The AV Sync Generator toolset, part of Bridge’s wider VB440 production probe, has been enhanced with frame-accurate audio and video synchronisation, as well as support for ancillary data sync. This provides alignment of metadata such as captions, timecode and signalling, ensuring consistent video length, accurate in/out points and precise triggering across complex workflows.
HDR-compatible colour bars have also been added, giving users a visual aid when managing production workflows.
VB440’s AV sync works by embedding machine-readable electronic markers into audio signals. A built-in sync client visualises, in real time, the delta between video and an unlimited number of audio channels or groups, including immersive formats.
Operators gain immediate insight into alignment and can correct errors swiftly and accurately.
Visualisation tools such as rolling shutter simulation, blink-and-beep reference cues, and now HDR colour bars enhance usability and confidence.
Running entirely within a browser-based HTML5 interface, VB440 allows multiple remote users to access and monitor AV sync data without specialist training or localised setup.
With ancillary data support, the tool can help every member of the production team, from video and audio engineers to those managing captions and metadata, maintain workflow precision. Beyond live monitoring, the VB440 also allows for third-party integration via API.
