The second largest broadcasting organization in Germany’s ARD consortium uses a single automation solution to manage three production control rooms, each configured differently, to control any of the company’s four studios. SWR worked with Aveco to develop the Astra Studio 2 automation platform and demonstrates, in this video, what it can do.
SWR Innovates With Aveco’s Astra Studio News Production Automation Solution
Aveco’s news production automation system features a wide range of industry-leading capabilities including:
• Multiple-studio control, a major advantage over other “automate one studio” systems;
• “floating shots” which provides unprecedented fast ways to respond to breaking news outside a rundown:
• MAM integration so video search in breaking news can bring a clip instantly to air:
• Versatile graphics control including one-button release so a CG operator can best respond to breaking news needs:
• A mission-critical operating system core (QNX) which still has never had a virus (Windows/OSX/Linux software clients):
BRAND CONNECTIONS
• Unique integration of production automation and master control automation;
• Studio control extends to the industry’s largest set of broadcast equipment, in racks, in a multi-city production cloud, and, with our News Studio In A Box;
