São Paulo, Brazil – June 25, 2024 – A PlayBox Neo team visited Brazil in June to showcase their cutting-edge TV channel branding and playout solutions. Partnering with CIS Group, a trusted systems integrator with 35+ years of LATAM market know-how, they hosted events to connect with industry leaders and potential clients.
“LATAM media content owners and channel managers face the same need as their colleagues around the world to maximize operational efficiency,” comments Felipe Andrade, CIS Group VP of Sales Americas. “PlayBox Neo’s solution allows the entire playout process to be controlled as a coordinated workflow, from ingest right through to on-air or online transmission. Among its strengths are an easy-to-understand graphic interface allowing the entire process to be handled quickly, easily and reliably.”
“We want to thank the CIS Group team for partnering with us and helping to make these meetings a success.” adds Sonya Chakarova, PlayBox Neo Business Development Manager for Latin America. “After successful exhibitions in Europe, the USA, Middle East and APAC during Q2, we found it highly effective to connect with key TV channel managers and service providers in Brazil. We organized sales and technical training sessions with the CIS team, visited our current clients, and met with potential new ones.
PlayBox Neo’s team conducted demos for their clients, highlighting multi-channel playout and IP streaming automation. The integration with ENPS and SNEWS that enables smooth playout operations in the newsroom environment was also presented.
“Our control interface, designed for intuitive use, simplifies workflows from content ingest to transmission. Demonstrations featured our Media Gateway, offering efficient playout routing and decoding via software. Brazilian broadcasters value features like TS Time Delay, enabling flexible playout delays from hours to weeks based on available storage,” details Plamen Chardakliev, PlayBox Neo Broadcast Engineer.
