Appear, a global leader in live production technology, is marking continued success in its groundbreaking hardware-accelerated SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) with key partnerships and deployments globally. A new deployment with Brazil's Grupo RBS, combined with insights from Mobilelinks, Norlys, Televarpi , PSSI and Riot Games illustrates the transformative impact of SRT on media transport worldwide.
Appear launched its hardware-accelerated SRT technology in February 2023, fundamentally shifting how media and entertainment organisations transport high-quality video over cost-effective Internet links. Since then, Appear's SRT solutions have revolutionised operations for broadcasters globally, enabling significant cost reductions while improving flexibility, density, and performance.
Grupo RBS: Redefining Efficiency with Centralised Playout
A notable highlight of Appear's SRT momentum is the deployment with Grupo RBS, one of Brazil's leading media groups. By leveraging Appear's hardware-accelerated SRT solutions, Grupo RBS centralised its Master Control Room (MCR) and playout operations from 12 dispersed locations into a single super-playout centre in Porto Alegre.
Centralising our MCR and playout operations required a robust solution that could seamlessly connect multiple feeds across the South of Brazil, said Roberto Hoffman, Engineering Manager at Grupo RBS. Appear's SRT-enabled X Platform meant we could integrate feeds from different interfaces and sources with ease, enhancing our operational efficiency and paving the way for better broadcast experiences in Brazil.
Appear's SRT technology empowers Grupo RBS to replace costly satellite and fibre connections, providing the lowest-cost option for high-quality video transport over the public Internet. This deployment enhances the broadcaster's operational efficiency, reducing points of failure and ensuring broadcast-quality video streams, even over unpredictable networks.
Norlys, Televarpi , and Mobilelinks Highlight SRT's Versatility
Since its launch, Appear's SRT solutions have been trusted by a range of media organisations, including Norlys, Televarpi and Mobilelinks, who have seen first-hand how Appear's X Platform and SRT innovations drive efficiency and performance.
Televarpi , the receiving end of Norlys' SRT distribution, shares its experience of using the X Platform and aSRT technology for TV channel distribution from Denmark to the Faroe Islands over the Internet. "We ve transitioned from satellite reception, which was prone to disruptions during severe weather, particularly snow, to IP based transport using Appear's SRT implementation on the X Platform. The stability of SRT has been a major improvement," said Tummas Theodor T masson, Lead Engineer at Televarpi .
Mike Jensen, Systems Administrator at Norlys, praised the X Platform's modularity, density and sustainability credentials, which have helped Norlys deliver broadcast TV services over the Internet, despite capacity and stability challenges: The value we get from Appear's aSRT is the density of services handled by a single module, combined with the modular X Platform, allowing us to leverage multiple workflows in each unit, Jensen explained. It suits Norlys' green profile, while enabling costs efficiencies through the reduction in power, cooling, and space requirements. Appear has proven to be a trusted partner, with deep technical expertise and a proactive approach to our needs.
Appear's long-standing collaboration with Norlys has resulted in a trusted, ongoing partnership that aligns technological innovation with the company's sustainability goals. The aSRT gateway solution helps Norlys maintain secure, reliable connections while reducing its operational footprint.
Additionally, Mobilelinks, a leading service provider for live broadcast transmission, recently utilised the X Platform and aSRT module for its Ice Hockey World Championships coverage and mobile DSNG applications. Andreas Langell, CEO of Mobilelinks, shared, The X Platform is a true toolbox for contribution. During the Ice Hockey World Championships, the aSRT module generated multiple high-quality SRT streams with resilient in-built redundancy over dual connections. Everything just worked.
PSSI: Delivering Live Events with Precision and Reliability
PSSI Global Services, a leader in event management and content delivery, is redefining live event broadcasting by integrating Appear's hardware-accelerated SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) technology. Renowned for delivering high-profile MMA, wrestling, boxing, and concert events worldwide, PSSI continues to push the boundaries of flexibility and reliability in video transport.
With its ability to deliver SRT streams to audiences worldwide, PSSI leverages 16 audio channels to offer seamless multi-language support, catering to the diverse needs of end customers. This capability allows PSSI to remain a trusted partner for delivering exceptional live content to international audiences.
Appear's X Platform and SRT technology have been game-changers for us, said Bill Sciolla, Vice President-PSSI International Teleport. We can achieve high-quality, secure video feeds with near-zero latency, even over challenging network environments. This technology expands our global reach while significantly reducing the costs associated with traditional satellite or fibre delivery.
Adopting Appear's advanced SRT capabilities has enabled PSSI to meet the increasing demands of live event broadcasting. Whether managing MMA fights, wrestling matches, concerts, or other events, PSSI ensures reliable, cost-efficient, and high-quality video delivery.
