Systems integrator Ideal Systems Group has launched SoftCast Technologies, a suite of software products for operating and managing broadcast television channels.
SoftCast will be supported exclusively by Ideal Systems' broadcast engineers and network of offices, which currently includes locations in Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, India, Thailand, Singapore, Japan, and Malaysia.
The new range includes modules for channel in a box; traditional automation; hybrid automation; content ingest; content playout in HD-SDI and IP; CG graphics; media asset management; newsroom computer system; live feed edit and censorship; broadcast schedule planning (traffic); and broadcast ad sales and contract management.
The SoftCast modules can be used as standalone solutions or natively connected to provide an end-to-end broadcast system.
SoftCast is already available in multiple languages including English, Thai, Japanese, and Chinese, and will be localised into more languages as required.
SoftCast has been in development for a number of years. Ideal Systems conducted testing and field trials throughout 2013.
it will be unveiled to the public at the Broadcast Engineering Society Expo in New Delhi, 14-16 January and later at Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union Digital Broadcasting Symposium in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, March 4-7.
"This is the first time this type of product has been sold and delivered on the Internet, and it's very exciting that Ideal Systems is pioneering this new delivery method and customer engagement paradigm," said Fintan Mc Kiernan, Ideal Systems' spokesman for SoftCast.
"This is also the first time that all of Ideal Systems Group offices will be supporting a common product set. At each of our offices, we will provide a high level of support with trained SoftCast engineers and production equipment for demonstrations, trials, and proof-of-concept work."
