tvONE announced a firmware and software update for CALICO PRO video processors. This update will introduce DMX control via sACN and a new EDID Manager in CALICO Studio v1.5.

The company said this will allow lighting programmers to trigger video processing functions, cues and transitions directly from their console. This allows the timing of picture and light to be executed from a single environment.

“Integrating DMX control opens up new creative and operational possibilities for production teams,” said Darren Gaffey, global product director at tvONE. “Lighting programmers can now command every pixel, keeping cues and control within their existing console environment.”

The introduction of the EDID Manager gives installers and engineers granular control over display communication. Users can upload external EDID files, create and edit EDIDs, generate specialist single-resolution EDIDs and assign input-specific EDIDs for specialized applications. tvONE said this upgrade will especially benefit LED wall deployments, unconventional signal chains and demanding integration environments.

“Command Every Pixel”―that’s not a tagline; it’s a statement of intent. In live production, the lighting programmer is the conductor of the show. Every cue, every transition, every moment of visual drama flows through the console. Until now, video processing lived in a different kingdom—separate system, separate operator, separate timing headaches. That just changed,” Gaffey said.
