MUMBAI:
Broadcast content management and delivery company GlobeCast
will be demonstrating the latest trends in the international
broadcasting environment at Nab 2008 in Las Vegas in April.
Media management, multiplatform solutions, HD, IPTV, Mobile
TV and more will all be in the spotlight at its stand.
Broadcasters
are becoming increasingly focused on content creation and
looking to outsource their content management. In response,
Globecast has added media management to its service offering
and Arsenal TV in the UK and Ion Media Networks in the US
are just the latest broadcasters to sign up. Operated from
technical operations centers in central London and Sunrise,
Florida, GlobeCast Media Management offers full playout, disaster
recovery, programme substitution and more, under one roof.
Mobile
TV : With standards developing for the next generation of
mobile television, GlobeCast has been building partnerships
for DVB-H experimentation. In Europe, the company already
operates a 3G headend and delivers more than 100 live channels
to Orange. In the US GlobeCast delivers, encodes and monitors
30 channels for market leader MobiTV.
IPTV:
The company says that 2008 is the year of IPTV in the US and
GlobeCast will be highlighting its role in the development
of this emerging medium with a live demonstration at Nab.
GlobeCast's subsidiary WorldTV recently launched an IPTV platform
in Canada with NeuLion to bring multicultural content to new
markets, and is also aggregating multinational content for
a major US telecom company.
GlobeCast
has gained its extensive knowledge and experience with IPTV
in Europe as Orange's broadcast partner for Orange TV which
has over one million subscribers.
NHD
Makes its Mark: GlobeCast says that it has been involved with
High Definition broadcast for more than ten years, and now
offers permanent and ad-hoc services in HD worldwide. In the
US, new HD-ready fiber capacity means that nearly every news
or sport event can be broadcast across the nation or across
the world in the highest possible quality.
