Magewell's story from USB Capture to all-in-one production: how a user-first approach powers pro AV, broadcast, and streaming—plus where devices like Director One, Director Mini, and NDI converters fit in real-world workflows. Marc Aflalo sits down with Mike Nann of MVD (Mobile Video Devices)—Magewell's exclusive North American distributor—to trace Magewell's evolution and what makes their gear stick in both broadcast/media production and pro AV. Mike shares his 25+ years in video tech (from Digital Rapids' early Olympic streaming with Windows Media) and explains how Magewell moved from OEM engineering (2011) to its own lineup by finding and fixing the “gaps” between signals, software, streams, and screens. You'll hear how USB Capture popularized true plug-and-play ingest for HDMI/SDI; why the pandemic accelerated adoption; and how the company designs products around “technical invisibility” for pro AV—where the best gear disappears into the workflow—while still giving producers deep control. We dig into Ultra Stream appliances for one-button streaming, NDI encoders/decoders that automatically match displays, and feature-rich tools like Director One (and Director Mini) that scale from touch-friendly switching to Stream Deck/Companion control. Mike also talks pricing philosophy (reliable, mid-range value), firmware-driven improvements shaped by customer feedback (including an active user community), and how Magewell weighs new tech like OMT (Open Media Transport): not chasing “first,” but shipping when the ecosystem is ready and reliability is proven. He closes with advice for AV entrepreneurs: know your strengths, partner smartly (examples: Teleycam cameras, Miri + Speedify bonding), and keep listening to users. 00:00 – Marc sets the stage: story over specs 00:36 – Meet MVD & Mike's background (Digital Rapids, early Olympic streaming) 02:28 – Magewell's shift from OEM to its own product lines 03:52 – USB Capture: true plug-and-play ingest for HDMI/SDI 04:50 – How the pandemic accelerated capture & conferencing use cases 05:23 – Bridging gaps across signals, software, and screens 06:48 – Broadcast vs. Pro AV: different needs, same UX focus 08:31 – “Technical invisibility” and the easy-button mindset 09:32 – Designing user-first—even for power producers 12:03 – Director One/Director Mini: touch workflow + pro integrations 13:54 – From UltraStream simplicity to deeper control when needed 16:11 – Competing on reliability, UX, and plug-and-play (not race-to-cheap) 17:37 – NDI converters that auto-match displays (EDID awareness) 18:24 – Pricing context: durable, mid-range value; long service life 21:13 – Firmware updates shaped by user feedback and community 23:35 – Evaluating OMT: benefits vs. ecosystem maturity 26:23 – Advice to builders: play to strengths, partner, listen 27:29 – Where to learn more: Magewell & MVD Like what you heard?

Send us a textWhat if challenging behaviours aren't problems to fix, but signals showing us how a child's brain works? Dr Vanessa Spiller, clinical psychologist and FASD expert, revolutionises our understanding of neurodivergent children through her groundbreaking "Mind the Gaps" model.Drawing from both professional expertise and lived experience as a foster carer, Dr Spiller explains that neurodiversity simply means brain-based differences - everyone has strengths and weaknesses. The real challenge often lies in the gap between what children are asked to do and the abilities they actually possess. Her approach visualises these abilities as a wheel - for neurodivergent children, this wheel resembles something from the Flintstones: jagged, bumpy, and making progress difficult without proper support.Dr Spiller shares powerful insights about executive functioning - the mental flexibility, impulse control, and ability to link cause and effect that many neurodivergent children struggle with. Rather than forcing children into environments that don't fit their brains, she advocates for finding windows into learning through special interests. "If a child loves trains," she explains, "using Thomas the Tank Engine scenarios to teach cause and effect will be far more effective than abstract examples."Her most heartfelt message speaks directly to parents: "You are the greatest resource your child has." Not the speech therapist, not the psychologist, but you. This shifts the focus from parents feeling they need to be the perfect solution to recognising themselves as an ongoing, evolving resource - experimenting, learning, and modelling the very flexibility we hope to teach our children.Whether you're a parent, educator, or therapist, this conversation will transform how you understand and support neurodivergent children.

