BV, a leading Holland-based designer and developer of advanced digital
video solutions for the Broadcast industry, has finalised a deal with
Korean Broadcasting Systems (KBS) to supply a 32 channel 24/7 broadcast
logging system, says a company release.
The
Ai-Pixel BVL-5900 system comprises eight VRX-8100 MPEG-2 Digital
Media Servers, a broadcast video logger control system with full
management, automation, search, browse, export, import and edit
capability, a native MPEG-2 editing suite workstation, and IP set-top
box.
With
24 hours a day terrestrial and satellite broadcasting, KBS required
a cost-effective solution to meet the Korean government regulations
which oblige the public broadcaster to store three month's output
in an easily retrievable form.
The
simplicity of the Ai-Pixel solution allows installed units to immediately
provide live, or playback, high-quality video streaming to any desktop
plugged into the network. All this can be achieved with minimal
set-up and administration, allowing for fast implementation, says
the release.
Commenting
on the installation, KBS director of quality control MS Song said,
"The Ai-Pixel BVL-5900 solution replaces our cumbersome video-tape
logging system and will save KBS substantial costs in maintenance,
staffing and human errors. With the full three months' output stored
we now have a complete record of all our broadcasts, in line with
government requirements."
The
Ai Pixel BVL-5900 system was sold to KBS through it's local dealer
Namsung Trading which was given the brief to provide KBS with a
cutting-edge 32 channel recording, storage, playback and streaming
system. Back up is onto a RAID server and the logged video can be
viewed live or played back over the network using streaming over
IP.
"The
advanced connectivity features and extended storage capabilities
of the Ai-Pixel system makes it ideal for this type of demanding
broadcast application," says director worldwide sales Shimon
Ben Ayoun.
The
Ai-Pixel BVL-5900 system includes DVD-quality video, CD-quality
audio, four-channel video input, eight-channel video output, an
expanding array of unique digital features including superior video
quality, advanced connectivity, up-to 1.6 terabyte of internal storage
capability and unrivalled system performance, adds the release.
