Czech Television selects Omneon Spectrum for Brno studio

Czech Television has invested in an Omneon Spectrum media server system for its regional studio in Brno.
The new server system, installed by Czech systems integrator Visual Connection, is part of an Avid-based news production environment used to create daily half-hour news reports and bulletins for regional and national broadcast.
"When planning this facility, we realised that we needed an end-to-end solution that would provide us with the fastest possible time to air for our news stories," said Pavel Cermak, Czech Television Chief Engineer. "Of all the solutions we evaluated, the Omneon product came out on top. It is cutting-edge technology that integrates extremely well with our other production systems.
"The Omneon Spectrum media server system provides a central shared-storage platform and enables fast time-to-air in Czech Television's busy news production workflow. As new material is ingested into the Omneon Spectrum media server, it becomes available to journalists who can then use Avid iNews to create stories directly from the server. News segments are sent to air by producers using the Avid iNews ControlAir automation-assist system, which supplies automated rundown lists, provides tracking of script changes, and automates control of production and playback systems including the Omneon server.
"We installed the Omneon Spectrum in a very short timeframe. In fact, in just a few months after placing the order, we were ready and able to go to air."
