Release Notes

The full Cinegy Air package components are:

  • Cinegy Air provides a software-based system for SD/HD/UHD/8K playout automation using standard PC server hardware. Cinegy Air performs video playout by acting as a TCP/IP-connected video "printer" offering its services in a network. The Cinegy Air broadcast automation software connects to the Cinegy Air Playout service and instructs it what to "print" on air and when.

  • Cinegy Studio is modern, highly configurable and customizable control panel for live and studio operations. It is offering higher level of flexibility and additional advanced functionality like integration with Cinegy News workflows and also third-party MOS-based workflows.

  • Cinegy Playout is a universal tool that performs final direct playout without rendering or export. This is a software-based system for SD/HD/UHD/8K playout using standard PC server hardware. It is controlled either by Cinegy Air PRO or Cinegy Studio PRO connected via TCP/IP without any need to restart or reconfigure.

  • Cinegy Encode allows user to convert SD, HD or UHD SDI streams into broadcast-quality, SMPTE-compliant RTP/UDP and NDI streams or vice versa.

  • Cinegy Prompter is an optional component which runs on any commodity or tablet Windows-based PC and is compatible with any teleprompter hardware available on the market.

  • Cinegy EAS Gateway is used for receiving US emergency alert messages from TFT 911 device and playing them automatically.

  • Cinegy Title, an integrated part of the Cinegy Air PRO Bundle, is the CG and branding option for Cinegy Air allowing to add multiple layers of automation/manually controlled, template-based titles, logos, animated graphics, and more. Cinegy Air PRO Bundle includes Cinegy Title Editor, the template designer for building and previewing templates offline as well as a dedicated Cinegy CG tool to control up to 10 layers of graphics and animation – perfect for live operations, such as news and sports. Cinegy Title now also supports audio elements, e.g. a "swoosh" sound when a logo appears or disappears.

    Note
    		 Cinegy Titler is rebranded to Cinegy Title.

  • Cinegy CG, a simple yet powerful live CG and channel branding tool giving you the powers to control graphics in real time on one or multiple Cinegy Playout engines at once. If a loaded graphics template has variables, Cinegy CG will let an operator change the values and even update them on-the-fly on one of the ten available layers.

  • Cinegy Event Manager, an events handler to manage secondary events that can be used to control external devices, such as external SDI switches or GPI signal generating.

Cinegy Air 22.12 Release 2 Release Candidate

Cinegy Air Release: 22.12 R2 RC

Cinegy Air Build: 22.12.0.4862.41493

Cinegy Title Build: 22.12.380.9654

Cinegy Cinecoder Version: 3.34.48.17349

Caution
 Please note that before you start the installation, it is required to manually uninstall all Cinegy Air and Cinegy Titler components that you may have on your machine if current installed version is 21.2 or lower.
Caution
 Configuration made in Cinegy Playout v22.12 is incompatible with previous versions; thus, in case of a downgrade, Cinegy Playout engines will not migrate the settings, and the configuration should be reset manually.
Caution
 Daniel 2 GPU encoding/decoding performance balance is shifted comparing with Cinegy Air v21.9 R1. Daniel 2 decoder is approximately 10% slower, while Daniel 2 GPU encoder is approximately 10% quicker. Please carry out performance testing on your system before using Cinegy Air version 22.12.
Caution
 During installation, .NET Framework 4.8 is installed if lower version is detected in the system. Operating system restart may be required after installation is complete.
Note
 To optimize performance of your NVIDIA graphic board, it is recommended to use the "Prefer maximum performance" value for the "Power management mode" parameter in the NVIDIA Control Panel.
Note
 NVIDIA GPU boards with installed drivers version R525 produce H.264 interlaced video marked as Frame picture structure. The issue is reported to NVIDIA support (NVIDIA Incident Report 4005908). We recommend using the NVIDIA graphics drivers version R515 that encodes the interlaced video with the correct marker of picture structure.
Note
 System memory and resources leak when creating and closing threads with NVIDIA graphics is detected in drivers version R525. The issue was reported to NVIDIA support (NVIDIA Incident Report 4027304) and is fixed in version R535 U1. We recommend using R535 NVIDIA graphics drivers to fix the system memory and resources leak. Please verify the resources usage after drivers upgrades.
Note
 The Cinegy Air playlist format is extended to support item’s dynamic range setting and is not compatible with Cinegy Air v21.9 and lower.
Note
 Preview player settings are extended and should be verified after upgrading to Cinegy Air v22.12.

