– Nov 30, 2021 – The core software platform, BPswitch, can be scaled with different hardware solutions to suit the application and size of the installation. The common denominator across all BPswitch solutions is the ease of use.

BPswitch software is designed to help volunteer operators create high quality video content, like a professional Broadcaster, by providing the ability to automate complex tasks into single button pushes on touch screen interfaces.

This ensures a consistency of operation which amazes users with the high production values that can be achieved with little or no training.

Small Churches (up to 499 seats)

ChurchPix

Broadcast Pix ChurchPix Video Production and Streaming SystemsChurchPix is the solution for small volunteer run Churches. It comes with everything you need to start streaming or producing high quality content, including two high quality RoboPix remote control cameras and an appropriate small format Lenovo server.

ChurchPix is easy to install: Connection from the server to the cameras requires a single network cable which carries power and control to the camera and Video and Audio back to the server. The RoboPix cameras themselves are completely remote controllable and are small in size, un-obtrusive and can be provided with optional wall brackets.

ChurchPix is easy to use: The software is controlled from a web-based user interface that can be run on a PC, MAC, Phone or Tablet – this means that a volunteer can easily produce the show whist sitting in the congregation, using a wireless WIFI connection or Smart Phone.

The software arrives with pre-designed user interfaces, graphics templates, stills and clips, all suitable for Church productions. The user can be up and running quickly by simply modifying these templates by adding a logo, photograph, or other design element.

Medium Churches (500-999 seats)

BPswitch FX Series

Ideal for mid-sized installations, the Broadcast Pix FX series adds more inputs, options, and methods of control to our versatile BPswitch software. It is an a la carte solution, so we advise our potential clients to either work with us directly, or a local reseller or installer to configure exactly what is required.

Available with eight or ten inputs, Churches can choose from HDMI, SDI, NDI, or IP inputs for the ultimate in flexibility. The four standard Network inputs can connect RoboPix or other newer style IP PTZ cameras, computers and other IP sources through a simple network interface. And the additional SDI/HDMI inputs, four on the FX8 and six on the FX10, are great for hybrid environments and churches looking to upgrade and use existing SD or HDMI cameras or sources.

Powerful and yet still easy-to-use, the FX series can be controlled from a web-based user interface or optional Mix Effect hardware panel. Easily share live production control by adding a second operator on a second user interface – either locally or remotely. The FX makes it easy to grow alongside your congregations needs.
