Agility Broadcast
Adopt efficient, flexible IT-based digital media workflows without sacrificing reliability or quality.
Anystream Agility Broadcast allows broadcasters to automatically convert and exchange media between non-linear editing systems, play-to-air servers, news production systems, streaming and Web servers in any major digital format - including MPEG-2, DV, OMF, MXF, H.264, VC1 - in SD and HD.
Agility's modular design extends automation to other broadcast workflows, such as ingesting news content from distribution networks or remote journalists, frame-accurate proxy generation, HD up-conversion, Web publishing and more.

Eliminates analog-to-digital conversion steps and speeds time-to-air.
Re-wrapping of compatible media files
Preserves the quality of original content and speeds media conversion processes.
Closed caption and V-chip ratings
Substantially reduce production time by inserting closed captioning and V-chip ratings into broadcast formats without using baseband video.
Supports SD and HD workflows
Intelligent HD up-conversion and down-conversion enables the transition to HD using the same automated tapeless workflow.
Automatic proxy generation
Streamline production review and approval with time code burn-in to generate frame-accurate proxies.
Advanced scalability & failover management
Efficiently scales output volume while providing the fastest performance across any number of servers. Automated failover provides 24x7reliability.
