BCNEXXT Brings Next-Generation Vipe to IBC2026, Breaking the 1:1 Channel-to-Server Ratio New innovations liberate broadcasters from legacy playout infrastructure with intelligent automation, greater flexibility and up to 80% lower operating costs.

The Netherlands - July 15, 2026 - BCNEXXT will showcase the future of playout operations at IBC2026 with a new version of cloud-native Vipe at stand 2.B09. Designed to eliminate the traditional one-channel-to-one-server relationship, Vipe enables broadcasters and media service providers to dramatically reduce playout operating costs by up to 80%, while increasing flexibility, reliability and scalability. Its software-defined architecture dynamically allocates resources based on operational requirements, allowing organizations to efficiently manage everything from premium live events to FAST and thematic channels from a single platform.

As broadcasters debate the cost of cloud operations and the importance of digital sovereignty, the conversation has shifted from adopting the cloud to determining where it delivers the greatest operational and financial value. Vipe provides a cloud-native approach designed to deliver greater efficiency while giving organizations more control over where their operations and assets reside. With a cloud-native design, Vipe brings the benefits of cloud deployment while giving broadcasters greater control over costs and the location of their assets, providing the flexibility and agility needed to optimize modern playout operations and helping organizations translate operational efficiency into competitive advantage.

BCNEXXT had the opportunity to start with a clean sheet of paper, said Graham Sharp, VP of Sales and Marketing at BCNEXXT. We werent trying to move a legacy playout system into the cloud. We built a cloud-native operating model from the ground up. That allowed us to rethink every assumption about how playout should work, eliminating the traditional one-channel-to-one-server relationship and dramatically reducing the cost and complexity of operating modern playout services.

Liberating Playout Through Software-Defined Operations Unlike traditional playout architectures that perform all rendering in real time using permanently allocated infrastructure, Vipe pre-assembles content ahead of transmission and manages operations by exception. This allows broadcasters to identify and resolve issues before airtime while reserving operator intervention for genuine exceptions and live events.

The result is a more resilient and predictable operation that reduces infrastructure requirements, improves operator efficiency and enables broadcasters to launch new services in minutes while only paying for the resources they actually consume with the cloud provider of their choice.

New Capabilities at IBC2026 BCNEXXT will showcase a new version of Vipe at IBC with significant new capabilities designed to keep improving efficiency and driving operating costs down:

Enhanced line recording: A lines recording package bringing the efficiency of the Vipe platform to recording live content and sharing it across multiple channels . A record once, use many philosophy that include soft parting, clipping, immediate playback whilst still recording and the management of the recoded content

A turbo-charged regional opt out option that enables multiple personalized regional variants to be derived from a main channel under an easy to use and logical, single point of control, including rights blanking/replacement for streaming services that might have rights restrictions. The intuitive user interface features a 2-dimensional view where multiple opt-out channels and variable content can be managed simultaneously.

Support for newer formats such as HDR HLG. Dynamic CPU/GPU optimization and the enhanced presentation of infrastructure data, continually unifying all system operating metrics into simple user interfaces, which helps increase channel to operator ratios.

Together, these innovations enable broadcasters to manage live, linear, FAST, regional, and event channels from a unified software platform while improving operational efficiency, reducing cloud resource consumption and simplifying day-to-day playout operations.
