Tieline has released the Cloud Codec Controller software tool to manage Tieline codecs remotely, and allow engineers to configure, connect and monitor all remote codecs from the studio.
‘Remote control is a powerful tool for broadcasters and Tieline’s Cloud Codec Controller delivers a simple user interface to control all functions of a remote codec from the studio, at home, or anywhere they have an internet connection,’ says Tieline VP of Sales APAC/EMEA, Charlie Gawley. ‘The Cloud Codec Controller integrates Tieserver and the latest cloud computing technologies to deliver secure real-time monitoring and remote control of all your ViA, Merlin, Genie and Bridge-IT codecs, as well as smartphones using Report-IT Enterprise.’
The Cloud Codec Controller can immediately detect the presence of a Tieline codec or device running the Report-IT Enterprise app as soon as it connects to the internet. It delivers real time online/offline status of supported codecs and users logged into Report-IT Enterprise; monitoring of connection status, link quality and audio levels; remote adjustment of audio levels; and remote dial/hang-up of remote codec connections from the studio.
An entire network of IP codecs can be monitored and controlled, including selection and loading og programs, and viewing and management of alarms. The HTML Toolbox web-GUI can be used to access all codec controls, mixer and router settings, and program editing and creation.
At the studio, the Cloud Codec Controller can remotely connect and disconnect Tieline’s Report-IT Enterprise app, start and stop recordings, monitor and adjust input and record levels, lock and unlock controls and observe link quality. VIP-Connect can send a secure Report-IT Enterprise URL to a reporter or contributor, and the Cloud Codec Controller can go live with full remote control with a single click.
Cloud Codec Controller is available with two licensing options. A Private Network Licence allows monitoring and management of an unlimited number of codecs over a private network for a low one-time fee. Alaternatively, a Public Internet Licence allows monitoring and management of codecs over the public internet using Codec Client Licenses available as an annual subscription in packs of ten. This licence also includes the features of a Private Network Licence.
