Cuez by TinkerList has announced an integration with SPX Graphics, an open-source live graphics control app that allows users to create and control dynamic HTML graphics. This new integration allows users to fetch templates and automatically populate graphics content directly from Cuez into news, entertainment and other live productions.

As Glenn Elaut, product manager at TinkerList, puts it: “SPX Graphics is a powerful, open-source live graphics control application that allows users to create and control dynamic HTML graphics. SPX is connected with Cuez, allowing fetching templates and automatically populating graphics content from Cuez in news, entertainment, and other productions. This setup is perfect for anyone who wants streamlined control over their graphic designs.”

Tuomo Kulomaa, CTO of SPX Graphics, said: “I’m impressed with the integration done by the Cuez team. It showcases how SPX’s open architecture and APIs can be used to create deep integrations with customised UX in a host application while maintaining the core principles of SPX templates and projects.”

With this tight integration, users can now pull templates directly from SPX Graphics into a Cuez rundown. This feature automatically populates graphics, meaning less manual input and more time to focus on a production’s creative vision. Lower thirds, tickers and even complex graphic overlays can be handled within the interface of Cuez.

As Atte Varsta, CEO of SPX Graphics, said: “We’re super happy with the opportunities this integration brings. Both SPX Graphics and TinkerList are working with a large number of partners and share a mutual view of broadcasting becoming more networked and web-based.”