Starting with Punggol, The Straits Times looks at how a city in nature can co-exist with wildlife. Synopsis: Every first and third Tuesday of the month, The Straits Times analyses the beat of the changing environment, from biodiversity conservation to climate change. SINGAPORE - In recent months, a globally endangered monkey has unsettled Singapore’s youngest housing estate Punggol, with dozens of reports made against long-tailed macaques for entering human homes. In turn, the authorities have responded to the wild monkeys, which are not considered threatened in the Republic, with an arsenal of measures that range from sterilisation to pelting them with water gel guns, a move that made headlines in August. These solutions, however, are just a matter of playing “catch up” with a situation that could have been anticipated as the northern neighbourhood was once forested land, wildlife rescue veteran Kalaivanan Balakrishnan told The Straits Times during a podcast recording published on Sept 3. The chief executive of the Animal Concerns Research and Education Society (Acres) said: “In the case of Punggol, we should have known at least a decade ago, when the developments were happening, that one day, this will happen because back then, there were already macaques there.” Following ST’s award-winning Green Trails podcast, co-hosts Ang Qing and Shabana Begum return to discuss human-wildlife coexistence in Singapore with Mr Kalaivanan and Ms Jasvic Lye, campaign manager of Our Wild Neighbours, an outreach initiative. Have a listen to this new episode of Green Pulse to find out more about how solutions to manage urban wildlife – and people’s acceptance of the animals – can be improved. This episode was recorded and filmed in front of a live audience at The Fashion Pulpit in Jalan Besar as part of the ST Podcast Live! Sessions celebrating 180 years of The Straits Times.

This STRAT episode confronts the alarming failure of America's domestic intelligence system to identify and prevent violent extremism before tragedy strikes. Using the recent Minneapolis Catholic school shooting as a case study, we examine how warning signs were missed, how radicalization pathways continue to manifest online, and why training and intelligence analysis remain dangerously inadequate. The discussion dives into the shooter's background, the role of hate-fueled ideology, and systemic breakdowns in pre-incident detection. Retired Marine Intelligence Officer Hal Kempfer explains how political pressures, funding misuse, and the hollowing-out of intelligence fusion centers have undermined prevention efforts. He also explores the potential of AI to spot threats online, while stressing the urgent need for trained human expertise, strong regulatory oversight, and a system that rewards prevention—not just prosecutions. This is a sobering look at the consequences of neglecting homeland security's core mission: keeping Americans safe from preventable attacks. Takeaways:· The Minneapolis Catholic school attack illustrates systemic intelligence failures.· Pre-incident indicators are often visible but not acted upon.· Domestic extremism often builds through online venting before real-world violence.· AI can help detect extremist language, but human expertise is vital.· Fusion centers have drifted from their original mission of prevention.· Misuse of federal grants undermines effective homeland security operations.· Law enforcement incentives reward arrests and convictions but not so much on prevention.· Without reform, more tragedies like Minneapolis remain inevitable.#DomesticTerrorism #HomelandSecurity #FusionCenters #IntelligenceFailures #Counterterrorism #ViolentExtremism #MassShootings #PublicSafety #AIandSecurity #Radicalization #PreventingTerrorism #DomesticExtremism #LawEnforcement #SecurityBreakdown #ThreatPrevention #CommunityResilience #STRATPodcast #HalKempfer #MutualBroadcastingSystem #StrategicRiskAnalysis

Earlier this week, Tom set out to move cattle with the kids while I stayed in for a workday. What was supposed to be a simple “fun” project quickly turned into a bit of a rodeo!The heart of this episode is communication and perspective. What seems clear to one person may feel COMPLETELY different to another! When we don't pause to check for understanding, things can spiral quickly. In the end, this story was a reminder of the learning that comes from moments like these. It's vital that we slow down, make sure we're on the same page, and recognize that communication isn't just about what you say - it's about how it's heard!In this episode, we cover:A recent story of our kids “helping” with the cows (and how it really went)How Tom's inner critic made the situation feel worse than it actually wasWhy clear communication matters so much (especially with family)The very different perspectives between Tom and the kidsHow Tom's emotional waves have shifted through inner work and regulation Make sure to hit subscribe/follow so you never miss an episode!Find the complete show notes here: https://terryndrieling.com/communication-gapsConnect with Terryn:Follow on Instagram @terryn.drielingCheck out my websiteSend me an email at terryn@terryndrieling.comResources & Links:Join the waitlist for the Good Movement CollectiveGood Movement music by: Aaron EspePodcast produced by: Jill Carr PodcastingMentioned in this episode:Download your free guide to Handling Hard Conversations!Handling Hard Conversations Freebie

