Casablanca Online, one of Brazil's leading live broadcast service providers, has selected its Kyrion encoder and decoder from Atem to meet the growing demand for high-quality video processing. In this case, you have chosen the Kyrion encoder, based on the Stream compression engine Ateme's fifth generation, which provides the highest video quality at minimum transmission speeds with minimum latency.

Kyrion will enable Casablanca to enhance its sporting event contribution services, including the major football championships in Brazil and South America. Kyrion DR5000 is a Single channel multicodec IRD, offering easy setup, fast signal locking, and the industry's best input robustness.
