Bridge Media Networks, which operates the NEWSnet and Sports News Highlights networks, has adopted Actus Digital’s advanced monitoring solution to enhance its broadcast operations.

The goal is to maintain high-quality content delivery across multiple platforms by implementing a centralized monitoring system.

Hybrid Distribution Model

The networks, NEWSnet and Sports News Highlights, are distributed through both OTT platforms and various broadcast stations nationwide. This hybrid distribution model requires efficient monitoring and management, which led Bridge Media Networks to select Actus Digital after evaluating several other options.

Centralized Multiviewer and Automated Alerts

Eric Wotila, President of Bridge Media Networks, emphasized the need for a centralized multiviewer to monitor the distribution network. Actus Digital’s solution was chosen for its robust features, including automated alerts that allow the network to address potential issues promptly.

Remote Access and Efficiency

The Actus Digital system provides remote access to monitoring tools, which improves operational efficiency. The platform’s browser-based interface enables team members to oversee the entire network from any location, making the process more streamlined and effective.

Transition from Manual Monitoring

Previously, Bridge Media Networks relied on manual monitoring, which was less efficient and provided limited notifications of issues. The Actus QA Compliance Logger offers a significant improvement by allowing remote access to all stations from a single interface with comprehensive monitoring and alerting capabilities.

OTT Monitoring Capabilities

As Bridge Media Networks continues to expand its presence on OTT platforms, the ability of Actus Digital’s system to monitor OTT feeds and provide insights into stream quality and download performance was a key factor in its selection.

The decision to integrate Actus Digital’s monitoring solution reflects Bridge Media Networks’ commitment to improving its broadcast operations. By adopting this technology, the company aims to maintain its leadership in providing news and sports content to its audience.
