TNT Sports Chile steps into the future with PlayBox Neo t...

TNT Sports has invested in PlayBox Neo's Channel-in-a-Box to upgrade and enhance its current HD sports channel expansion, in partnership with technology reseller Duo Chile who also conducted the training.

TNT Sports is one of the leading HD channel sports broadcasters in Latin America and part of the featured brand associated with Warner Bros. Discovery's premium sports content. Through multiple screens and platforms, TNT Sports broadcasts AFA games (Professional Football League & Cup, Champions Trophy), FPF (Paulist o, Female Paulist o, Paulist o A2 and Sub-20) and ANFP games (First and Second Division, Chile Cup), in addition to the most relevant football championships from Europe (UEFA Champions League, UEFA Supercup, among others).

TNT Sports has always leveraged technology to improve efficiency. They chose media production and playout solutions from PlayBox Neo to replace their old third-party playout system for commercial insertion during the Football games. TNT Sports needed a solution that would automate customised playout of content while streamlining its operations and optimising costs.

We are delighted to be partnering with PlayBox Neo to bring innovative technology to the Latin American market for our highly popular sports channel. We have always been impressed with the PlayBox Neo broadcast product and cloud solutions with its impeccable proven track record. Their capabilities are wide-ranging and cover everything from live playout to fully automated transmission which was what we were looking for in a supplier. said Cesar Zu iga, Live Production Technology Director Chile at Warner Bros. Discovery.

PlayBox Neo's Channel-in-a-Box (CIAB) is a world-class playout and channel branding system. Supporting single channel or multichannel HD or UHD operation, it provides all the facilities required to maintain a channel on-air, performed in a single standalone server. It incorporates all the tools a broadcaster requires for ingest, scheduling, text manipulation, interactive graphics, playout and content distribution. Remotely accessible tools to enhance preparation, quality control and content monitoring are also included.

Channel-in-a-Box is the generic name given to the all-in-one playout device for broadcast television and includes the ability to store content immediately as required, add graphics, and deliver to a transmission chain. The PlayBox Neo Channel-in-a Box is a true turnkey solution supporting any desired level of automation right up to 24/7 hands-off playout. The systems integrated into TNT Sports will stand them in good stead for years to come populated with ListBox Neo-20 scheduling, TitleBox Neo-20 CG & interactive graphics, Capture Suite content ingest plus Media Gateway live delivery and distribution. PlayBox Neo CIAB installations are highly space efficient and easy to handle technically if or when one needs replacement or relocation.

Our Channel-in-a-Box turnkey technology is a sought-after product for most media companies as it offers versatility regarding onsite hardware, server-based software, network-connected hybrid or fully cloud-based expertise. We are honoured by TNT Sports' commitment to our products and services. Our approach is customer-focused and continues to be the backbone of many highly successful broadcast media networks around the world. Reliability was a key deciding factor for TNT Sports, and we could clearly show that PlayBox Neo leads the market in this defined area. In broadcast, on air deadlines are often very tight and unforgiving, and even an hour's delay can be catastrophic, so we knew that they have chosen robust technology with dedicated round the clock support teams they can fully rely on to give them peace of mind. added Sonya Chakarova, Business Development Manager at PlayBox Neo
