Just In Engine.app
Just Control.app

The Just In Engine application has access to the specific Video Hardware Devices (AJA / Blackmagic Design) and/or NDI®, SRT, UDP, ST-2110 format streams and is responsible for the encoding processes and for writing the video and metadata files to the chosen destination(s). Once started, it runs and works in the background, as all settings can be applied within the Just Control application. The Just In Engine application can be run on the same machine as the Just Control application or on a dedicated macOS machine.
The Just In Engine application interfaces with supported video hardware devices (AJA and Blackmagic Design), as well as NDI®, SRT, UDP, and ST-2110 streams, and is responsible for encoding and writing video and associated metadata files to the designated destination(s).
Once started, it operates as a background service, with all configuration and control managed via the Just Control application. The Just In Engine application can be deployed either on the same system as Just Control or on a dedicated macOS machine, enabling flexible and scalable deployment scenarios.
The Just Control application is a versatile single- and multi-channel control interface for both our capture and playout solutions. Featuring integrated video, audio and captions previews, as well as a feature-aware inspector, it enables operators to manage all available capture and playout channels from a single, unified user interface.
