Softel Prepares For NAB 2013

Following the recent acquisition of Softel by Miranda Technologies, the company will showcase Swift, its family of re-architected solutions for closed captioning/subtitling and video description software that allows content producers, broadcasters and network operators to quickly and efficiently comply with the FCC Twenty-First Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act (CVAA) mandates for closed captioning video content delivered over IP.
Swift offers end-to-end captioning solutions that enable the creation, repurposing, encoding, transcoding, insertion and transmission of closed captions and subtitles in a wide array of file formats while increasing reliability and productivity.
Also on show will be MediaSphere, an interactivity platform that supports an array of interactive technologies including connected TV, second screen and set-top-boxes. MediaSphere Bridge is a second screen solution that connects to broadcast automation from any major manufacturer and, thanks to Softel’s unique relationships with multiple Automatic Content Recognition (ACR) system providers, offers either in-broadcast triggers or ACR solutions to facilitate interactivity between the TV and smart TVs or second screens.
