Early systems were developed in-house by large broadcasters (such as the BBC in UK and CBS in USA), to meet their own specific needs. Historically character generators (CG) were a sophisticated device that produced rather simple results. This type of graphic is used frequently across live broadcast television and is generated with a system called a character generator (CG). Vmix Graphics and Addons starting from 2.Live graphics or broadcast graphics are a type of motion graphic that is produced in real-time. We are happy to announce the 1.0 release of SmartPX Graphics Controller “GC”, a browser based application to control HTML graphics on one or more CasparCG servers and/or live streaming applications such as OBS, Wirecast and vMix. News, Sports, Graphics, Broadcast Packages, Multiviews and more. Runs locally as a server (Windows, Mac, Linux) or in a cloud instance.Template contents are saved to unlimited projects and rundowns. Use existing HTML templates in projects.Customizeable UI controls (plugins) for added functionality.Easy and fast to operate with a mouse or keyboardĪn overview video.There is also a live demo instance available at. Data in the demo is automatically reset few times a day.) (Please note, the demo instance is shared across all users so expect clashes. The tight integration between CharacterWorks and Tricaster, along with Twitter and other databases, makes this a real jack-of-all-trades software. GC was originally developed by SmartPX for YLE, the public broadcaster in Finland. The smooth workflow, interface and ability to import pre-multiplied sequences from popular compositing software truly changes the game in the CG business, making live graphics available to everyone. Markus Nygård from YLE, a regular on this forum, can shed some light on the requirements and remote workflow considerations behind the application. Pre-built binary packages, source code and issue tracker is available at Package Includes: Lower Third Lower Third (Driving and Twitter) Lower Third (vMix Social) Lower Third Social Networks Clock + live (text) Location. A graphics package created with Flowics consists of 1 or more Output URLs, which will be used for integration with your favourite production software. We have interesting features for GC on our roadmap and look forward to any user suggestions and other feedback. vMix is another leading software based solution that provides the tools to create dynamic live productions. It allows you to input videos, cameras, streams. If you are looking to switch to a dedicated software package, read this blog.

Software is freely available, but we will be more than happy to provide creative services in custom template design and related development.
