BBC Sports purchase EVS AirBox-XT
BBC Sports have put an EVS AirBox-XT in service to produce regularly updated sport bulletins of two-minute duration.
These are broadcast continually by BBC News Interactive and streamed via the BBC Sport website. Duncan Jones, editor of BBC sports, said: "We were chiefly attracted to the AirBox by the immediacy of the operation - the fact that we can update our bulletins at seconds notice means we can be absolutely up to date with the service we offer. We watched the LSM-XTs in use with our colleagues of the BBC Outside Broadcast department and we were able to offer all our staff the chance to learn about the AirBox-XT and operate it. The machine did exactly what we wanted, there was no need to look elsewhere."
AirBox-XT is a production and playout server with integrated Windows based nonlinear editing software. Clips can be incorporated in playlists with straightforward 'drag & drop' commands.
Playlists may include mix & wipe effects and searching is facilitated by a convenient jog remote. Key actions from a live event can be gathered into a highlights package that can be aired in loop mode continuously. The editing functions remain available during this allowing dynamic updating without ever interrupting the ongoing broadcast.
