Snell has rolled out new turnkey channel-in-a-box playout solutions based on its Morpheus automation technology and Integrated Content Engine (ICE), Snell announced.
    ICE supports audio track-tagging strategies from various manufacturers to facilitate the broadcast of different languages. The company said the combined channel-in-a-box solutions were designed for television news, sports, and multi-language playout broadcasters to enable companies to bring new channels to air more quickly and at a significantly lower cost.
    “In today’s cost-driven environment, customers are increasingly looking for affordable playout solutions that will easily integrate into their existing workflows. Solutions must reduce the cost and complexity of playout, while maintaining performance and reliability in critical operations. Our channel-in-a-box packages are tailor-made for smaller-scale operations and applications where versatility, flexibility, and overall cost are critical business factors,” Automation Product Manager Jamie Gatto said in a statement.
