Sky News Arabia airs with a fully integrated EVS workflow Amsterdam, IBC2012, 7 September 2012 – Sky News Arabia, the sister channel of Sky News in the Middle East and North Africa, was officially launched this spring, powered by a fully integrated EVS workflow. The 24-hour Arabic news service broadcast out of Abu Dhabi from a state-of-theart production facility. Sky News Arabia is a joint venture between the Abu Dhabi Media Investment Corporation and BSkyB, which also runs Sky News in the UK. The free-to-air rolling news channel is being transmitted in both SD and HD across the region, and is available on multiple platforms including tablets and smartphones. Content is ingested and recorded natively as DVCPRO HD codec files on EVS’ XS media servers, with 32 recording channels dedicated to the incoming feeds. These feeds are scheduled with the SchedulAll system and then monitored by Miranda’s iControl system. Streamed on an EVS XStoreSAN, feeds are available both in high and low resolution (H.264 TS), allowing all newsroom users to instantly access media on the near-line storage for editing and playout. The XStoreSAN is a central storage platform with a capacity to store up to 3,000 hours of DVCPRO HD material at 100 Mbps. Using EVS’ IPLink, craft editors working with Apple Final Cut Pro can search for content stored on the XStoreSAN via the IPDirector database, and edit the selected content directly from the central storage. The edit suites are equipped with an EVS export plug-in which allows craft editors to export completed packages to the central storage, as well as to the XS media servers for playout. Journalists and multiplatform production teams at Sky News Arabia use Xedio CleanEdit to prepare news bulletins and reports. The non-linear editor from EVS enables users to make rough-cut edits in low resolution directly on the XStoreSAN. Moreover, Xedio CleanEdit also supports multiple formats and different aspect ratios on the same timeline. As a result, users can swiftly shape content and push it to post-production for advanced editing or to the galleries for playout. Playout operations are managed with Avid’s iNEWS Newsroom Computer System (NRCS) and EVS’ XS media servers, which provide four redundant playout channels. The integration between iNEWS and EVS’ IPDirector through MOS protocol support and the Active X plug-in, allows content and associated metadata stored on the XStoreSAN to be accessed and added – with a simple drag and drop – to the rundown list. In addition, any running order managed from the iNEWS client interface is automatically kept up to date on the IPDirector. Sky News Arabia also uses an XT3 server with an LSM - Live Slow Motion - remote control panel for fast turnaround review of events and time-slip operations. Using EVS’ IP2Archive, a media manager selects media files stored on the XStoreSAN and stores them on LTO tapes for archive. As soon as the file is on tape, the hi-res file is then erased from the central storage. Media on LTO tapes can also be restored on the central storage via the same interface. “EVS was a reliable partner during the launch of our first news HD project in the UK in 2010. Its technology has helped us speed up and optimise our newsgathering operations, which is why we decided to continue our collaboration for the launch of Sky News Arabia,” said Bevan Gibson, launch technical director. 7 September 2012
