Following an upgrade in October 2013, the vision path in YSTV is now fully HD.
{{outofdate}}
 
Following an upgrade in October 2013, YSTV went fully HD and updated it's video routing system both in studio and for OBs. The current system is as follows.

The majority of the vision path is made up of two pieces of equipment. Namely:
There are a number of sources that feed video into the video path:
 
* [[Panasonic AG-AC90| Camera's]]
* [[Computing:Graphics PC | Graphics PC]] is fed directly into the ATEM via HDMI using [[Caspar|Caspar]]
* [[Computing:Video Server | Video Playout Server]]
* [[Computing:Ystvstrmre | Stream Reciever]]
* [[Patch Panels|Patching panels]] if the vision stream is passing through the studio and control room.  
 
=== Mixing ===


* [[ATEM 1 M/E | The Switcher]]
* [[ATEM 1 M/E | The Switcher]]
* [[Micro Videohub | The Hub]]
* [[Micro Videohub | The Hub]]


Everything passes through one or both of these devices at some point in its vision life
Which of the 2 YSTV ATEMs is used on any given production depends on which of the [[OB units|OB Units]] is used on that production. (see information about the ATEMS both on the ATEM page and the OB units pages).

The videohub also is only in one unit but can be re-racked if necessary.
 
There are a number of sources that feed video into the video path:
 
* [[Sony HVR-HD1000E | Camera's]]
* [[Computing:PiVT | PiVT server]]
* [[Computing:Video Server | Video Playout Server]]
* [[Computing:Ystvstrmre | Stream Reciever]]


[[Computing:Graphics PC | Graphics PC]] is fed directly into the ATEM via HDMI.
== Stream path ==
The streaming system from the OB unit output is bounced through several places before it makes it's way to the website. This will be the same for a studio show since the practice is now to use OB units in place of a permanently racked studio system. The system runs as follows.


=== Sinks ===
* [[OB units|OB Unit]] - Whichever is being used.
* rtmp://ystvstrm7.york.ac.uk/live/stream1 - The stream is sent to the STRM7 VM server
* [[Transcode Machines|transcode0]] - Our [[Transcode Machines|transcode machines]] which produce the variable formats that the stream can be viewed in.
* rtmp://ystvstrm7.york.ac.uk/stream/stream1_(1080/720/480/360) - The addresses for the various produced video qualities of the stream 
* http://ystv.co.uk/watch/live - the repository address for the final stream where it's hosted on our site.


There are two places that video can be fed to - an input on Vidsrv and the capture card on [[Computing:Stream Encode Server | Strm0]]
