DENVER — Sept. 8, 2006— At IBC2006, OmniBus Systems will showcase its iTX software-based broadcast operations system featuring IdeasUnlimited.tv's automated ContentProbe plug-ins, which offer real-time audio and video monitoring, verification, and compliance. Typically, each of these operations would require dedicated hardware, but iTX incorporates the functionality of ControlProbe options into its own interface, enabling smoother and more efficient transmission workflows.

"We are pleased at the rapid acceptance of iTX as a broadcast operations management tool by other vendors in the marketplace," said OmniBus CEO Mike Oldham. "IdeasUnlimited.tv's ContentProbe delivers fault-elimination and recording compliance tools and is built right into the iTX system. Operators can maintain a real-time awareness of the integrity of their transmission channels, which will allow them access to low-cost monitoring and verification capability essential to effective production and transmission operations."

The iTX intelligent transmission software represents a revolutionary approach to software-based transmission and production using standard IT server hardware and Windows Media technology. It replicates all the functions of master control to a very high level of sophistication, allowing small and mid-sized broadcasters to make a measured migration from the traditional hardware-based world toward a next-generation, software-based transmission facility.

Three cost-effective, real-time monitoring, and compliance-checking technologies from IdeasUnlimited.tv join the robust selection of available plug-ins already available for iTX. The FaultTracker plug-in provides automatic real-time monitoring for audio and video faults including frozen/no video, audio silence, and problems with specific logos, graphics, and idents. Automatic Failover Verification compares the main and failover channel outputs and, if these outputs differ, automatically switches to a backup while alerting the operator and generating a fault report. Throughout transmission, ContentProbe Compliance automatically records and stores all transmitted content digitally in accordance with laws and regulations governing specific broadcast markets.
