Designed for flexibility and ease of use, it delivers the essential playout capabilities needed in live broadcast or production environments, making it the perfect choice for teams looking for professional performance at an accessible entry point.
Static and Realtime Graphics
From simple lower-thirds to interactive realtime graphics, the Just Live Lite application gives you the flexibility to enrich any production.
It seamlessly integrates third-party data sources, enabling automated updates for news tickers, stock exchange, or weather forecasts information.
With Fill & Key (SDI) compatibility for singular.live, Viz Flowics, and SPX templates, Just Live Lite ensures your live productions are dynamic, visually engaging, and ready for professional broadcast environments.

Powered by qualified Apple silicon hardware and AJA and Blackmagic Design for SDI I/O, the Just Live Lite application ensures maximum flexibility and the reliability professionals demand for any live production environment.
Switch to Incoming Live Signal
A key part of the daily production routine reflects the ability to include incoming signals to the signal chain for external feeds such as interviews or breaking news.
The Just Live Lite application seamlessly handles incoming live input signals—such as studio feeds or satellite sources—and routes them directly to SDI or any supported streaming output, ensuring smooth integration into your live production workflow.
Growing File Playout Support
Instant playout of growing files in Live Productions.
This allows the operators to access and play out files while the recording is in progress and is a great way to accelerate your workflow during a Live Show.
Mixed Framerate Support
Videos encoded with a standard broadcast timebase play out smoothly, with every frame automatically matching the selected channel’s timebase for perfect synchronization.
This guarantees that your playout remains stable and frame-accurate, even in demanding live production environments, reducing the risk of dropped frames or sync issues and maintaining the highest broadcast quality standard.
SDR, HDR, Color Space Support
With full support for both SDR and HDR content, the Just Live Lite application empowers you to deliver broadcasts with stunning visual fidelity and reliability. Its advanced color space handling ensures every live production plays out seamlessly, giving you the confidence to meet today’s and tomorrow’s broadcast standards.
