Local news station WPSD-TV in Kentucky Upgrades News Operations with Bitcentral Technology
WPSD-TV, a leading television station in Kentucky owned by Paxton Media Group (PMG), has partnered with Bitcentral to modernize and streamline its workflows for the fast-moving multiplatform media landscape. This partnership aims to support WPSD-TV's digital transformation and equip them with the tools needed to stay ahead of the curve.
The chosen Bitcentral solutions include ViewNexa Channels for FAST channels and Core News Suite for a "produce once, publish many" workflow. ViewNexa Channels will help WPSD-TV efficiently distribute live and on-demand content, while Core News Suite is set to reimagine WPSD-TV's news production process.
Bitcentral's Fusion Hybrid Storage (FHS) has also been adopted for WPSD-TV's media library. FHS is a smart, scalable storage solution that supports high-res video, metadata, and proxies without overwhelming the station's infrastructure. This allows WPSD-TV to efficiently manage their growing media library and focus more on delivering outstanding local news and storytelling.
To future-proof master control operations ahead of relocating to a new facility, WPSD-TV has installed Bitcentral’s Central Control system. This system offers automated feed recording, traffic system integration, and real-time monitoring, ensuring seamless operations in their new location.
The adoption of Bitcentral's FHS and Central Control systems are part of WPSD-TV's ongoing digital transformation. Working with Bitcentral has given WPSD-TV peace of mind, knowing they can rely on their systems and support for many years to come. Bitcentral's technology has allowed WPSD-TV's team to focus more on delivering quality local news and storytelling, rather than being bogged down by technical issues.