At the heart of The Prophets' vision are “The 24 Essential Supply Chain Processes.” What are they? Find out, and see the future yourself. Click here When OEMs change their schedules or requirements, the ripple effect through the supply chain can feel like a game of telephone. Messages get passed down the chain, sometimes altered and ignored, leaving those further down the line piecing together what has changed. That's the reality for Jenni Smith, VP of Supply Chain at Royal Technologies, who joins the show to share what managing that complexity as a tier two supplier is like.She explains how this constant guessing game makes planning nearly impossible and why direct visibility into the "why" behind OEM decisions is just as important as the numbers themselves.Jenni clarifies that communication and speed are non-negotiable, but doesn't stop there. At Royal, automation is a core strategy, not a side project. She talks about the company's use of robotics to offset labor challenges and how AI is helping them forecast demand, spot volatility, and identify risks months in advance.The conversation then turns to MMOG/LE. While many treat it as a compliance headache, Royal approaches it differently, using it as a framework to uncover process gaps, improve efficiency, and strengthen profitability. Jenni gives a practical example with packaging standards: on paper, Royal could pass certification, but by actually listening to warehouse teams and standardizing packaging, they unlocked real cost savings and smoother operations.But systems and standards only go so far if people are burning out. Jenni is candid about "supply chain fatigue" in today's unpredictable environment. Instead of ignoring it, she leans into knowing her team, rotating responsibilities, giving people recovery time, and jumping into the trenches alongside them during crises.When asked what she'd like to see from tier ones, Jenni's answer is simple: open the doors and invite tier twos in. Real efficiency happens when suppliers can see processes firsthand, ask questions, and solve problems together instead of working in silos. Engagement, she says, is the foundation of stronger relationships up and down the chain.Looking ahead, Jenni's focus is on stability—aligning Royal's supply base to MMOG standards and preparing for the next disruption before it hits. With a culture that values quality, delivery, innovation, and people in equal measure, Royal Technologies proves that even a tier two can lead the way in how supply chains adapt to the future.Themes discussed in this episode:How OEM requirement changes travel through EDI and disrupt tier two suppliersWhy communication speed and context are critical for supply chain stabilityThe role of automation and robotics in reducing labor constraints and boosting efficiencyUsing AI for demand sensing, forecasting, and identifying supply chain risks months in advanceHow MMOG/LE can be used as a tool for profitability and process improvement rather than just complianceThe rise of supply chain fatigue post-COVID and strategies to prevent burnout in small teamsThe value of AIAG membership for tier two suppliers and how it supports training and collaborationWhy stronger engagement between tier one and tier two suppliers is key to solving problems and building efficiency across the chainFeatured on this episode:Name: Jennifer SmithTitle: Vice President of Supply Chain at Royal TechnologiesAbout: Jennifer is the Vice President of Supply Chain at Royal Technologies Corp.,...

The police union says senior police officers' apparent lack of confidence in incoming cops will provide an opportunity for development. Senior officers have criticised the quality of new officers in a police college survey. More than half believe new staff were 'barely' or 'not at all' well equipped with procedures around making an arrest. Police Association President Chris Cahill says it demonstrates where effort is needed. "We've always said over the years that the group after us aren't as good as we were and there's an element of that in there, but it certainly gives a steer where they need to put more resources in LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week's World of DaaS LM Brief looks at new research from MIT, which finds that 95% of generative AI pilot programs inside companies are failing to deliver meaningful financial impact.The issue is not model quality but enterprise integration and a steep organizational learning gap. The report shows ROI is strongest in back-office automation even as most budgets flow to sales and marketing, and that success comes from buying specialized solutions and forming strategic partnerships rather than building in-house.Listen to this short podcast summary, powered by NotebookLM.

