Abstract: For the broadcast TV, cable TV, and direct broadcast satellite TV industries, the use of digital video servers to play video from computer disks instead of from tapes provides the advantages of digital fidelity plus computer-based automation and computer networking for content loading, remote control, remote system maintenance, linking multiple servers together, and for Internet/Intranet applications. This talk describes several potential applications for digital video servers including a High Availability Broadcast Center, a Large Scaleable Network Operations Center, Time Zone Delay and Centralized Spot Insertion or Centralized Near-Video-On-Demand. These application examples give meaning to features that should be considered before acquiring a digital video server as a building block in a total automated solution.
