NewsRecorder

Sundance's NewsRecorder allows stations to effortlessly repurpose their newscasts or other live broadcasts for later server-based playback. The program automatically records and segments live shows based on triggers, either through a network connection from a Sundance transmission automation product, or via GPI closure from the production switcher. NewsRecorder sets frame accurate "in" and "out" points and updates the Sundance media database with the appropriate metadata.

NewsRecorder automatically segments the show based on where the triggers are placed in the automation list so that no operator work is required to repurpose the show for later broadcast. Simply set-up the playlist with an ID and name and let NewsRecorder take care of the rest!

Common NewsRecorder applications include:

  • Recording newscasts to repurpose them onto a local cable news channel
  • Recording live shows to play back later in the day
  • Automatically ingest shows as they air from tape for subsequent server playback

 

NewsRecorder is available as an option for FastBreak Automation NXT ™ and Titan™ systems.
