What is Livegrade Viewer?

Livegrade Viewer is a free companion app for Pomfort’s professional digital imaging and look management software, Livegrade. Designed for Apple iPadOS/iOS, it turns any iPad or iPhone into a personal on-set monitor. DPs and other crew members can connect from anywhere on set to view live camera feeds, playback and references streamed by the DIT.

Whether you want to see the current look applied to the live signals, compare live feeds with reference images, or check lighting, colors, and framing, Livegrade Viewer puts all this right in your hands making collaboration effortless. Thanks to advanced low-latency streaming, it delivers a reliable, high-quality viewing experience.

How Livegrade Viewer works for DPs and others

The Livegrade Viewer app gives all crew with iOS devices direct access to low-latency video streams from Livegrade via a local network on or near set. With just a few taps and a password provided by your Livegade DIT, you can connect your mobile device. Choose from multiple streams to stay ready for instant decision-making.

Single or multi-view streams
Receive either single or multi-view streams from your Livegrade DIT, combining live signals and reference images to evaluate scenes with greater context and detail.
Tailored views
Whether you want a clean camera feed or additional metadata like camera settings or slate information, DITs can create output views tailored to your needs.
Save stills
Capture and save still images from individual streams directly to your Photos app to keep or share references.

How it works for DITs in Livegrade

Unlock streaming functionality in Livegrade by adding the optional “Outputs and Streaming” extension module to your standard edition of Livegrade 7. This gives your DP and other key crew members, such as gaffers or set designers, the ability to easily follow along from their own devices anywhere on set. Livegrade viewer also lets them create their own collection of reference stills on their personal devices.

Customizability
Focus on what helps your DP maintain consistency. Configure multiple streams of live signals and references, create contact-sheet-style overviews of entire scenes, and tailor output views within Livegrade.
Network streams
Livegrade Viewer receives streams from Livegrade via the on-set network using industry-standard encryption. A custom streaming protocol optimized for local wireless networks ensures very low latency and high reliability for smooth monitoring.
Security
Effortlessly meet security requirements in alignment with your production's policy by incorporating watermarks into streams.
