AVSP Protocol
AVSP is a proprietary serial protocol giving quite full access to EVS video server
resources:
• simultaneous multi-port control from one serial link @115kbps.
• dynamic channel configuration including mixed channel for effect (audio and/or
video)
• playlist management including train (record in progress) with or without fixed
delay
• timeline management including train (record in progress) with or without fixed
delay
• start/stop mode and GPI conditional events
• slow-motion clips
• extended channel and clip status reporting
• ganged channels control
• duplication or move of clips among network EVS video servers
• auto-backup to XFile
• metadata management (1 name + 3 keywords of 12 bytes each)
• This protocol is used for other EVS products interfaced to the server, like
AIRBOX, AIREDIT, EDIT2AIR and by third-party partners for specific
applications.
IPDP Protocol
For more information on how the IP Director application controls the EVS video
server, refer to the IP Director Technical Reference manual and User manual.
LinX API
The LinX Application Programming Interface is an integrated API used to control
the EVS family video servers through IP connection. It is available since Multicam
10.02 version. It is proposed to EVS partners in order to develop applications
interacting with EVS servers.
This API exposes a simplified view of the video server and its functionalities and
hides future underlying changes in the server architecture.
To be as open as possible to potential users, the API implements multiple layers
to isolate all OS dependent parts in lower layers and provide an interface to many
programming language in the upper layers ( C, C++, C#).
Refer to the EVS LinX documentation for more details.
