“With the introduction of the ViBE VS7000 multi-screen transcoding platform, Thomson Video Networks has delivered a very interesting new product,” said Torkel Aamodt Thoresen, chief technologist for Telenor Satellite Broadcasting. “In our operation, the VS7000 produces excellent picture quality while at the same time offering critical functions such as blackout management, service monitoring, and flexible DRM handling.”

   The Thomson Video Networks ViBE VS7000 was designed to handle 26 separate services, each formatted, compressed, and ready for multi-screen delivery. The ViBE VS7000, with its integrated management and redundancy system, offers a flexible solution for service expansion. TSBc benefited from this flexibility when its service lineup nearly doubled during the installation phase due to high demand from its customers.
