The Irish parliament acts active its enormous file

Oireachtas Broadcasting Unit (OBU) integrates a file system without ribbons in the Irish parliament based on servers and Spectrum storage and half -grid of Omneon. The intake of the material from the two Irish cameras and the different commission meetings is controlled and automated from an IBIS system.

Oireachtas Broadcasting Unit (OBU), a subsidiary company of Irish National Archive, will use the storage system and the Omneon asset management and processed platform in the Irish Parliament. This system supplied by the Omneon Eurotek distributor, totally free of ribbons, will allow to have high quality material for its immediate consultation or to make it available to those Irish Broadcasters that demand it.

OBU directly collects on the Omneon Spectrum servers The signals from the two cameras of the Irish Parliament (known as oireachtas) as well as the different meetings rooms of the commissions located in Leinster House in Dublin. The intake of the material is controlled and automated from an IBIS system.

When the Omneon Spectrum intakes a source, a high -resolution copy is automatically generated that is transferred and stored in a 24 -TB half -grid, where the content is accessible for quality control and permanent file. During the intake itself, the omneon Probrowse solution simultaneously creates a low -resolution proxy that is used for medium management, and automation for Browsing and EDL creation.

John Brady, technical director of OBU, commented that “as part of the Irish National Archive, we have the duty to guarantee one hundred percent the reliability of the registration of all parliamentary activity. The Omneon platform offers high performance and reliability in real time, at the same time that its processing power guarantees an automated quality control process and a rapid disposal of EDL. Thanks to this platform we have been able to implement a greater reliability in An efficient workflow based on proxy being fully compatible with multiple editing solutions, while we have taken advantage of a rapid restoration of stored material, reducing space, costs and energy consumption. ”
