AUS: Leading codec manufacturer Tieline - The Codec Company has announced that it has added native Livewire+ support to Gateway and Gateway 4 codecs.

Livewire+ is widely used by many broadcasters for discovery and advertisement when streaming real-time IP audio. Integrating native support for Livewire+ facilitates interfacing easily between Gateway and Gateway 4 codecs and Livewire AoIP networks. Previously the codecs could only connect to Livewire+ devices in AES67 compatibility mode.

“Tieline always advocates for interoperability of equipment from different vendors of IP systems and products,” said Charlie Gawley, Tieline’s VP Sales APAC/EMEA. “That’s why our Gateway platform includes native support for AES67, ST 2110-30, ST2022-7, AMWA NMOS IS-04 and IS-05, Ember+, RAVENNA, and now Livewire+. An optional WheatNet-IP card is also available and we plan to support Dante in coming months. This allows devices using different open standard and proprietary AoIP protocols to connect seamlessly.” 

Tieline codecs specialize in streaming low latency, high quality audio over the internet using a range of wired and wireless IP transports. The codecs are ideal for STLs, network audio distribution, and multiple remote broadcasts. They are often gateway devices in IP networks bridging between wide area network (WAN) nodes that may include the broadcast plant, other studios (inter-studio links), production facilities and live remote broadcast events.  Interoperability between multiple AoIP protocols delivers greater flexibility when integrating IP audio streams into the broadcast plant from a range of sources.

Gateway codecs stream up to 16 mono or 8 stereo bidirectional connections.

New firmware supporting Livewire+ will be available in Q2 of 2022 and will be a free upgrade for existing customers. The Gateway and Gateway 4 codecs debut at NAB 2022 and can be seen at booth C1707.
