EVS In The New Production Centre Of El Mundo TV In Madrid

Unedisa Telecommunicaciones chose technology from EVS, a leading designer of hardware and software for production and playout of programmes, for its new production centre, El Mundo TV in Torrejón de Ardoz in Madrid, Spain.
El Mundo TV, created in 1997, has succeeded in making a name for itself in the independent production market in Spain. It belongs to one of the most powerful groups of multi-media in the country, Unidad Editorial, which includes 42 companies in the press, radio, television, internet and telecommunications. Unidad Editorial is moreover owner of VEO TV, assignee of a licence for open terrestrial digital television.
In July 2007, Unidad Editorial allocated to Unitecnic (a subsidiary company of Mediapro) the "turn-key" project designing the engineering and installation in three studios - among them a studio of 600 square metres - in the new production centre of El Mundo TV in Torrejón de Ardoz.
EVS provided El Mundo TV with a 6 Channels XT(2) production server controlled by the IP Director software for production and playout in the studio. The server is used to introduce content instantly and for playout of various pieces of the different programming platforms, including news, entertainment programs, and sports.
The XT(2) is integrated with various systems part of their existing infrastructure, such as, for example Snell & Wilcox Kahuna switchers and the Avid Unity MediaNetwork 5.0 shared storage system.
El Mundo TV also installed the EVS XStore(2) for content storage, which also will be used as the main gateway between the XT(2) server, the production stations, and Avid post-production stations for news. The producer hopes to acquire a new EVS XStore(2) system in the near future.
Ricardo Castiñeira Sánchez, Chief Technical Officer of Unedisa Telecommunicaciones, said: "The reason why we chose EVS' tapeless digital production is due to its speed, its flexibility, and its integration with other technologies. The advantage of the EVS server and its applications is that as soon as one begins the ingest process, the content is directly available for playout. We know for sure that with EVS we will have the highest level of effectivness and productivity in the workflow."
The EVS tapeless solutions are implemented in various types of mobile units and studios everywhere in Spain, as much for sports events as for program and series productions. Marc Caeymaex, Director of EVS Ibérica, said: "The EVS productions tools which have been used for more than 10 years in the Live Sport Production World offer today new tapeless production perspectives for the Studios World."
Recently, the presence of EVS was spread all around Spain thanks to the provisioning of workflows solutions for studios such as Telecinco, Antena 3, TVE, Mediapro (Imagina, Mediapark, La Sexta...), El Mundo TV, Diagonal TV and many more.
