Video broadcast systems

Video broadcast systems built for show day

DCMM designs and installs video broadcast systems for studios, live events, corporate town halls, and church services: cameras, switchers, encoders, signal routing, streaming, and the control rooms that run them. Every system gets tested under real show-day load before it goes live.

That test matters because a vendor demo proves almost nothing. The demo runs one camera, wired straight to the encoder, streaming to a private link in an empty room. Show day puts four camera sources on the switcher’s program bus at once, pushes the stream over the same network carrying two hundred phones, and hands the cut to an operator working under that load for the first time. The feed that never dropped in the demo starts buffering in the middle of the keynote.

We test the load before the room fills up

Switcher inputs get mapped to the real camera count and given tally, not left to guesswork on show morning. Encoders get profiled at the bitrate the event will push, on the network it will share, and we run that load days before the crowd shows up.

If a camera source drops mid-show, the switcher already has a backup input cued on preview, so nobody is patching a new source in live in front of an audience. Ask for the load test recording. It’s timestamped and dated before the event.

Broadcast equipment and control rooms

• HD and 4K cameras with lens options matched to the shot you’re framing
• Real-time switching between camera sources, cut live on the program bus
• Control room layouts built around the video wall and the operators running it
• SDI and NDI signal routing so a source reaches the right destination without a manual patch

Streaming and delivery

• Streaming set up for the platforms you publish to: YouTube, a private OTT app, or both
• CDN setup tuned to the latency viewers notice, checked under load before the event airs
• Adaptive bitrate streaming so a phone on weak wifi and a laptop on ethernet both get a stream that plays
• Recording captured alongside the live stream, archived for on-demand viewing after the event

Production features that add polish

• Graphics and titling, lower thirds and animations, built into the switcher’s DVE or a dedicated graphics box
• Slow motion and instant replay for sports and event coverage
• Macro-driven automation that fires camera presets and switcher transitions on cue, so the operator calls the show instead of chasing settings

Training and support

• Hands-on training on your own switcher and control room
• Scheduled servicing and support when a switcher or encoder needs attention

Television production trucks, corporate town halls, and church services streamed past the room all get the same treatment. If your last event only proved the system works in an empty room, we run it under a full one before the next camera goes live.
