The Middle East Broadcasting Center (MBC) based in “Media City” Dubai and Bahrain (UAE) selected SeaChange for video systems in support of its growing multichannel satellite television operations. MBC is rapidly moving toward an entirely tapeless facility from content intake through program production and on-air playout.
In 2003, MBC deployed three on-air SeaChange Broadcast MediaClusters for the debut of its news, entertainment and movie networks, and has since launched a children’s network – with content for all produced in-house. This year MBC will move forward with SeaChange’s IP-based MediaClient architecture to produce and distribute its programming. The deployment initially includes four post-production systems and on-air Broadcast MediaClusters. Financial terms were not disclosed.
