What challenges are broadcasters facing as they transition from traditional tape-based infrastructures to today’s file-based workflow?
One of the pivotal challenges facing broadcasters is interoperability. There are several standards appearing on the market to help solve this problem yet not one solution exists to meet consumers for content availability on new and diverse platforms. Today, consumers want to consume media whenever they want, wherever they are and broadcasters must quickly tackle the steep learning curve to deliver content on new platforms if they want to generate new revenue streams and keep in step with consumer demands.
