Press Release: ToolsOnAir to introduce new major versions of their Ingest and Playout flagship solutions for macOS and Linux, as well as new additions to the macOS product line.

Vienna, Austria. September 12th, 2023 ToolsOnAir, a leading provider of broadcast solutions for the macOS and Linux platforms, today announced version 6 of just: in mac and just:in linux, version 5 of just:live and just:live and the first releases of just:in mac lite and just:in mac lite NDI.

With IBC 2023 starting this week, we are pleased to announce major releases of our flagship ingest and playout solutions and thrilled to introduce two new additions to our macOS product line, namely just:in mac lite and just:in mac lite NDI. These new products share the same flexible and reliable capture engine of just:in mac and cover the indispensable recording functions of broadcast and production environments that might not require the full feature set of our flagship ingest solutions or are in demand for a budget-friendly capture solution. says Peter Steiner, Head of Worldwide Sales at ToolsOnAir.

New Version 6 of ToolsOnAir's Client Server Ingest Solutions for macOS and Linux Version 6 of just:in mac will feature exciting improvements to confirm our commitment to the macOS platform. Highly mentionable are the new Capture Preset Overlay features, to apply overlays such as burnt-in time code or logos, as well as diverse forms of static and/or dynamic data to recordings, followed by the valuable option to choose either CPU or hardware-accelerated encoding when using the new Apple silicon models, to overcome possible encoding limitations, up to the powerful new REST API and seamless integration into the iconik Media Management platform.

Version 6 of just:in linux includes the redesigned iconik integration, an enhanced REST API to improve integration flexibility with third-party systems, advanced metadata handling to secure data entry compliance and an improved file overwrite strategy.

New Version 5 of ToolsOnAir's Client-Server Playout Solutions for macOS Version 5 of just:live and just:play, will introduce NDI in/out capabilities, including VANC data support, as well as additional output formats, a redesigned audio engine and enhanced Rules. The new NDI I/O support unlocks the possibility to receive NDI streams as a Live Input signal or to provide a Full NDI output signal, as an alternative to a traditional SDI output.

The redesign of the audio engine now relies on native SDK support to improve audio stability and multichannel performance. These additions significantly enhance the flexibility and versatility of our playout solutions, empowering broadcasters to achieve their creative vision with ease.

All macOS-based solutions will be ready for the upcoming macOS Sonoma, and all client-server-based ingest and playout solutions will feature SDI, NDI , SRT, UDP, and ST 2110 inputs and outputs to come later this year.

NEW Single Application just:in mac lite and just:in mac lite NDI for macOS The new single application for macOS, just:in mac lite, is positioned as a powerful entry-level capture product, with up to 8 channels of SDI/NDI recording capability using ProRes, H.264, H.265, and XDCAM HD 422 (MXF) codecs and will be introduced at a very competitive price point.

Both just:in mac lite and its companion product just:in mac lite NDI, featuring NDI inputs only, will be available for purchase via the ToolsOnAir Website and authorized partners. Additionally, just:in mac lite NDI will be made available via the Apple App Store as well later this year.
