New ISO Recording Options In Latest Wirecast

There’s also a back-channel chat for Rendezvous in Wirecast, the latest version of Telestream’s award-winning live production and streaming platform for Mac and Windows.

Wirecast’s Rendezvous peer-to-peer remote conferencing and multi-site production feature now includes a back-channel chat feature enabling behind-the-scenes messaging between hosts and guests. Replicating an on-set comms network, it helps keep programs organized and professional with no surprises during live events.

For Wirecast Pro, the new Shot ISO feature allows users to independently record any shot to disk including Rendezvous shots, audio-only shots, or any user-generated shots. This guarantees that original content is preserved when repurposing or further editing of content is required.

The latest version also supports Secure Reliable Transport (SRT) output using the Caller method with either x264 or Apple H.264 encoding.

“The new release of Wirecast further enhances its flexibility making it the go-to application for live streaming productions,” said Lynn Elliott, Senior Product Manager for Wirecast. “Wirecast and Wirecast Gear have become indispensable communications tools for so many organizations during these challenging times, so we’re very excited to bring these new enhancements to market.”

The release contains several new features and updates such as ProRes encoding on Windows, for both ISO recording and record to disk; performance and efficiency improvements for playback of PNG animations, and restoring the ability to easily bring audio from any application into Wirecast on a Mac. At the same time, an updated Blackmagic SDK adds new resolution options and improves capturing at certain resolutions. And Rendezvous connection improvements provide users with better reconnection if Rendezvous guests are disconnected.
