Like in film and television, sports fans are at least conceptually aware that when they watch sports, they are seeing a “finished product.” This product is the result of the work of numerous teams of production professionals all performing incredible technological feats.
But unless you’ve experienced (or are a part of) the “behind-the-scenes” world of sports broadcast, the names in the credits don’t hold the same importance as the action. This is odd, because the realities of sports production, whether broadcast live or not, require preparation, speed, strength, and skill rivaling that of the players.

AI auto tagging comes to ShareBrowser
At NAB 2018 we previewed a new feature in our product line, and, not surprisingly, it captured the attention of many people.
With just the click of a button we can automatically tag your videos in ShareBrowser. Meaning, you choose a video, click an icon, and within a matter of minutes the content in that video is automatically identified using artificial intelligence, tagged with keywords, and searchable.

This year we’re changing things up a bit. We’ll have two stands on the NAB show floor—that means you’ll have twice as many places to get hands-on with our latest gear, try out all the new features, and hang out with us.
We’ll be in South Lower Hall (#SL4607) and South Lower Lower Hall (AKA “beyond the stairs,” at #SL11513). We hope you’ll stop by to grab some swag and check out some of the latest updates to EVO and ShareBrowser, like EVO DPX and the ShareBrowser web app, for example.

We’re excited to announce our brand new ShareBrowser web app!
With the new ShareBrowser web app, you no longer have to install a desktop application to search, organize, and add metadata to your media. Simply point your web browser to EVO and login! You’ll instantly find proxies of your EVO’s media, and you’ll love the beautifully designed, intuitive, clutter-free web interface.
You can use the web app from the comfort of your web browser, whether you’re on the local network or Wi-Fi.

Apple has given us 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) in the new iMac Pro!
The new iMac Pro is a beautifully designed workstation that packs some serious power. It handles monstrous codecs like 8K ProRes 4444 and 5K RED RAW as if they are mere proxies. And, if you’re willing to shell out the cash for the fully loaded version (which will set you back about $13,000) it can handle just about anything you want to throw at it.
But overall, our favorite thing about the new iMac Pro is the fact that you can connect to shared storage over 10Gb Ethernet with much less hassle. You won’t have to shop for another adapter, and that means one less Thunderbolt chassis on your desk, and one less wire hanging out of a Thunderbolt port.
