Booth SL2505

NVerzion will introduce enhancements to its automated workflow control solutions as well as the latest complements to the its automation platform, unveiling a cost-effective traffic and billing system and increased capacity in its network-attached storage solution.

NCompass Pathfire and Pitch Blue Interface (New)—This is the company’s answer to helping stations manage the processing and playout of file-based content being received through Pitch Blue, Pathfire and other content delivery systems. NCompass lets stations manage each platform with a single, common user interface that provides access to program metadata and helps them take the content directly from the provider to the on-air video server.

TeraStore—NVerzion is expanding the capacity in its TeraStore line of disk-based storage solutions. NVerzion can now support up to 144 TB of network-attached storage with the addition of a 3-TB/48-bay configuration. The NVerzion TeraStore line features unlimited expandability and easily integrates with all the popular server platforms, including Omneon, Grass Valley, Ross, 360, and others. NVerzion’s embedded Xpansion file management software provides seamless, automated file migration based on user-defined rules and on-air scheduling requirements.

Keep It Simple Scheduler (KISS)—NVerzion will present a technology preview of its new traffic and billing system that is fully integrated with its automation platform. This new traffic system will address the needs of both television and radio broadcasters and will be marketed with a unique pricing structure. KISS will be available at a cost-effective price that provides ownership and on-going support for the software, unlike the majority of traffic systems on the market today that require recurring monthly and annual fees. The system features an intuitive and simple-to-operate interface, operates with, or independent of, NVerzion Automation, and includes a host of additional options, such as a QuickBooks interface.

Automation—NVerzion will also be demonstrating the latest software solutions in its flagship automation platform.
