Elemental Technologies has announced that Alarab TV, a soon to launch Arabic-language news channel, has chosen Elemental video processing systems for its live linear and multiscreen TV service offerings.
Image quality and high availability are both extremely important to us as we aim to offer the very best level of service possible to our end-viewers, said Jamal Khashoggi, general manager at Alarab TV.
For these reasons, we chose software-based solutions from Elemental, which are able to meet our stringent demands for service quality.
The Alarab TV broadcast workflow includes multiple Elemental Live encoders paired with Elemental Conductor management systems to ensure seamless input failover. Active Elemental Live instances are used for processing live video source into H.264 streams for both linear television and multiscreen delivery to smartphones and tablets supporting the HLS protocol. Video streams also may be stored as archives for video-on-demand (VOD) retrieval and catch-up TV content. Elementals regional channel partner in Dubai, Qvest Media, designed and installed the entire broadcasting infrastructure.
We share Alarab TVs strong dedication to quality, reliability and innovation, said John Nemeth, VP of sales EMEA for Elemental.
We are very pleased that Alarab TV has chosen our video processing and management software as they expand their services across the Middle East and around the world.
