Jordanian channel Roya TV has recently upgraded with VSNSPIDER and VSNNEWS. Roya TV has been using VSNs ingest and MCR since 2011.
Roya TVs Technical Director, Laith Fraihat, needed to find an easy way to integrate the news department of the channel with the rest of the workflow of the station, avoiding single points of failure, as well as to expand its MAM system licences and a system to control costs in the Broadcast departments with the goal of planning timetables and advertising campaigns. VSN was to carry out this process, through its Sales Director in Dubai, Álvaro Martínez.
In 2011, VSN had already provided Roya TV with its ingesting, editing, production storage, archive and MCR. The next step was the complete solution VSNNEWS, that includes 2 video servers in redundant mode integrated with VSNCG + for on air graphics and the VSNWIRES module for receiving news from agencies. Also, the different areas of the channel have been integrated using VSNSPIDER platform as a central environment.
Roya TV is one of the most important private channels in Jordan and broadcasts from the capital, Amman. In addition to the described solution, it had further organizational needs. To meet that requisite, VSN has deployed as part of his project the traffic and scheduling module VSNCREATV, that allows to control the contracts and the ads broadcasted, as well as to plan detailed timetables.
With VSNs end-to-end solutions, all the needs that expanding the channels involves are covered, improving efficiency and the speed of use of the system, something that boosts the quality of the broadcasting contents and therefore increases the potential public of the channel all over Middle East, declares Martínez.
“We are very pleased with the solution provided by VSN. It totally covers our entire workflow and content management needs, it is easy to use, its integration with our systems has been perfect and the users have learned to use it in a very short period of time. Plus, the attention and support that VSN’s office in Dubai has shown for us and our project has been excellent”, says Laith Fraihat, Roya TV’s Technical Director.
