Raj TV chooses Omneon’s servers for SD broadcasting

[roh_style]

MUMBAI: Raj Television Network has deployed the Omneon Spectrum media server for multichannel SD broadcasting, including four-channel ingest and six-channel playout.

With the move, Raj Television can now store as much as 10 days or 500 hours of programming in digital files rather than on videotape, enabling automated rather than manual playout with corresponding improvements to efficiency, reliability, and broadcast quality.

Founded in 1994, Raj Television operates two channels with diverse programming that includes music videos, movies, game shows, talk shows, serials, comedy, and news.

The installation of the spectrum servers is part of a facility upgrade corresponding with the rollout of Raj's first 24-hour news station, which began broadcasting in June 2008. In addition to an increasing viewership in South India and Sri Lanka, Raj Television has recently expanded its reach into the Tamil community in Malaysia via Astro-DTH, a major direct-to-home player in the region.

"The spectrum system simplifies our operation considerably by enabling us to schedule and perform simultaneous ingest and playout and by affording real-time control of our complex broadcast workflow," said Raj Television director Ravindran.
