OmniBus iTX Updates — OmniBus iTX is the next-generation, enterprise-class automated transmission suite that delivers a superior return on investment compared with conventional broadcast automation, master control and playout systems. Deployed in a variety of scenarios at some of the world's leading broadcasters, iTX combines and exceeds all the functions of a conventional transmission chain in a single integrated suite of software applications and includes a comprehensive range of advanced media asset management features.

OmniBus will demonstrate the latest version of iTX, offering more than 100 new features designed to further enhance the outstanding flexibility and power of the industry's leading platform. New features include a range of enhancements for iTX's advanced graphics functionality, including adjustable-speed text crawls, optionally driven from RSS feeds or external text files, and support for full-screen-resolution TARGA sequences. The powerful audio processing engine delivers multi-stream PCM and AC3 capability, remapping and processing of streams with full 16-channel embedded output, automatic multi-language mapping using language tags and desktop preview monitoring of multi-channel audio streams. Support is also included for MOS playlists, external HSM archives (DIVArchive, SuitcaseTV), third-party schedule imports and MXF OP1B, as well as regional channels and split breaks. iTX's operational flexibility is further enhanced by new features such as monitoring of commercial minutage against a defined value, VANC data handling and increased support for external graphics devices.

iTX GFX™ — iTX GFX delivers high-quality 2-D graphics, sophisticated 3-D graphics and real-time DVE effects. Running on an enhanced hardware platform, iTX GFX provides compelling real-time graphics effects and delivers full-featured CG capability combined with the ability to handle live video and DVE moves that can be previewed directly on the iTX desktop. As the graphics are resolution-independent, the same graphic can play out in SD, HD or on Web streams without having to be recreated.