This thought-provoking episode of SaaS Fuel welcomes Evan Schwartz, a visionary in AI-enabled sustainability and global enterprise transformation. Together, Jeff and Evan explore the seismic shifts AI is causing in both business and education. They dive deep into how the role of creativity is evolving in an AI-driven world, the pitfalls of hasty tech adoption, and why leaders must focus on documenting processes before layering on the latest tools.

She grew up as the daughter of ranchers, went to college on a rodeo scholarship and became a pro mountain biker.

As modern Britain is mired in confusion over its multicultural identity, growing Islamisation, and moral decline, surprising numbers of people are re-looking to Christianity as the country's foundation. But is Britain a Christian nation? Was it ever a Christian nation? What makes (or breaks) a Christian nation? What can churches and individuals do to work towards the Christianisation of Britain today? Is it a helpful term ... or a hindrance? In this special episode of Pod of the Gaps recorded live at the 2025 Cedarwood Festival, Aaron and Andy discuss these questions alongside special guest David Stretton-Downes, followed by a Q&A with the audience.

Hello to you listening in London, England!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more for courage) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.It's true what they say: "A story grows in the gaps where the facts fall short." 47 and his cabal are exploiting the gaps to create cruel and obscene stories because they have no facts.Headlines that repeat 47's cruel and obscene stories like reign of terror, being on the eve of destruction, days of the dictator, subservience to the sociopath, and so on reinforce these stories. The more these stories are told without the counterbalance of truth, facts, good news, and how We the People are fighting back, the more these lies will take hold in our exhausted minds because these stories keep on gushing like torrents of water out of a broken fire hydrant.Hear me when I say this: I am no idiot. Treacherous times are alive and afoot. 47 and his criminally complicit cabinet, feckless GOP congress, and subservient SCOTUS on speed dial are after nothing short of the utter desecration of our country. So, We the People must continue to push back, show up, stand up, speak up, fight and ever fight!In the darkest days of World War II when all looked lost in the face of Nazi Germany's advance across Europe and the Dunkirk evacuation, Winston Churchill summoned the will of the British people against those odds.    His famous "We shall fight on the beaches" speech was a galvanizing address delivered to the House of Commons on June 4, 1940.Listen to a portion of history: “The British Empire and the French Republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength. Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.”Imagine the immense sacrifice and effort required of the British people to face the adversity and pummeling hardships of war. And yet, they did with courage and determination, with unwavering resolve to resist the Nazi threat, even to the last person, if necessary.If the British defeated the Nazis - against all odds - who are we not to follow in their footsteps and prevail against the enemy within our shores? We have no Churchill to summon us to battle; but we shall fight and we shall win because We the People are defying them and their obscenely hateful stories.Thank you for listening and making good trouble to liberate the land of the free and the home of the brave.  You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

In this episode, I talk about the importance of truly taking ownership in business. For me, that means understanding every part of the operation—not just the parts I enjoy or the ones I'm good at. I share some of my own experiences, like how waking up early has been a game-changer for my productivity and why being versatile as a business owner matters so much.I also take it back to my very first job in a sushi restaurant, where I learned lessons that still shape how I run my businesses today. At the core of this episode, I encourage you to look closely at your business, identify where the vulnerabilities are, and be proactive about fixing them. Success really comes down to knowing every element of your business and taking responsibility for it.

In this special episode, Gresham Harkless reflects on a strategic shift in his approach to lead generation, moving away from prioritizing quantity to focusing on the quality of leads, particularly in the context of his Google Ads campaign.    He initially aimed to collect as many leads as possible, but soon realized that this strategy resulted in mostly low-quality prospects.    Gresham emphasizes the importance of finding the right prospects rather than chasing volume and expressed a goal of securing 5 to 10 quality leads per month.   He highlights a major gap in public awareness around franchise opportunities, revealed through networking conversations and his experience with a BNI chapter application, which he ultimately paused due to interpersonal concerns.   Gresham remains optimistic and committed to adapting his strategy, exploring niche franchise opportunities, and using these regular updates as a grounding part of his routine to track progress and stay focused.
