In today’s media landscape, successful full-time channel distribution over IP demands the reliability of satellite, with the innovative capabilities of traditional IP. When Gray Television and Ryman Hospitality Properties launched Circle, an American country music lifestyle network, they recognized the potential of deploying an IP-based transport, monitoring, and control workflow. The solution enabled the network to have greater flexibility, scalability, and monetization.
