Case Study: Football Show Hits the Mark Thanks to New Data Center

From Avocent Corporation
 

 
Vienna. October 2004. The thought of a Saturday evening with no football on the box is unimaginable for millions of fans. And a football show with technical problems is inconceivable for producers and directors. A single 90-minute sports programme can contain dozens of match reports, interviews, graphics and live studio discussions. But what football fans never get to see is the data centre working away behind the scenes between the opening and final credits. ATVplus, Austria's only commercial national broadcaster, has been televising the country's Bundesliga matches since the current season started. Fans meet up regularly at ATVplus on the football show Volltreffer ('Back of the Net!”), for which a brand new studio was built just a few months ago. When Max Schmiedl, presenter of Volltreffer, and his team go on air, they place their complete trust in the first class technology solution supplied to ACT-Media Produktionsservice-GmbH by the Vienna-based system vendor AMEC Medientechnik Vertriebs-GmbH.
