Chyron’s PRIME Live Platform offers robust, broadcast-quality production capabilities that are flexible and scalable. The platform is environment-agnostic: deployable on-prem, in the cloud, or as a hybrid integration.
We live in fascinating times: increasingly, we live in the era of cloud-based broadcast operations.
Relying on Riedel solutions for over a decade, the All-England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club (AELTC) has steadily expanded its Riedel infrastructure, with the 2021 Wimbledon Championships marking the biggest-ever deployment on the prestigious tournament grounds.
oXyFire Media and Chrome Productions use Quicklink Studio to assist in production of a virtual studio interview between football manager Jose Mourinho in a studio in London, and an interviewer based in a second studio in Dublin, Ireland.

Previously a basic record/play system using a hard drive was considered. This relied on a table linking time codes in the recording with physical addresses so that the drive would access audio data blocks in the right sequence slightly ahead of when they were needed.

The mechanical timescale of a legacy medium such as tape or film has been replaced by a logical timescale.
Leveraging an expansive Riedel media backbone, PLAZAMEDIA GmbH has successfully staged all 51 UEFA EURO 2020 matches for live UHD broadcast on Telekom’s MagentaTV.
