Crispin’s NewsWheel solution allows broadcasters
with existing news productions to add a 24-hour
news channel with little investment. The system
offers complete control over on-air programming
and provides support for live news, weather cut-ins
and commercial breaks.
NewsWheel executes multiple active rundowns,
as entered by producers through newsroom computer
systems (NCS.) Crispin’s NewsWheel solution, while
working seamlessly with NCS, switches to studio
output to support live news cut-ins and triggers
master control automation to roll commercial breaks.
Changes in show format and content order are recognized
by NewsWheel and refl ected immediately in the
Crispin playlist. Crispin’s NewsWheel interfaces
to NCS through MOS, serial and FTP methods.
By using existing resources to the greatest extent
possible, NewsWheel provides a cost-eff ective
way for broadcasters to drive new advertising
revenue.

News Playback
Making changes in the tools used to create a
daily newscast can impose serious challenges.
And with the digital revolution, you may be planning
to move from videotape to servers for news playback.
This is one of the most difficult transitions
you can make in the TV business. You will have
to address re-training, non-linear editing and
possibly a digital infrastructure upgrade.
