AirBox Neo Playout

AirBox Neo provides automated content playout for satellite channels, cable head-ends, over-the-air broadcasters and corporate TV users. It is designed to be extremely robust, in order to meet the highest reliability demands of on-air playout. Due to its unique modular architecture, it is also suitable for webcasters, hotel Pay TV channels, corporate presentations, video wall sourcing and other program distribution systems.

AirBox’s Multi Parallel Output feature enables the running of two or more SDI or IP streaming SD/HD/UHD outputs simultaneously so that broadcasters can easily provide parallel outputs in any combination needed to deliver the content. AirBox supports a wide variety of video/audio formats from virtually every known production platform. Files from third-party video servers such as Leitch, Seachange, etc. are natively supported.

Any changes to the playlist during an on-air session are possible! There are no locked clips in the playlist, except the one which is currently playing. They can be trimmed, edited or repositioned. Playback order can be changed on the fly with commands like skip to next or jump. Such order changes are performed seamlessly without stopping the current playout session. Live productions are facilitated by the powerful Live Show Clipboard which allows insertion and/or execution of various events or live streams.

For automated playout, AirBox allows playlist scheduling for weeks ahead. Resulting gaps or time overlaps are automatically resolved in order to ensure continuous operation even when conflicting timed events are present. Special facilities ensure uninterrupted operation if content files or even entire schedules are missing or misplaced.
