Central Control Integrates with Magewell
Production and IP Conversion Solutions
M
agewell and Central Control have
partnered
to
integrate
support
for two of Magewell's highly-acclaimed
production and IP workflow solutions
in the latest version of Central Control's
automation and show control software.
Central Control 4 includes new modules
for controlling Magewell's Director Mini
all-in-one production and
streaming
system and Pro Convert multi-protocol
streaming and video-over-IP decoders.
The new integration will be featured in Director Mini
demonstrations at the Magewell booth (C6816)
at the upcoming 2024 NAB Show, April 14-17 in
Las Vegas. Central Control will also appear at the
NAB Show in the X-Keys booth (SL8118).
Central Control 4 is a live show control and
automation application that bridges a wide variety
of production devices - including video mixers,
graphics systems, lighting consoles, PTZ cameras,
media servers and more - with over 50 control
surfaces and protocols such as X-Keys, Elgato
Stream Deck and MIDI controllers.
The new Director Mini module for Central Control 4
provides control
of scene switching,
graphics
triggering and audio (including VU meters and
" scribble strips " when using a Behringer X-Touch
control surface). Meanwhile, the new module for
Pro Convert decoders allows easy selection of
source video streams.
Magewell's Director Mini is a complete, portable
production and streaming system that combines
multi-input
switching, graphics, streaming,
recording and monitoring in one compact device.
Director Mini lets users easily produce engaging
multi-camera content
through an intuitive
touchscreen interface and companion mobile app.
Pro Convert decoders transform live, IP media
streams into high-quality HDMI or SDI outputs for
connection to monitors, projectors and production
gear.
The
devices
decode
, NDI®
H.264
or
HX2 and NDI®
H.265
compressed video in many streaming protocols -
including SRT, RTMP, RTSP, HLS and more - as well
as High-Bandwidth NDI®
HX3.

" We are thrilled that Central Control has added
for Director Mini and Pro Convert
decoders, " said
Nick Ma, CEO and CTO of
Magewell. " Central Control 4 vastly expands the
ways that our solutions can be controlled and
automated by third-party tools even if they don't
directly integrate with our offerings. "
" By allowing essentially any controller to control
practically anything, Central Control 4 is especially
valuable for productions that use a diverse array of
equipment, " said Joe de Max, Director at Central
Control. " We received many customer requests
to add support for Magewell solutions, and we're
excited to make Director Mini and Pro Convert
decoders part of the Central Control ecosystem. "
