LIVEGRADE

ALL DEVICE INTEGRATIONS

Livegrade supports a wide range of devices that interact with the software. As they are of different product types Livegrade offers different integrations for the different types of devices.

The device types are:

LUT BOXES

This type of devices is used for interactive look control of an HD-SDI stream. They usually have an in- and output to route the signal through the box. Livegrade connects to them to manipulate the look of the image.
