ProSiebenSat.1 Media SE is a media and digital group that is currently in the process of building new studios. In the new infrastructure, the company has implemented EVS solutions for asset management —MediaCeption Signature— and live production, replays and highlights —LiveCeption Signature—.

The new broadcasting studio will be part of the new campus, consisting of three buildings designed to accommodate approximately 1,700 employees from mid-2023 onwards.

“The move to our new campus is an opportunity for us to completely revamp our day-to-day operations,” said Holger Schwenk, Vice President Playout & Production Solutions at ProSiebenSat.1 Tech Solutions.

Offering a deep insight of this movement, Holger continues, “We were looking for a rock solid, fail-safe solution that would help us maximize our live production workflow with the ability to easily scale up to support our future growth.”

EVS’ XT-VIA and XS-VIA production servers will allow the production team to ingest multiple live feeds in various video formats. At the same time, the EVS setup allows for transition path to IP. These serves support standards like ST 2110 and NMOS.

For the live PAM, ProSiebenSat.1 has chosen to rely on MediaCeption Signature solution. LSM-VIA systems will offer advanced functionalities for replay operators and access to content. Replay operators will also benefit from transfers of content thanks to the XNet-VIA 10-Gbps bidirectional Ethernet-based network.

Nicolas Bourdon, Chief Marketing Officer at EVS concluded: “With our comprehensive solutions, ProSiebenSat.1 will benefit from a simplified production architecture that will help them increase the speed and flexibility of their operations as well as ramp up the value of their productions as it begins its new phase of growth and development.”
