Good evening, Does anyone know the name and model of the TV graphics machine that DSTV uses or something similar to that? In addition are these available in Kenya and for how much (buying and renting)? All I get told is that they are veeeeeeeeeeeeery expensive but no one seems to know (or perhaps they just don't want to share) the price! Thanks D -- Pamoja e:daudi.were@gmail.com <e%3Adaudi.were@gmail.com> skype: d.were

@Daudi, which graphics specifically? B'cast quality equipment are generally very expensive but you can find a solution. Tell me what you want to do i.e create your own graphics, mix your graphics with video, have a fader or countdown effects? Rgds.

Hi + thanks! For example what SuperSport use to put the match clock and match score, sponsors logos, team lists etc. Not sure exactly what all that is called technically! -- Pamoja e:daudi.were@gmail.com <e%3Adaudi.were@gmail.com> skype: d.were

@Daudi, you are welcome :-) . Do you want to do such graphics over a Live event or pre-recorded? Is you final product going be in analogue or digital format i.e tape or mpeg? At some stage will need to think about things like Chroma Key. Lets take this offline, will respond to you asap. On Fri, May 14, 2010 at 11:41 AM, Daudi Were <daudi.were@gmail.com> wrote:

For a live event. Something that could plug into a SuperSport OBV for example. I should say that I am mainly interested in costs and availability! Perhaps not to buy this month! Thanks Daudi

The TV Graphics you are reffering to is a software -content production tools for the digital media (Television). The most popular and widely used is called Vizrt which has several Software for different purposes. There is VIZ|Engine, VIZ|Trio, VIZ|Ticker etc. For your case, u wl'd require VIZ|Trio and VIZ|Engine, in order to display things like a logo, Match results etc. Availability: They don't have an office in kenya but it's widely used here. Cost: No idea, but I know there is an initial cost plus annual licence. You may consider looking @ this, www.vizrt.com On Fri, May 14, 2010 at 12:24 PM, Daudi Were <daudi.were@gmail.com> wrote:

We normally source such software and have done so for KBC, NMG and K24. Offline on rahim@applecentre.co.ke so that we can respond. :D Rahim. On 5/14/10 12:47 PM, Jesse M wrote:
