When the European Poker Tour (EPT) / PokerStars needed flawless multi-feed production, we delivered the backbone:
A scalable vMix array powering:

🃏 Broadcast & Social Simultaneously
• 16:9 (main broadcast) + 9:16 (YouTube/Instagram)
• No transcoding, no delay sync issues

🎬 EVS-Level Replays, Without EVS
• 25p progressive slow-mo (something EVS can't handle)
• Multi-angle replays as well as VT playout

⏳ Game Integrity Delay
• Custom buffer to protect game integrity
• Dual audio feeds (commentary + clean)

Why This Won the Pot
✔ Cost Efficiency – Avoided more expensive traditional setups
✔ Agility – Modified replay workflows between blinds
✔ Future-Proofing – more people are watching on their phones

"The production looked like high rollers—because it was. Just smarter."

We solve impossible production puzzles for poker, esports and elite events. Let’s talk tech
