer for live video · sport · meetings · events · TV

One vision mixer for all your live video.

Bigscreen Producer is a vision mixer with Preview and Program, TAKE, AUTO and T-bar, transitions, NDI sources with audio, players, M/E, record and replay. The picture goes straight to the screen — the big screen in the arena, the display in the meeting room or the wall by the stage — and Program can be sent on as NDI to your stream or recording. You run it from the control screen or a third-party hardware panel.

Benefits

One vision mixer — from the arena to the meeting room

Producer runs in the Bigscreen player and puts the picture straight on the screen. Cameras, clips, replay and graphics are run from one place — with the controls you know from a vision mixer.

For sport: the scoreboard is built in

If you produce sport, the scoreboard is ready as a source, and countdown, line-up, officials and the other fixed screens are called directly — each with its own key or panel button.

The control screen right next to it

An extra display on the player computer becomes the control screen. It connects by itself once the screen is approved — no login — and switches directly, even if the internet stutters.

The way you're used to

PREV and PGM, TAKE, AUTO and a T-bar that stays halfway if you let go. The lights on the panel show what's on air and what's ready.

Audio follows the picture

Only what's on screen can be heard. A source on Preview isn't heard in the room, and the meter shows whether it has audio before you take it.

Control screen and panel

Run it from the control screen — or from a real panel

The control screen fills the whole display without menus: status at the top, Preview and Program, sources, players, audio and quick buttons. Producer supports third-party hardware panels, so a physical panel can drive the switcher.

  • Pick sources on PREV and PGM, TAKE, AUTO and T-bar from the panel
  • You choose which camera sits on which button
  • Your own shortcuts: pick a key or panel button for each function
  • Producer can be reloaded on its own — the screen output is untouched

Features

What you expect from a vision mixer — and a bit more

Everything below is in Producer on the control screen.

Preview and Program

Pick a source and it lands on Preview. TAKE puts it on screen, AUTO runs the transition. Shift-click sends it straight to Program.

Transitions and T-bar

Cut, mix, wipe, push, slide, iris, fade through black and more — plus sport and team-logo transitions. The T-bar drives the transition itself.

NDI sources as live windows

Every NDI source is shown as a small live window. A pin keeps a source in place even if it briefly drops out, and new sources can be hidden automatically.

Audio mixer and routing

NDI audio with its own fader, AFV and SOLO, master with mute and VU next to TAKE, headphone monitor and per-source delay to keep picture and sound in sync.

Two players: DDR 1 and DDR 2

Clips from the scoreboard's media archive or new files. Loop, play once, and AUTO when the clip ends.

M/E with overlay and chroma key

Build a picture from a base layer and an overlay with crop, position and scale. The keyer removes a colour with eyedropper, tolerance and softness.

Record and replay

Rolling buffer or full recording of your cameras. Set tags, replay from 3, 5 or 10 seconds before, at ½ or ¼ speed, and pick the angle.

NDI output

Program is sent out as NDI with audio that follows master and mute. Preview can be sent too. You choose name, resolution and frame rate.

Multiview

Choose which sources Multiview shows and how big they are — and whether Multiview gets its own screen.

Stinger detection

Teach Producer the stinger on an NDI source. When it appears, Producer can run TAKE or AUTO to Program or set a tag in the recording.

For sport: fixed screens on a button

Countdown, line-up, officials and the other fixed screens from the scoreboard — the same command as on the control page.

Your own shortcuts

Press Record, then the key or panel button that should run the function. Shortcuts are saved on the screen.

Who it's for

For every kind of live video production

Sport, meetings, events or TV — it's the same vision mixer. The picture goes straight to the screen from the Bigscreen player, and Program can be sent on as NDI.

Sport and big screens

Cameras, scoreboard, sponsor clips, replay and team-logo transitions on the big screen in the hall or stadium.

Meetings and conferences

Switch between speaker camera, wide shot and a presentation from a computer via NDI — on the screen in the room and on as NDI for recording or streaming.

Events and stages

Concerts, galas and events: cameras, clips and graphics on the screen by the stage, with replay and M/E layers when you want a little more.

TV and streaming production

NDI cameras in, multiview, M/E with chroma key, record and replay — and Program with audio out as NDI to your encoder or streaming software.

Questions and answers

Frequently asked questions

What is Bigscreen Producer?

Producer is a vision mixer in Bigscreen with Preview and Program, TAKE, AUTO and T-bar. Its sources are your NDI cameras and computers, the players, recordings for replay — and the scoreboard when you produce sport. It's used for sport and big screens, meetings and conferences, events, and TV and streaming production.

Do we need a physical panel?

No. Everything can be run from the control screen and the keyboard. Producer supports third-party hardware panels if you'd rather have buttons and a T-bar in your hand.

Can we use Producer without sport?

Yes. The scoreboard is an extra source when you produce sport. Preview and Program, transitions, NDI sources with audio, players, M/E, record and replay, multiview and NDI output work for any kind of live video.

What happens if the internet stutters?

The control screen sits on the player computer and switches directly, even if the internet stutters.

Can we stream what we mix?

Producer sends Program out as NDI with audio. The streaming or recording itself happens in your own software or encoder that takes NDI in.

How do we get started?

Book a demo and we'll show Producer with your own cameras and sources.
