NiagaraSCX 5.0 by ViewCast

Plano-based ViewCast Corporation has announced the introduction of NiagaraSCX 5.0, the latest version of its remote control and monitoring software application for Osprey-based encoders.

NiagaraSCX 5.0 software incorporates digital rights management (DRM) for Windows Media, MPEG-4 /H.264 and MPEG-2 encoding standards. The software will be bundled with the Niagara streaming systems and is planned to ship in May 2006.

NiagaraSCX allows users to capture broadcasts live, store them to a file and convert MPEG or analog video content to streaming format. The software is meant to benefit those looking for control without compromising on flexibility while managing a large number of encoders.

In addition to Microsoft's Windows Media & RealNetworks players, the H.264-capable software can be played on the Apple QuickTime player. The application incorporates DRM for Windows Media CODEC from SyncCast, a California-based company with solutions for delivering digital content and related data via the Internet and other media.
