HALLS 1-3
Video-delivery-technology company ATEME (1.D71) is presenting the TITAN playout solution, accentuating its ability to originate 24/7 linear TV channels and create popup channels for short-term events or personalised programming on direct-to-consumer OTT services. After completing live trials using both its Kyrion and TITAN solutions, the company is also showcasing how BISS-CA, the EBU's open, interoperable standard, allows broadcasters to secure high-value content in contribution and distribution to combat streaming privacy.
Qvest Media (3.B40) has added a selection of app bundles to its Qvest.Cloud platform that allow users to flexibly book such tasks as live production, postproduction, archiving, and distribution as software as a service (SaaS). Debuting at IBC 2019, the apps, which go under the name Qvest.Cloud Go!, include Q.Live for live production via social media and Q.Create, which is available for Adobe or Avid editing and allows ingest, editing, and project management. The others are Q.Archive, Q.Safe, and Q.Air. The last is for cloud-based playout automation for occasional or event-based channels. The company is also working on integrating action-replay functionality into its cloud platform to enable advanced remote production. It hopes to have this operational within six months.
Aperi (2.C30) is outlining the benefits of its new NAT-Firewall app. The innovation is for SMPTE 2022 and SMPTE 2110 IP flows controlled by orchestrator and NMS providers. A lot of broadcasters are now telling service providers that they would like to hand them signals to be transported already encapsulated, already in the IP domain as packets, explains VP, Business Development, Andrew Osmond. As all connections will ultimately be IP, even handoffs from cameras, the primary function of the app is as a firewall. SDI and ASI were secure. But there are huge security issues and complications when it comes to IP. [The app] works like a brick wall. It will allow through only what you tell it to. You can configure the attributes, from high-level attributes to something with a specific destination or IP address. The app also provides NAT (Network Address Translation) for organisation and planning and receives diversely routed flows carrying the same content.
Media Links (1.C31) is demonstrating a conceptual advanced software solution for a wide-area network using its technology. Says Al Nunez, senior VP, sales, Americas and EMEA, Media Links has a long history of being involved in major sporting events, for the men's and women's World Cups to the Rugby World Cup, and we are preparing for a couple of customers for the Tokyo Olympics. Ensuring we have a very robust, stable infrastructure so customers can rely on us is important, and that's what we bring to the table: carrier-grade voice-over-IP.
Bridge Technologies (1.A71) is showcasing an innovative technology demonstration for remote production. The technology, a Widglets API HTML5 video monitor for the company's VB440 network probe, allows the probe to become multifunctional beyond its current deployment for monitoring IP networks, extending its usefulness beyond test and measurement. By leveraging the Widglets API, users can, for example, now deliver a full-motion, colour-accurate, and ultra-low-latency video-monitoring capability to any location or any application where it is needed: all that is required is a laptop and a network connection. The VB440 IP probe supports interface speeds of 10, 25, 40, 50, and up to 100 Gb on dual interfaces, so that even the largest media networks can be accommodated with analysis of SD, HD i and p, HD HDR, 4K and 4K HDR, and above.
Imagine Communications (1.D61) has announced that a new generation of its Landmark Sales solution will improve advertising management for ITV, the UK's largest commercial television network. In an extension of Imagine's longstanding relationship with the network, earlier this summer, ITV completed an upgrade to the more modern, efficient, and technically advanced Landmark II system, allowing it to better manage linear-airtime sales across its increasingly diverse advertising ecosystem. The implementation leverages existing API-based touch points that have been developed by Imagine for key ITV systems, streamlining integration of Landmark II into the ITV advertising-technology platform and wider linear ecosystem.
Pixellot (2.A09) is highlighting the latest advances made with its automated sports-production technology. Following the launch of Pixellot Prime, which delivers linear broadcast-quality productions and was named an NAB 2019 Product of the Year, Pixellot is now demonstrating how it enables broadcasters, production companies, and rightsholders to produce a multi-angle production remotely and with just a single person. This technology is the latest offering tailored to the broadcast market as Pixellot expands to serve every level of sports production.
LiveU (3.B62) shared with SVG its first 5G-powered product: a 5G
