Extron Announces VNS 104 Multi-Stream Decoding Software

Anaheim, California (March 7, 2013) - Extron Electronics is pleased to introduce VNS 104 Multi-Stream Decoding Software. This new software decodes and presents one or four video sources and one associated stereo audio source streamed from VN-Matrix® 225 or 200 Series Encoders and VN-Matrix Recorder. VNS 104 multi-stream decoding software includes text overlay and status messaging features, which are valuable for distinguishing between AV sources during operation and system commissioning.

"VN-Matrix streaming systems often manage many sources, creating requirements for presenting multiple source streams on display systems," says Casey Hall, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Extron. "VNS 104 provides an efficient, cost-effective method for decoding and monitoring one or four streams on a single display."

VNS 104 multi-stream decoding software operates on Windows PCs and is managed as a part of a system by a VN-Matrix Enterprise Controller. It offers aspect ratio management for VN-Matrix streams, including FILL, FOLLOW, and a 1:1 mode, which can be applied independently to each decoded source. VNS 104 provides an effective method for monitoring multiple streaming sources in a variety of environments including command and control, after action review, training and simulation, and medical or geological visualization.
