The Application of Disk-Based Video Servers in News and Sports

The pressures on broadcasters to cope with a rocketing demand for news and sports programs from a modern day audience intolerant of lateness, mistakes, and amateur presentation are immense; however, there is an increasing expectation that the new disk technology will dramatically ease the burden. This paper looks at the impact that available disk technology is currently making on the production processes of TV news and sports. The choices available are measured against the imposing demands of the broadcast environment, and the ability to provide an integrated solution is assessed.
