Sydney – TANDBERG Television announced that GlobeCast Australia has selected the company’s encoders and decoders for all its high definition Contribution & Distribution requirements, which includes the distribution of premium sports like the 2009 Ashes Series Test Cricket to the Southern Hemisphere. GlobeCast Australia, the leading provider of services for International Broadcasters in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands, is also expanding its TANDBERG Television DSNG (Digital Satellite News Gathering) encoding capabilities. In addition, the company is deploying TANDBERG professional receivers for its new GlobeCam miniature camera broadcast initiative, which provides birds-eye-view live video footage from sports events. For the Sydney international teleport, TANDBERG Television has provided its E5782 MPEG-2 encoders for 4:2:0 and highest quality 4:2:2 profile HD video, and the multi-format RX1290 MPEG-2/MPEG-4 AVC decoders. The company’s SM6620 modulators, which support the DVB-S2 standard, are also being used. For DSNG applications, GlobeCast Australia is using the E5740 Voyager MPEG-2 SD and E5788 Voyager MPEG-2 4:2:2 HD encoders, suited for news gathering or world-class sporting events. GlobeCast Australia is also deploying TANDBERG Television’s TT1222 Integrated Receiver Decoders as part of its recently introduced GlobeCam service. GlobeCam uses miniature cameras to broadcast live, onboard action from sporting events such as motor racing, cycling, aerobatics and sky diving. The new service enables broadcasters to put viewers at the heart of the action, like inside a racing car. GlobeCast already has a four year contract with V8 Supercars for GlobeCam and other customers include Macau Grand Prix and TVN Horse Racing.
