feature content distribution
Today’s viewers expect their content over every delivery platform - appropriately branded, edited and conformed. This puts broadcasters in the curious position of having to determine the best formats and distribution techniques for each channel on each delivery system. Call it multi-platform or multiscreen delivery, today’s broadcasters are challenged with the same moving targets of providing more and more different types of programme feeds all in different formats. David Brass, business development manager, video networking group at Harris Broadcast Communications reports on the challenges posed by anything in, anything out, and the growing complexities in between.
from a traditional broadcast model to one that supports IP-based workflows. However, this hybrid environment transition period is adding many layers of complexity for broadcasters. Input is coming from more and more sources, creating new needs in how we process, manage, reformat, and store content. In addition, there is a growing diversification of the output needed to support delivery to new

Media convergence platform: an all-new approach for savings and delivery
All you need for DVB-T2 from Harris: a fully redundant 12-HD channel DVB-T2 end-to-end solution.
We asked ourselves: how can broadcasters effectively support growing needs for multi-platform delivery with a solution that reduces
To address these issues, Harris has recently launched an industry first - the Selenio media convergence platform. Selenio provides a comprehensive broadband and baseband solution in a 3RU frame that supports full-featured, multichannel video and audio processing, distribution and compression applications - enabled at a size and density scale not seen before in the marketplace.
A complete redundancy architecture is enabled by consolidating all of the processing into the media

the complexity of the traditional workflow while providing an on-ramp to the IP world? And, just as importantly, do it cost-effectively? A change from using separate discrete modules for traditional baseband video and audio processing, video and audio compression and IP networking to an integrated modular system can have tremendous impact. Modular platforms have suffered for years due to the large back module space required for external connectivity, as well as the challenges associated with maintaining temperature rise specifications and the ability to connect to independent networks: one for management, control and monitoring, and another to handle content in the compressed or uncompressed domains.
