News Image
Interra Systems has announced that Comcast Technology Solutions has integrated recent updates to BATON Version 9.

Comcast Technology Solutions utilises BATON to ensure high-quality content delivery, and BATON Version 9 offers a new engine and web framework, along with expanded support for checks, formats, and features. These enhancements contribute to increased efficiency and improved user experience for Comcast Technology Solutions media QC operations.

Comcast Technology Solutions is a longtime BATON user, and the company has seen enhancements in the user interface, the upgrade process, and overall performance with the latest version of the solution.

"The updates to BATON Version 9 have provided significant benefits to our team," said Christopher Jones, senior engineer at Comcast Technology Solutions. "The improved user interface has streamlined navigation and operation, enabling faster identification of quality issues. The streamlined upgrade process minimised downtime and facilitated a seamless transition to the latest version."

BATON Version 9 automates QC processes, supporting high standards for quality and compliance. Key features of the latest version include framework updates, enhanced video quality checks for 4K files, support for RDD59 specifications, direct analysis of image sequence formats, and optimised MXF file verification. Advanced diagnostic tools for system health monitoring and an improved API are also included.

BATON Version 9's architecture also includes a complete stack upgrade, with migration to Python 3.x and a new Postgres DB and Django web framework, resulting in a more responsive interface, increased scalability, and optimised resource management. In addition, it features enhanced performance for UHD content QC and analysis, optimised IMF analysis, support for SONY 360 RA analysis, improved cloud support, advanced video and audio quality checks, comprehensive Dolby Atmos support, and expanded format support.

Interra Systems will demonstrate the latest evolution of its BATON product suite at the 2025 NAB Show at Booth W1921, April 6-9, in Las Vegas.
