theibcdaily Playing nicely together Masstech By Michael Burns


A combined workflow for automated playout and


comprehensive asset management is being debuted following the move to acquire the products and technology of PlayBox.


The company is demonstrating how


Masstech’s asset management, archiving and transcoding solutions have now been integrated with the PlayBox channel-in-a-box playout system. The Core of the PlayBox system is the AirBox automation playout server. This is being demonstrated


operating in concert with Masstech Core Asset Management. Masstech claimed the combination establishes a modern, interconnected, highly automated platform for file-based workflow that manages the entire lifecycle of content and meets the full


spectrum of technical, operational and business challenges facing today’s broadcasters. Also being featured at IBC is the new Masstech for Enterprise HTML5-based interface, which offers cross- platform content search, viewing, frame-accurate video editing, and media management. Also on show, Masstech for News enhances Avid iNEWS, AP ENPS, Ross Inception and any MOS-enabled NRCS with its Video-Follows-Text feature. The company claimed the system automates archiving, eliminates fees for adding storage, integrates media and archive management directly within the NRCS and streamlines the movement of content between legacy MAMs, production systems, different NRCS systems and multiple newsrooms. 8.C30


InnSpect for automated STB testing


InnoWave By Monica Heck


An automated test solution for STBs and mobile devices is being shown for the first time on the InnoWave stand during IBC.


The new InnSpect box enables service providers and device manufacturers to automate complex test scenarios replicating user interactions and behaviours on STBs and mobile devices. The new box has a new design, is easier to use and allows multi- device connection. The Portuguese IT company says its InnSpect solution improves the quality of the tests and reduces the testing cycle duration, allowing companies to bring innovations to market quicker and increasing profitability. No scripting skills are needed to use this solution and it provides access to a cloud-based web management portal for easy and intuitive test creation and macro recording.
