Avid | Stream IO 2026.6
For a newsroom or live event, the feed that matters most is the one you only get once; Avid | Stream IO 2026.6 makes sure you keep it. This release protects every incoming feed against failure, and gets breaking stories to air faster—all in software, on the standard hardware you already own.
Protect every feed, automatically
Dual Ingest keeps a second copy of every feed as it comes in—so if a drive, an asset manager, or even a whole site goes down mid-capture, your content survives and you keep working.
Turn the breaking story around faster
Review Channels let operators subclip a story while it's still recording, so breaking content gets to air sooner—without tying up one of your playout channels to do it.

Avid | Stream IO 2026.3 empowers fast editorial turnaround through instant sub‑clipping and secures long‑term platform reliability with Ubuntu 24.04 LTS—helping teams move quicker, stay safer, and stay ready for hybrid and cloud production.
Edit faster, publish sooner
Create instant sub‑clips from ingested media to accelerate turnaround. Add clips directly to playlists without duplicating files, save storage, and export trimmed segments for any workflow—speeding breaking‑news and live‑production delivery.
Stronger, safer, future‑ready
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS support boosts stability and security while giving customers time to migrate. It also prepares Stream IO for improved cloud deployment, including future AWS S3 integration via the updated NEXIS Client.
Avid | Stream IO 2025.6
Avid Stream IO 2025.6 delivers more resilient, modern ingest and playout workflows with loop recording, automatic pass‑through, enhanced proxy support, and fortified security. Together these updates streamline live operations, safeguard critical footage, and provide greater flexibility for evolving production infrastructures.
Always-on loop recording
Avid Stream IO 2025.6 introduces loop recording to ensure critical moments are never missed. Operators can define loop length and retention, automatically generate playlists, and record in OP‑Atom or OP1a with seamless transfer to Avid NEXIS.
Smart automatic pass-through
Automatic pass-through prevents output black by routing any input signal to playout when a channel is idle. This channel-based feature enhances confidence monitoring and keeps live outputs clean without operator intervention.
New low-res proxy format
A new low‑resolution proxy format supports legacy workflows for customers still transitioning from SDI to IP. It complements the high‑quality proxy formats already available, improving backward compatibility across MediaCentral | Production Management environments.
Security & stability boosts
The release emphasizes tighter security and improved system robustness, ensuring Stream IO performs reliably across SDI, IP, and hybrid environments. These improvements strengthen enterprise‑level ingest and playout operations running on off‑the‑shelf hardware.
