Broadcasters and media companies are in a constant battle to do more with less, while simultaneously coordinating production across decentralized workflows.  

clipbox brings control, speed, and flexibility to your core operations. This tool is the master key to unlocking seamless, connected workflows with leading, studio automation and NRCS solutions. Whether you’re working with hybrid or cloud-based systems, clipbox integrates effortlessly into your infrastructure. 

Designed to handle the intensive demands of modern live production and pre-recorded workflows, clipbox provides a simple, intuitive user interface that puts you in complete control of your media. 

Newsrooms are constantly stuck in a juggling act of handling protocols, devices, and hand-offs. Live, remote feeds arrive in SDI, ST 2110, NDI or pure IP while rundowns, graphics and automation live in separate silos. Each hand-off adds manual steps and risk, making last-minute changes slow and scaling to hybrid or multi-site setups even slower.

Clip turnaround times keep shrinking. Now, clips captured at 10:00 go on air at 10:02. But waiting for files to close cuts into scrubbing times, often leading to dropped frames, wrong aspect ratios or missing captions. As a result, teams are calling for frame-accurate proxies, time-coded previews, and edit-while-recording capabilities to verify content in real time.

Broadcasters, tied to budget restrictions, can no longer afford to waste money on single-purpose hardware. But UHD workflows demand 10-bit processing power that outdated servers can no longer deliver, and adding more dedicated boxes only bloats racks, drives up energy bills, and multiplies maintenance headaches. That’s where an all-in-one 2U platform that collapses ingest, playout and graphics becomes invaluable, delivering modern power without the mess.

Built for live and 24/7 channels, the clipbox playout engine delivers HD/UHD A/B or A/A switching with seamless transitions across all standard broadcast formats. Operators can steer it from familiar AMP or VDCP panels, tap straight into a RESTful API, or hand control to third-party automation. Output lands exactly where you need it — SDI, SMPTE 2110, NDI or pure IP — ready for any workflow. 

Newsroom-ready with a full MOS gateway and rundown-centric UI, it slots into any NRCS in minutes. Single- or multi-file Key + Fill graphics stay rock-solid, frame-accurate, while an internal cache fires ultra-short interstitials on cue. NDI preview with embedded timecode keeps monitoring simple, and tight ties to Pebble Beach Marina, SGT VEDA and other leading automation suites future-proof your playout. 

Engineered for fast-paced live and post workflows, our ingest engine captures HD and UHD feeds as crash, scheduled or continuous loop recordings. Bring in signals over SDI, SMPTE 2110, NDI or any IP stream, then record them simultaneously in high-res master and low-res proxy formats for instant editorial access. 

Operators can trigger and monitor every channel from familiar VDCP or AMP panels or drive the system over a REST API. Multichannel NDI preview with embedded timecode keeps eyes on every feed, while growing-file support lets editors cut highlights and export sub-clips before capture ends. Choose from industry-standard codecs that fit your pipeline, such as XDCAM-HD, AVC-Intra, DNxHD, Apple ProRes, XAVC or MP4, and stay in control from ingest to playout.
