New Improved ICE Channel-In-A-Box

Digital media innovator Snell will showcase version 3.0 of its ICE Channel-in-a-Box at IBC2012.
Version 3.0 is newly enhanced with added features and integrated functionality that extend the solution's cost benefits to 75% when compared to conventional playout models.
Features set to make their debut in Amsterdam include integrated 3D and 2D graphics and CG functionality with timeline editing control and the ability to populate fields automatically with graphics from Morpheus automation schedule events, as well as from external data sources such as RSS feeds and web-based news and weather services.
To complement ICE's HD and SD simulcast capabilities, as well as the system's ability to provide a clean output, Snell has added a delay server that enables users to record the output of a channel for delayed playout services. At IBC2012, Snell will also be introducing full Dolby E processing within the system as well as mono/stereo audio shuffling and audio clip playout.
ICE Channel-in-a-Box boasts Quantum StorNext File System and StorNext Q-series disk arrays, enabling up to 10 ICE units to share a massive 36TB of storage. The scale-out, high-performance SAN technology allows content ingested on any ICE to be available for playout instantly on any of the other ICE units.
Karl Mehring of Snell said theirs was the most feature-rich platform of its kind available.
He said: "We will continue to add additional functionality in order to integrate more of the broadcast chain into our solution. This will allow our users to reduce the complexity of their operations."
