Webinar: Unlocking global success for channel operators and broadcasters

Posted on by Russell Trafford-Jones

Date: Tuesday 4th December, 2018. 16:00 GMT

Join IBC365 and Tata Communications to explore how organisations are using cloud playout to deploy a unified solution for both playout and distribution on a global basis, and why cloud is fast becoming the preferred option for many linear channel operators and broadcasters.

Cloud playout offers the potential for rapid channel launches, more efficient and resilient operations and a clear commercial model enabling linear channels to be more successful and profitable.

In this Webinar:

  • Explore cloud success stories, like Woohoo TV, Latin America’s first dedicated channel for sports, music and youth culture. It expanded rapidly into new markets in the U.S. without needing capital investment by deploying Tata Communications’ Cloud Master Control and Video Connect solutions.
  • Learn how Cloud Master Control delivers a future-ready virtualised IP environment powered by industry-leading technology vendors, enabling channel operators to scale rapidly from a single channel to a large-scale multi-channel operation, with complete flexibility and reliability.
  • Understand the business, technology and operational benefits and the crucial questions to ask before moving your channel playout operation to a cloud playout provider.

Video: BBC Wales Cardiff Project Update

Posted on by Russell Trafford-Jones

The BBC’s Mark Patrick talks about the BBC’s move not only of their Welsh HQ but of their move from SDI to IP. Covering the reasons for the move, the architectures they are implementing and how they are mitigating the risks, this is a great real-world example of implementing SMPTE ST 2110.

From IBC’s IP Showcase, Mark explains the interoperability work they are doing and critically how they have approached testing. In large systems and with IT-based systems Mark explains it’s imperative to have repeatable, structured and where possible automated acceptance testing which is a big change in the way we do things in the industry.

Mark also covers training, audio issues, timing incompatibilities and control of the system with NMOS to round off a great, pragmatic overview of this ST 2110 project.
