Discreet report steadily increasing HDTV output

Discreet have recorded a significant increase in HDTV programming being finished on their systems over the last twelve months.
A recent sample of their worldwide HD client base revealed that many had seen substantial increases in demand for HDTV programming, a trend reinforced by a similar increase in the number of HDTV capable systems being purchased from Discreet.
Martin Vann, vice president of worldwide systems sales and marketing for Discreet, said: “Discreet have long been a considerable force in HDTV production, right from our 1998 launch of the world’s first fully digital HD non-linear editing system, fire.
“HD production has increased steadily since then. However, over the last 12 months we have seen a significant upsurge in HDTV prime time programming, and, according to our clients, a similar increase in the number of prime time shows being completed on our systems. Discreet systems have become the industry reference for HDTV finishing.”
