UK, February 9, 2015: Eyeheight announces a further expansion to its
range of broadcast compliance plug-ins with the addition of
BroadcastSafeMC8. Designed for use with the latest versions of Avid's
widely used Media Composer editing software, Eyeheight's
BroadcastSafeMC8 incorporates a Broadcast Evaluate display indicating
which parts of a video image require adjustment in order to be fully
broadcast compliant. Eyeheight's
BroadcastSafeMC8 displays non-compliant areas of content in a
user-definable colour with the option of manual or automatic correction,
giving editors greater choice in the way they work. Previously, this was
an auto-only function. BroadcastEvaluate supports all common compliance
standards. Users can alternatively define their own compliance standard
as an XML file. BroadcastSafeMC8
comes complete with BroadcastSafeArea which can be used to generate a
wide range of safe-area markers for superimposition over the video
monitor display. BroadcastSafeArea supports a multitude of standards
including SMPTE, EBU and DPP, in 525/625 standard definition, 720/1080
high definition and 2K line formats. Also included is a centre marker
plus a measurement utility to ensure minimum text height conformance in
commercials. Any marker colour can be assigned by the operator. Eyeheight
(www.eyeheight.com) produces broadcast-standard technical compliance
plug-ins for use with popular video editing software, including Avid,
Adobe and Apple systems. Eyeheight also designs and manufactures 3G, 3D
and HD-SDI equipment for video and audio content origination,

includes audio descriptors, audio loudness conformers, color correctors,
emergency switchers, mixers and keyers, safe area generators, subtitling
decoders, text and graphics generators, timecode processors, video
legalisers and widescreen signal generators. Eyeheight products are
