Built on ArKaos' latest generation of technology, Media Master runs perfectly and reliably on standard laptops or can play up to eight full frames-per-second HD movies on an octo-core server, says the company.
Media Master's new interface has been designed to give lighting designers and video artists "the best ergonomics possible". Designed around one single window, it is possible to display all playing layers simultaneously, giving designers improved visibility of their shows. Supporting MSEX (Media Server Extensions) protocol, the ArKaos Media Master allows thumbnail display of media directly onto modern lighting consoles.
ArKaos has developed a new media management system for Media Master which allows users to store up to 40,000 visuals in more than 200 folders, making it easier to manage different sets. In addition, better referencing allows users to delete files without having to re-stack a programmed show.
