La Tl Chooses Harmonic Playout Solution for Rock-Solid Reliability and Maximum Workflow Efficiency

24/01/2018

SAN JOSE, Calif. - Jan. 24, 2018 - Harmonic (NASDAQ: HLIT), the worldwide leader in video delivery technology and services, today announced that La T l , a broadcast news channel based in Switzerland, has deployed a comprehensive live and scheduled playout solution that leverages the power of Harmonic's Spectrum X media server and Polaris Play automation to control scheduled playout operations and Aveco automation for live news coverage. Featuring powerful playout, news production and channel-in-a-box (CiaB) capabilities, the solution increases workflow efficiency and reliability for the delivery of high-quality live and recorded HD video, enabling La T l to deliver a rich on-air presentation to its viewers.

Recently, we decided to upgrade our playout workflow. Having a powerful media server at the heart of our operations was a top priority, said Francois Vittoz, technical director at La T l . Harmonic offers the most critical component for any playout system - rock-solid reliability, along with extensive deployment experience and a stellar reputation in powering leading news channels. The Spectrum X media server simplifies our workflow, saving us money and allowing us to deliver higher quality branded programming to consumers.

La T l is using Harmonic's Spectrum X media server and Polaris Play automation system integrated with a Chyro traffic system and IMC Technologies Incite MAM software to ensure uninterrupted execution of the playlist and optimal playout of local news and events, including playlists, on-air graphics and subtitles. Combining file and live ingest with comprehensive integrated channel playout capabilities, Harmonic's Spectrum X system lowers La T l 's capital and operational costs. IMC Technologies provided supplier and integration services, ensuring a quick and seamless deployment.

During live events, video is recorded on the Spectrum X media server. The Aveco ASTRA automation system takes control of the Spectrum X media server and a Caspar CG system, allowing La T l to brand its live programming with custom graphics. The Aveco automation system is also integrated with the Incite MAM and a newsroom computer system (NRCS) from Octopus to further ensure flawless playout of live news and events.

La T l wanted a faster workflow, and upgrading its media asset management solution was a great way to achieve that, said Georges Nakhl managing director at IMC Technologies. We designed and integrated a complete system for the channel that includes a simple traffic system and a robust media server.

Our Spectrum X media server features high availability, making it ideal for a local news organization like La T l , where it's important to get on-air quickly, said Ian Graham, vice president of sales, EMEA and LATAM, at Harmonic. Being embedded in the Spectrum X server core software, Polaris Play enables seamless integration with the Chyro traffic system to ensure uninterrupted execution of the playlist. By supporting fixed and open-ended live events, Harmonic's end-to-end playout solution provides maximum flexibility for fast-changing news environments.
