Case Study: DigitalGlue Delivers an ATSC “Station-in-a-Rack” Allowing Major Station Group to Automate Nationwide Centralized Playout
April 2, 2019
A large broadcast network upgraded its 30+ U.S. stations with DigitalGlue's centralized distribution and playout system, significantly reducing operational costs and improving distribution quality. The "Station-in-a-Rack" solution, installed at each transmitter site, eliminated the need for local studios while maintaining individualized program schedules, local content insertion, and call letter branding. DigitalGlue’s forward-thinking design also provided a path for ATSC 3.0 migration, automated workflows, and compliance with FCC regulations, allowing the broadcaster to save approximately one million dollars per location annually.
