1.1. Product Overview
Description
LSM-VIA is an IP-based solution that streamlines your live slow motion replay and highlights operations
thanks to its usability, flexibility, speed and control.
It works with the XT-VIA server and relies on EVS VIA microservices ecosystem, opening up new
workflows and providing faster and direct access to all the content on the live production network.
The LSM-VIA Remote Panel offers a streamlined ergonomics. The console layout remains familiar to the
LSM operators.
Its console and its integrated touchscreen provide a direct access to basic and advanced functions.
Both the console key display and the touchscreen are automatically adapted according to the mode you
are working in or the action you are doing, giving you what you need, just when you need it.
The LSM-VIA Viewer is mainly used for content management. It gives access to the list of clips and the
list of playlists from the whole network, as well as to a visual representation of the active playlist.
Compared to the legacy LSM Remote, the LSM-VIA solution provides the following features, among
others:
• faster access to content: direct access by entering the LSM ID; access to all the record trains on the
whole XNet network.
• faster metadata tagging
• new or improved ways of organizing content:
◦ The Shotbox tool allows users to map media items to buttons, with a set of playout options.
◦ The Trains screen gives the possibility to define filters on a selection of record trains on the
whole XNet network.
• assignable shortcut buttons: possibility to map predefined functions, media or Dyvi macros to 6
buttons for a quick access or action triggering.
Setup
On a standard LSM-VIA setup, the operator works with LSM-VIA using the LSM-VIA Remote Panel and
the LSM-VIA Viewer on a dedicated LSM-VIA workstation.
The LSM-VIA Viewer and the LSM-VIA Remote Panel both communicate and control the XT-VIA server
via an Ethernet connection.
The user can access any EVS video server (XT3, XT4K) on the same XNet network as the XT-VIA server
connected to LSM-VIA.
