New products for launch at NAB include Multiple Playout Manager (MPM) and TitleBox Dashboard. MPM is a fully assignable monitoring and control system with rights management for multiple AirBox playout channels from one or more internet-connected PCs locally or from anywhere in the world via IP. This is a networked workflow solution created for multichannel playout centres to monitor and control all channels locally and assign full or restricted rights for any of the TV channels to one or more people to remotely monitor and/or control the TV channels from a remote PC, iPad, Mobile Phone etc. MPM allows multiple operators with sufficient rights to monitor and control one or multiple channels schedules, programmes, view media files, etc, and to even make live changes to the output when needed. It can be used in a simple or complex network infrastructure complete with full redundant operation, if required. TitleBox Dashboard enables the full power of TitleBox graphics presentation in live or recorded productions and gives multiple users in a networked environment the ability to contribute to news, sport, game shows and other live programmes. TitleBox Dashboard gives remote control of TitleBox objects arranged in a playlist with hierarchical structure, ideal for known events, and full flexibility to add and change events needed in live programmes. Vassil Lefterov, PlayBox Technology CEO, said, “We have come a long way from last NAB with doubling of sales in the USA. Also our worldwide sales continue their rapid expansion spearheaded by our country offices and our global partners. As ever, the market is changing and we now see a trend with our customers’ increasing preference for PlayBox servers with IP inputs/outputs, instead of the traditional SDI.” N5834 www.playbox.tv
