Hippotizer™ has become the market leading media
server, featured in top Vegas and West End Productions, national TV
Shows and award winning Club installations. In addition to the many
existing functions, the latest Hippotizer V3 software offers breakthrough
features including: onboard timeline-based control, HippoNet™
networking for multiple units and “no-brainer” media loading
and management!
Key benefits of the Hippotizer V3 include: 1) BUILT-IN encoding of
ANY digital media file. No naming issues, no CODEC problems... just
drop it in media manager on the Hippo interface and the Hippo will automatically
prepare an encode that works best on Hippo. No more having to master
encoding software. 2) Built-in programming interface with timeline is
elegant and flexible; eliminates the need for an additional piece of
gear rental (and a premium line item at that) for getting a lighting
console to run it. 3) Hippo Net allows users to quite easily control
hugely multiple Hippo setups, again elegantly and simply. No more need
for massive amounts of DMX real estate, or dealing with many Hippo interfaces
individually. Now, one Hippo can be used to master all others, even
to the extent of coordinating media moving across all of their collective
screen real estate. 4) Complex surface shaping: projecting on non-tradtional
surfaces no longer requires gear upstream. Hippo's code for warping
imagery also is superior in minimizing pixel loss and distortion. No
other competing piece of gear is doing all of these things, or any of
them individually for that matter.
Hippotizer is a key element at the SOL club in New York, where Alba
Creative’s installation has been nominated Best Video System 2006.
Says Paul Seres, Alba Creative’s CEO, “The Hippotizer HD,
purchased from Barbizon Chicago, drives nine DLP projectors and two
plasmas for 270 degrees of stunning video. We also use the Hippo at
corporate events for extreme graphics displays, presentations and live
video feed. The Hippo has made our job easier with its user-friendly
functionality and virtually endless creative possibilities.”
Awarded Best Debuting Product at LDI 2006, Hippotizer is exclusively distributed
