Grass Valley Celebrates Important Milestone as 200th GV STRATUS System Enters the Market
MONTREAL, February 4, 2016 Since 2011, GV STRATUS from Grass Valley, a Belden Brand, has been helping broadcasters simplify and automate production workflows to produce highly creative content for a more rewarding viewing experience. Now, five years later, 200 systems have been installed almost one per week since the launch. Customers have relied on GV STRATUS to provide complete and adaptable production workflows, with media production tools to assist ingest, editing, content aggregation, logging, transfer and playout.
With version 4.5 released this month, the GV STRATUS Video Production and Content Management System is one of the most widely used systems for live programming. Roughly half are used in news environments, with the other half serving sports, production and play-to-air applications. Designed for simplicity, efficiency and speed, it is a full set of production tools in one application that helps broadcasters better manage entertainment, on-air operations and production media workflows to stay competitive.
Leading companies such as Los Angeles-based KCBS, Shaw Communications Inc., the Pepsi Center, Sky Racing, M ori Television, Tencent, TV Cultura, TV Nova, VC Medios and Canal 9 are using the more than 6,000 seats of GV STRATUS around the world to help create and deliver breaking news and live programming quickly by taking advantage of improved operations management, either in the field or in the newsroom. Users are able to work more efficiently with remote collaboration features and by utilizing the sophisticated rules-based workflow engine to automate complicated tasks.
In everyday life, GV STRATUS enables us to increase efficiency either for live production or for our management system. With multiple rules and configurations, Grass Valley allowed us to go further, even in a small infrastructure like ours, explained Jo l Antonin, co-CTO of Canal 9 in Switzerland.
Tencent Video, Chinas largest and most used Internet service portal, and the countrys biggest video website, relies on GV STRATUS to meet the ever-increasing demand for online video content. For our show The 15 of Us, we researched and tested a number of solutions. We found GV STRATUS to be the most appropriate for our program workflow because of its program management, acquisition, editing and playout tools, said Chang Shu Lei, technical director, The 15 of Us, Tencent.
TV Cultura in Brazil has 30 GV STRATUS seats. By going with GV STRATUS from Grass Valley, were getting much more than an upgrade for our production system, noted Gilvani Moletta, technology director at TV Cultura. In addition to improved connectivity and GV STRATUS being a future-ready application, we chose this solution because it will also help us reduce operational costs and create a more agile production environment.
With so many customizable features and the ability to scale or expand seamlessly as production needs change, GV STRATUS is an ideal solution for broadcasters looking to be more efficient. It integrates easily with other equipment in the workflow and is very easy for operators to learn, which reduces operational costs and creates a more agile production environment.
The task-driven tools in GV STRATUS operate in a wide variety of environments and can be tailored for each users job function, so collaboration becomes easier throughout the entire production lifecycle, said Mike Cronk, senior vice president of strategic marketing, Grass Valley. The fact that 200 broadcasters are now relying on GV STRATUS to get programming to air every day says a lot about the system and its ability to meet the individual needs of so many different kinds of operations. We expect to see continued growth and adoption of GV STRATUS as more and more broadcasters discover the advantages and long-term benefits. This is an exciting milestone for us and a testament to the outstanding work done by our team of passionate engineers.
