NewTek at IBC 2016
The NewTek team came to Amsterdam for IBC 2016 to show the Future Of Broadcasting, and by all accounts, delivered. On display were:
- A complete new ecosystem of production tools, the NewTek IP Series, that set a new standard and a new paradigm for high-end facility production with robust hybrid IP/SDI workflow
- In partnership with Wowza, MediaDS™, the world’s first local and global Media Distribution System
- Network Device Interface (NDI®) version 2, with support now for Windows, MacOS and Linux, and for iOS and Android mobile devices, plus enhanced performance and capabilities In this interview with InBroadcast InSight’s Ashley Blankenship, Will Waters of NewTek talks about each of these new products:
Stand 7.K11 was abuzz with crowds to see all of the new products in action, and NDI made it possible to demo live connections to the content and production facilities between our stand and over a dozen partners on the show floor. We previewed the IP Series for the world from the stand: Facebook Live with Don Ballance.
We also shared the complete main stage presentation: Facebook Live: Mainstage with Kiki Stockhammer and Don Ballance
If that weren’t enough, our friends at NewBay Media launched NDIcentral, a news portal dedicated to IP video production news that can be found on TV Technology and Creative Planet websites. NewBay also issued a media release about NDIcentral.
The capstone to the week is that the NewTek IP Series was selected by RedShark News as Most Innovative Product for IBC 2016.

IP Series is A Huge Step Towards the IP Future
“NewTek’s IP series has simply fallen out of the future. In our opinion, it’s five years ahead of anything else. And, in this age of exponential change, that means that it seems decades ahead.”

First Annual NDI Developer Gathering
NewTek held it’s first annual NDI Developer IBC Gathering this year. NewTek CTO and President Dr. Andrew Cross spoke to a packed crowd at the stand, sharing the latest information on just released NDI version 2, and taking questions.
Summing up:
The NewTek IP Series represents the largest change to switcher technology in more than thirty years, and extends NewTek’s line of production tools to top-of-the-line production facilities with a workflow that both preserves their investment while advancing their capabilities to an unprecedented flexibility and scalability. MediaDS bridges the gap from production to distribution in an entirely new way, again creating new ways for today’s productions at any level to reach local audiences or leap beyond to unlimited audiences on a global scale. NDI version 2 extends network transport of video across all computer and mobile device platforms, with increased performance at any definition; on an Intel® i7 CPU, NDI delivers the highest quality and best performance in any IP standard and will encode 1080p at 2200 frames per second (fps), 4k at 780fps, and 8k at 210fps.
In sum, NewTek brought industry-changing technology to IBC 2016, and the result will change the future for producers at all levels, for other industry participants and perhaps most of all for NewTek itself, as its innovations change its position and relationships within the world of media production.
