Matrox announces InfonetTV 2

Matrox Video Products Group have launched their new product, the Matrox InfonetTV at NAB in Las Vegas this week.
This Matrox InfonetTV 2.0 is an integrated information delivery system designed for cable and community television, corporate communications, educational institutions, digital signage and hospitality channels.
It gives users the power to communicate their messages, with maximum impact and minimal effort; to any target audience they choose, via cable channels, closed-circuit television, and the Internet or an intranet.
Matrox InfonetTV is completely scalable from simple, very affordable, one-channel systems to comprehensive worldwide networks that include dozens or even hundreds of localised channels. Much more than just a slide show program, InfonetTV provides the tools to create, maintain and deliver multi-zone channels with a high-end look, full of fresh, dynamic multimedia information.
"Over the past year, the low price point and ease-of-use of Matrox InfonetTV has made network-quality information and advertising channel production accessible to a vast new group of users," said Tony Manolikakis, Matrox product manager.
"Based on their feedback, we've incorporated the most-requested new features into this software release. We've kept the simplicity needed for small one-channel operations, yet provided the powerful, flexible scheduling tools needed in the most complex worldwide networks."
New features in release 2.0 include: scalable architecture to support multiple channels from a single master system; a simplified, embedded CorelDraw interface that allows non-specialists to easily create basic templates and flexible scheduling tools from basic time-based broadcast playlists to sophisticated priority-based content management.
Matrox will demonstrate InfonetTV 2.0 at NAB 2003 in booth SL631 and will available through Matrox authorised resellers worldwide from June 2003.
