TAG Video Systems announced today that its Media Control System (MCS) is a winner in the Monitoring and Measuring Tools category of the2022 NAB Show Product of the Year Awards. This official awards program recognizes the most significant and promising new products and technologies showcased by corporate partners of NAB Show.

TAG Video Systems is introducing a newly designed Application Programming Interface (API) built to ease the complexity of controlling diverse workflows that reside within the Company’s Multi-Channel Monitoring (MCM) system. The new API is a simpler, unified version that allows users to control every functionality for all workflows under one umbrella, eliminating the need for application-specific APIs. The streamlined interface opens the door for users to easily achieve customization and integration. TAG, the leader in real-time media performance, delivers software-based deep monitoring of linear IP video workflows from live production through OTT delivery. The API will be showcased during demonstrations at NAB in TAG’s Booth # W 3517.

TAG Video Systems, the leader in realtime cloud-based monitoring of linear video workflows once again sets an industry first by supporting JPEG XS to allow live production in the cloud. JPEG XS is a format that answers the need for visually lossless quality with microseconds delay – significant concerns as more broadcasters seek to migrate their live production workflows to the cloud where overall contribution quality and latency are critical.
