Bridge Technologies to demo AV sync solution at NAB Show
Summary
This addresses one of the most persistent challenges in live production—ensuring seamless, frame-perfect audio and video alignment across multiple networks from centralised OB production points. The VB440’s AV Sync Generator features an on-screen rolling shutter with early and late zones, along with a visual and auditory signal (“blink and beep”) to assist in manual synchronization. A key advancement is its real-time visualisation of synchronization, displaying precise time deltas between video and individual audio channels or groups. Speaking of the new development, Chairman of Bridge Technologies Simen Frostad said: “This content-based approach to AV sync is a true innovation, particularly in light of its precision and usability. It allows production teams to do more with less – with higher precision, quality and creativity, in a shorter time frame, and with significantly reduced complexity and environmental impact.” He continued: “By embedding synchronisation directly into the content, Bridge Technologies is setting a new standard in live production workflows, ensuring that broadcasters can deliver perfectly synchronised audio and video without guesswork or compromise.”
