Nov 18, 2005 10:31 AM, Automation Update e-newsletter
OmniBus has announced that Central Florida News 13, a Bright House Networks news channel, is installing OmniBus automation within its Orlando facility to enable streamlined production and 24-hour delivery of local news, weather and sports programming.
The OmniBus system will integrate with other broadcast technologies including a Pinnacle Systems Vortex video server, AP's ENPS newsroom production system, and VertigoXmedia graphics automation for 24-hour local news coverage presented in the same wheel format in use at Tampa, Fla. all-news cable channel, Bay News 9. The facility will rely on OmniBus automation for playout of both live and recorded segments and delivery of continuous, up-to-the-minute newscasts for News 13 viewers.
Central Florida News 13's new OmniBus automation system will serve as the facility's central interface for controlling devices, getting feedback, and relaying playout messages. The OmniBus Desktop Control (ODC) interface will give news reporters the ability to search and browse archived material, create graphics, put production elements for studio events into the script, and control a variety of other functions from a single desktop.
