Playout Management
NVerzion offers an array of hardware servers and software-based automation solutions designed to simplify the acquisition and distribution of baseband and file-based assets from third-party content delivery systems.

Device Control and Database Management
Being able to control all system elements in a file-based workflow is essential for broadcasters. Broadcasters need a reliable method for ensuring that the systems are operating in harmony and a clear view of every single asset in the database. NVerzion’s automated device control and database software makes it easy for broadcasters to control third-party equipment, including video servers, master control switchers, routers, graphics systems, and traffic systems, while keeping databases up to date.
NVerzion’s EMC-NT solution allows you to control all system elements via a network-based protocol that simply links your broadcast operations to your workflow.
Making sure data is accurate is critical. NBase uses an SQL database to ensure that all applications have up-to-date and current metadata information, while NView provides a clear view on all the assets within a given database.
CPIM is a gateway that connects third-party software directly with NVerzion applications such as NBase Database Manager, XPansion archive, storage and distribution manager, NControl playlist, NTime time-driven scheduler, NGest dubbing tool, and others.
Utilities and Monitoring
Knowing the status of various systems in the file-based TV workflow can mean the difference between staying on the air or — worst-case scenario — losing a broadcast transmission. In the area of utilities and monitoring, NVerzion offers reliable broadcast monitoring, machine status, and control automation software that is guaranteed to keep applications running 24/7. NVerzion also provides a convenient solution for logging video material that has aired, a critical operation for any broadcaster.
