simpleText - A complete system for live text insertion

The simpleText system has been designed to be a complete out-of-the-box package of hardware and software, to add dynamic text to pre-defined graphical page layouts, and overlay this onto SD and HD SDI systems. The simpleText system is simple, flexible and low cost, being designed to fill a gap where previously high-end and expensive systems may have been required.
