Miranda’s Hybrid routing delivers flexiblity for IMG mediahouse

Miranda busy simplifying things at IMG mediahouseMiranda’s Hybrid routing was used by IMG mediahouse to simplify the signal management for its first major World Feed 3DTV broadcast of a Premiership football match, which took place in mid-September during the game between Manchester United and Chelsea.

The IMG mediahouse broadcast facility recently installed a NVISION 8500 Hybrid routing system with integrated audio processing to serve three 3Gbps/HD studios for its live productions. This facility is also used for the BBC’s The Football League show and by ESPN for Premier League matches.

“The Miranda system sits as the hub of this very busy live facility, and we’ve been delighted with its performance across our new production studios and galleries. We wanted to build in capability for 3D workflow, and this system has accommodated it seamlessly,” said Shane Warden, General Manager at IMG mediahouse.

“We’re using a mix of 3Gbps, HD, SD, ASI, AES and MADI sources for our live sports productions, with all these formats handled by a single router frame. This high level of integration avoids video/audio latency issues, and also saves space and simplifies cable management. By employing Miranda’s modular hybrid technology, we can deliver flexible studio and gallery environments that cater for the next generation of 3Gbps 1080-50P and 3D live sport production,” Warden added.