Major Improvements

– General

  • implemented QRLE decoding from MOV container (colored 32, 24, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1 bit depth + grayscale 8, 4, 2, 1 bit depth) (ticket PUH-106-39429)

  • fixed audio reader failure on SoundDescriptionV2 streams (defect 16267, ticket HXD-523-14764)

  • added support of RAW video (RGB) decoding from MOV container (US 7363, ticket PUH-106-39429)

– Cinegy Air

  • introduced option to display combined length of items in a block and program (legacy calculation) (US 7354)

  • added category indicator to the timeline view (US 7369)

  • fixed incorrect highlighting of "Absolute" start time of the event with 00:00:00:00 offset if it is the first item in the playlist (defect 16229)

  • fixed incorrect playlist highlighting when switching to failover server (defect 16307, tickets NGF-554-27607, JQX-950-20101)

– Cinegy Playout

  • introduced Kantar watermark licensing model, which requires addition of both Cinegy "Kantar Watermarking" license and dedicated Kantar and Audience licenses (US 7360)

  • improved screen output rendering for UHD 8k resolutions

  • fixed long frame encoding of H.264 interlaced stream with B frames when using new NVIDIA drivers (for example, version 527.41 or newer)

– Cinegy Studio

  • extended logging for Cinegy Archive mode (defect 16227)

  • fixed setting the "Auto" trigger to the first item (global loop is ON) and the cued item (global loop is ON/OFF) (defect 16244)

  • fixed disabling of the "Edit" button/option for Graphics on-air item (defect 16261)

  • added warnings when setting inappropriate duration value or specifying incorrect In/Out point to on-air item (defect 16263)

  • fixed incorrect timecode setting to on-air item if playback is on pause and the first or last frame is on air (defect 16270)

– Cinegy CG

  • fixed overflow exception throwing on preview rendering on some machines (defect 16223)

  • fixed incorrect preview displaying caused by addition of a new Cinegy Playout engine (defect 16220)

Important Known Issues

  • NVIDIA RTX and other Turing-generation GPU boards no longer support interlace H.264 encoding. This applies to all versions of any Cinegy software supporting GPU encoding and is a hardware limitation of the NVIDIA boards. Pascal and earlier generations boards are not affected. If using GPU-accelerated NVIDIA features, please be careful to match your settings to the capabilities of your board. Cinegy Playout provides "Pseudo Interlace" mode to overcome these limitation, but please be aware it may only be compatible with other Cinegy software.

  • Some JPEG2000 OP1A files will fail to read correctly and will not proxy. JPEG2000 support should be considered experimental at this time.

  • AAC audio in the Cinegy Air control application preview can be distorted in some cases.

  • NDI version 5.x has a problem of frame skipping during interlaced stream decoding. As a workaround for interlaced stream decoding, we recommend replacing Processing.NDI.Lib.x64.dll version 5.1.3 with version 4.5.3 in the Cinegy Playout engine installation folder. The Processing.NDI.Lib.x64.dll version 4.5.3 can be found in Cinegy Air 21.9 Release 1 or on the NewTek official site.

  • 1080p25 and 1080p29.97 TV formats are not currently supported due to the VANC decoding issue.

  • Occasional machine reboot after installing or updating Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable.

  • Cinegy File Browser is missing in Cinegy Studio (defect 15091).

  • Frame numbering issue for IBBBP/IBBBBP output with AAC-LC audio with some specific video codecs and bitrate (defect 15917, ticket BVA-906-12970).

  • Audio packet size decreases during audio silence on IP output with AAC-LC audio (defect 15950, ticket ENI-672-26743).

  • Blackmagic Design DeckLink video cards occasionally play video without sound or with distorted sound on output. Before using Blackmagic Design DeckLink cards for critical installations 24/7, extensive testing must be carried out in advance.
