Technically, this isn’t an “AV specific” piece of hardware, but the Middle Atlantic RLNK-215 makes its way to AV racks regularly and for good reason. The two-outlet “intelligent power” control device provides basic metal oxide varistor (MOV) surge protection to your AV system, network device, or server.

While on a classroom technology Zoom session, a peer institution mentioned that they had installed a few Atlona cameras in a subset of their classrooms.

I came across a pack of Adobe After Effects assets from Motion Array. They had a free trial option so I downloaded one of their title packs to see if it would work for a project I was working on. The pack I downloaded as my trial pick didn’t end up working for my needs […]
This past week, Crestron visited Duke… virtually, to highlight some new products and to provide an overview of upcoming changes to various Crestron platforms. The key takeaways were, CH5 (Crestron + HTML5) is here, and we’ll soon be able to leverage the platform for more dynamic visuals on touch panels and mobile devices. Also, the […]
Adobe Premiere has been adding features that make collaborating on projects much easier. They explain the workings a bit in this video: Apparently this is being used in the editorial process in feature films, and was made following the suggestions of the teams that worked on films like the latest Terminator.
