VSN shows more than 20 new products at BROADCAST 09

Enphasizing the idea of an end-to-end and open broadcast automation solution, VSN will present its latest versions and will try to complete its dealership network.

VSN (Video Stream Networks, S.L.) continues to dig on its ‘OneStop Tapeless TV’ slogan. Therefore the Spanish company will be present at BROADCAST ‘09 (Madrid, Nov 3rd-6th) for the 7th time to present more than 20 new affordable SD/HD broadcast automation products by one single manufacturer.

The target for this year’s event is to expand VSN’s partner network in several countries, by means of a new marketing campaign that reinforces the idea of turnover improvement and cost reduction that the VSN technology provides to the dealers and end users in these hard times. Its also remarkable this year to mention the FOC trial offer of VSN’s IP contribution tool, vsnIPTransfer, for all broadcasters and content providers.

At IBC VSN is presenting a new range of all-in-one ingest, playout and graphics videoservers under the VMax, VXtreme and vsnmatic family names. On-screen graphics have been absolutely redesigned for the brand new vsnmagicCG, fully integrated with the popular vsnmatic playout.

About automation, vsnmulticom9 shows some interesting new features including improvements in the synchronization of servers with playlists, and enhanced workflow design. The traffic and scheduling tool, vsncreaTV, is multiplatform now (Oracle, SQL, MySQL, etc) and features a new flexible and powerful program contract and emission rights management tool. Integration with 3rd parties’ automation (i.e. Harris) is simple and straight forward in the new version.

For Newsroom and Live Production, vsnnews will be shown with the new MOS capabilities to interface with other graphics systems and NRCS. Reliability and flexibility have been greatly improved with a new level of redundancy (playlist) and a smart resources manager for huge SAN configurations.

VSN is also presenting vsnarchive3 (DAM), its third generation multimedia digital archive solution. It allows a more efficient use of the available storage through its exclusive H.264 encoding process. If data tapes are selected for deep archive, the partial retrival process and a more complete messaging system about the peripherals’ status are part of a remarkable set of exclusive features.
