“We have replaced our SD infrastructure with a full HD one as we will be offering a wide range of HD services in the near future which may also include more HD channels. Magna Systems have provided us with a comprehensive HD video server platform that includes a 3-node SeaChange® Broadcast MediaLibrary™ BML24000EX server, 2 SeaChange MediaGateways, 7 mcl6004 MediaClients and 4 mcl6012 MediaClients.

“We also needed a technology partner who we could rely on for service and support, which was why we chose Magna Systems.”

We haven’t had any failures in the past with SeaChange equipment which is a very big plus. The new SeaChange architecture is impressive and the RAID squared storage further increased our confidence levels. We also needed a technology partner who we could rely on for service and support, which was why we chose Magna Systems. The new system allows us far more functionality and flexibility than before. We now have immediate access to HD ingest and playback, the ability to take in different codecs and our entire operation is more file based thanks to the wonderfully efficient SeaChange Media Gateway. I have to also make special mention of the Magna Systems team. It has been very rewarding working with them on this project. Their knowledge and expertise around broadcast environments is truly excellent.”
