Local Sports Production
Local sports production is an area which often has limited personnel and equipment resources. In fact, some
coverage is dependent on a single camera operator. To help enhance single-camera local sports coverage,
JVC is introducing the GY-HM200SP camcorder with embedded score panel graphics. The camera produces
a real-time score overlay on recorded and streamed HD video output without the use of an external CG and
production switcher. As a result, one person can shoot the game, insert graphics, record, and stream the
production live directly from the GY HM200SP.
Ideally, the GY-HM200SP receives score information
directly from a smartphone or tablet connected
wirelessly to the camera using an intuitive GUI, or
it can interface directly to the sports venue’s own
scoreboard controller through a wired or wireless
interface. The camera includes basic layouts to
cover a variety of sports, but JVC will also be able
to customize the overlay with the names and logos
of teams.
Simple to operate, fully featured, professional camera
Beyond the built-in graphics overlay, the GY-HM200SP features a built-in HD streaming engine with Wi-Fi and
4G LTE connectivity, which allows live HD transmission directly from the GY-HM200SP to content delivery
networks (CDNs) like Ustream and YouTube, as well as the ProHD Broadcaster server powered by Zixi, Wowza
Streaming Engine, and other hardware decoders. The ability to stream live video directly from the camera to
an online audience or a local PEG (Public, Educational, and Government) access channel is critical for schools
or districts with limited resources. YouTube, for example, oers free live event streaming, while a local cable
headend can be equipped with an aordable JVC BR-DE800 ProHD Decoder to allow live broadcasts of the
feed. Simplicity in the eld is also important, because camera operators often are not responsible for camera
setup. Once a network has been setup in the GY-HM200SP, streaming is as easy as pointing the camera and
pressing a button.
