Established playout experts promise the best of both worlds as broadcasters continue to contemplate transition to IP and Cloud-based playout

Atlanta, GA, USA August 20, 2015 Leading automated playout solutions company, BroadStream Solutions, will be highlighting its SDI/IP hybrid playout technology at IBC 2015 (Hall 8, Stand B29), which offers playout providers the flexibility to pick and choose which of its functions and processes to virtualize and which to keep baseband.

Because there are many varying IP standards out there at present, broadcasters and playout providers are understandably hesitant to invest in an entirely new IP infrastructure , explains Herbert Brenninkmeijer, CEO, BroadStream Solutions.

Whether a customer is working with existing baseband hardware, partly replacing SDI with IP processes or, providing a complete IP solution for future cloud-based playout, we're offering playout providers choice and flexibility. With our SDI/IP hybrid solution, we will be able to support our customers all the way through their transition to IP at their own pace; before, during and afterwards using the same platform .

BroadStream's renowned N+M Redundancy Manager for the OASYS integrated playout platform, which supports hybrid SDI and IP I/O configurations, is one of the solutions that will be demonstrated at IBC for the first time using Multi-Channel Web Client. The intuitive web interface enables users to access playout applications, redundancy and routing from any given machine, using any device; in-facility, on VM (Virtual Machines), local edge-servers, and soon for Cloud-based playout.

Eventually the hybrid functionality will be compatible with all existing applications as well as the entire range of BroadStream's supporting tools.

The OASYS Hybrid automated playout platform allows each broadcaster to take a measured and thoughtful approach to full IP that allows for planning the transition out over time to control budgeting, training, expansion, future plans and contingencies to maximize resources and opportunity.
