AVITENG started the works from the ground for the studios, technical offices and rooms. Part of the jobs were furnishing the studio and offices with HVAC, electricity, UPS, data and telephony infrastracture, delivering studio curtains, deploying smoke alarm and fire suppression systems

After establishing the infrastracture, AVITENG deployed a 1080p50 format compliant, sophisticated and streamlined production and transmission environment as Syria TV projected.

Their newsroom automation established an end-to-end rundown management system as it handles the wires, RSS, email, fax, SMS and is integrated with production automation, studio teleprompters and on-air graphics systems. Newsroom system has a good level of social media integration such us receiving information from YouTube; publishing to YouTube (also scheduled publishing); following Twitter users, hash-tags or keywords, tracking; trending topics on Twitter; searching for keywords in Twitter; publishing to Twitter and to Facebook, and also working with Instagram.

Master control automation controls video router, master control switcher, logo inserter and on-air graphics

Traffic and scheduling system is integrated with master control system and MAM. It utilizes scheduled ingests as well.

NLE stations can edit while ingest, and are integrated with MAM and can perform in-place editing. They have on-air graphics NLE Plug-ins for sophisticated results on air.

Production automation is integrated with QC.

MAM system is integrated with HSM so that a smart archiving is established between nearline and offline storages

Production automation provided asset management by indexing media stored in production video servers and manages the non-video asset that is in NAS. Also it has workflow automation of common tasks such as generating proxy media and rendering. The cut editors and newsroom automation users are benefiting from HTML5-based editor, craft/effects editors and publishing to social media.

Syria TV has a fast and robust HD system for capture and fast turnaround of news content for transmission. Production video servers are high performance media servers, namely Always in Record and highlighting/editing of live media for immediate playout. The servers simplify the daily media workflows by referencing all derived clips at video frame level to the original rush media thereby avoiding copying, saving storage, and simplifying media management. Those production servers also provide an additional layer of playout resilience in the unlikely event of an master control servers failure.

As for the turnkey studio lighting systems part of the project, Syria TV chose a fully LED base including ARRI S-30C and S-60C Skypanel softlights, L7-C LED Fresnels, Coemar Ledko D daylight spot profile projectors and Robe Robin 300 motorized LED wash heads. Lighting control network, electrical distribution and suspension systems were installed, commissioned and delivered.
