wTVision brings on-air a new African sports channel, from Zap AngolaFebruary 12, 2016


wTVision and Medialuso, working for ZAP Angola brought on-air the TV channel Zap La Liga. This channel is broadcasting, in SD and HD, all the matches of Liga BBVA, the Spanish Football League, with portuguese commentaries. In order to give the best viewing experience to their customers, this channel, beyond the broadcast of the live matches, rebroadcasts that games as well as historical matches of past seasons and special sports analysis  programs  throughout the week.

With an extremely short time period to make this channel available to the Angolan viewers, wTVision showed once again one of its main advantages: the ability to efficiently provide an end-to-end turn-key solution to its clients.

All the MCR technology used in this project was provided by wTVision, namely:

  • ChannelMaker-in-a-Box (with video server and graphics platform)

  • wTVision Media Tools for the ingest and trim of the videos, received via satellite and File Transfer Protocol

  • wTVision’s MAM system (wTVision Media Manager)

The workflow processes includes the introduction of live portuguese commentaries, in real-time and live graphics in the received feed.

When there are simultaneous games, wTVision broadcasts one of the matches and records the second one. If necessary, it’s possible to record, using the same process, as many games as the ones that are happening simultaneously. This videos are stored and cataloged by wTVision Media Asset Manager (MAM).
