h4. What is Galicaster CUBE2 ? CUBE-2?
Galicaster CUBE-2 (GaliCUBE-2) is a mobile multistream recording station designed for mobile operations.
At first glance, CUBE2 has a *15" tactile widescreen integrated* in the case which provides mobility and a quick set up. A wireless keyboard and touchpad may be included with the unit, and the screen is powered through the computer, thus symplifing wiring and installation, *reducing the space and time needed for setting up the recording station*.
At first glance, Cube2's main characteristic is its *case-integrated 15.4" wide touchscreen* and wireless keyboard, which significantly *reduces the space and time needed for setting up the recording station*. Altogether, Cube2 provides mobility and a quick setup with minimun wiring.
From a hardware point of view, it is a powerful unit based on Intel's Core i7, with a extremely silent box and power supply and a computer based on heavy duty components.
From a hardware's point of view, it is a powerful, extremely silent, heavy-duty unit, based on an Intel i7 processor.
h4. Main features
Teltek's Galicaster CUBE2 has [Galicaster 1.3.0|Galicaster:Download Galicaster] pre-installed, tested and ready to run with the assembled capturing hardware. *Galicaster software provides real-time feedback from the captured inputs*, both audio and video, *allowing operators to monitor and control the recordings* and react and solve unexpected situations on site.
- *Galicaster installed and configured*
Teltek's Galicaster Cube2 has the latest Galicaster version pre-installed and ready to run with the assembled capture hardware.

Although Galicaster CUBE2 is meant for mobile offline operations, it can be connected to a Opencast Matterhorn server, receiving schedules and sending recordings for processing and publishing just after the recording, thus minimizing the time between recording and publication and improving the automatization of the system. The upload of recordings can be made immediatelly after a recording or later, when the unit is connected to a network.
- *Real-time feedback and control*
Galicaster software provides real-time feedback of both the audio and video being captured, allowing operators to monitor and control the recordings*, and react to and solve unexpected situations on the spot.
Galicaster software provides real-time feedback of both the audio and video being captured, allowing operators to monitor and control the recordings*, and react to and solve unexpected situations on the spot.
It is *adaptable to many video devices* from USB webcams to profesional cameras. It also captures synchronously from VGA sources (a laptop or a computer, for instance) and audio sources such as microphones, audio mixers or a MP3 player. Galicaster CUBE2 will walk you through the identification and selection of such devices.
- *Prepared for automatic/manual and online/offline operation*
Galicaster Cube2 is can work offline, allowing operators to manually start/stop/edit recordings. However, it can also be connected to an Opencast Matterhorn server to receive recording schedules and automatically export them to Matterhorn, thus minimizing the time between recording and publishing.

GaliCUBE2 also features a *repository with all the recorded media*, with a comprehensive set of operations to manage the collection: sorting old recordings, deleting many recordings in a single operation, sending and resending media to the distribution channels, ingesting to Opencast-Matterhorn servers, adding information to the recordings, etc.
- *Compatible with many video devices*
Galicaster Cube2 works with a wide range of capture devices, from USB webcams to proffesional cameras, and is compatible with most video input formats: composite, component video, S-video, HDMI, SDI, DV... It also captures synchronously from VGA sources (e.g. a laptop or computer sharing its desktop) and audio sources (e.g. microphones, audio mixers, MP3 players, etc.).

Galicaster software provides a high flexibility on recording matters. Galicaster allows you to *choose the encoding and bitrate* of each of your streams (typically 2 videos and 1 audio) giving the option of creating light files ready to be published without further processing . Also, recordings can be exported from the separated stream-style (each source in one fil) to a *customizable side-by-side composition* of the original files.
- *Easy change between combinations of inputs*
"Input profiles" are Galicaster Cube2's mechanism to create groups of capture devices that can be previewed and recorded together. Thus, users can switch from recording a single video to capture a multi-camera environment in a few clicks.

- *All media accesible and ready to use*
Galicaster Cube2 also features a repository with all the recorded media. A comprehensive set of operations is available to use on the recordings in the collection, such as sort finished recordings, delete several recordings in a single operation or add metadata (title, description, name of the presenter, etc.) to the recordings.

h4. Why purcharse Teltek's Galicaster units?
- *Flexible encoding settings*
Users can set up some encoding parameters (such as the codec and/or the bitrate) in order to customize each of the captured video and audio files. This make it easy to integrate Galicaster with other systems that support an specific set of audio/video formats. This feature can also be used to reduce the number of steps to transcode the video (and audio) files into a format suitable for the selected distribution channels \--Galicaster can simply generate files in such format.

Teltek's is the developer of Galicaster and also a contributor to the Opencast Matterhorn platform. We work as responsibles or advisors to several deployments of Galicaster + Opencast Matterhorn around the world and we handle dozens of hours of recordings every week.
- *Immediate remote support in units purchased to Teltek*
Teltek's staff can access a Galicaster unit through a secure connection, in order to provide immediate technical support on client's request.

Galicaster units answer the needs for a constant development and integration within the system administration of your institution or company allowing the use of typical monitoring tools. Our units are assembled as clonics computers with mainstream heavy duty computer components which pass additional testing and resist the day-to-day work of production systems.
In addition, Teltek provides advise and support not only for your unit but also for the *adaptation and enhacement of facilities* to a renewed multistream environment, the *set up of a Opencast Matterhorn cluster* and the *publishing of media* through channels such as Youtube, iTunes-U, media portals, Moodle, Pumukit, Paella Player and others.
h4. Cube2 use cases
Galicaster Cube2 is commonly used for mobile operations. Its compact design with a small form-factor case with an integrated screen makes it very easy to transport the unit to the desired location, set it up with almost no wires required and be ready to record in a few minutes.
Teltek's units are configured to activate a secure network channel to provide immediate remote support.
Together with an OnWheels kit *LINK*, your unit and auxiliary hardware (camera, tripod, wires, audio board...) can be comfortably transported in an protected wheeled case. Everything in a single bundle and safe from accidents.
If so required (even though it is not the primary goal it was designed for), Galicaster Cube2 can be used as a fixed recording station in a classroom, MOOC studio or conference hall.
