Omroep Brabant, a regional broadcaster in the Netherlands, has adopted QuickLink StudioCall to enhance the integration of remote guests into their production workflow.
Previously, the station used various video conferencing platforms like Zoom and Skype during the COVID-19 pandemic to connect external guests to broadcasts. Seeking a more efficient and higher-quality alternative, the station chose QuickLink StudioCall for its ease of use and reliability.
Benefits of QuickLink
QuickLink StudioCall allows Omroep Brabant to create high-quality video call connections with minimal latency, making it suitable for live broadcasts. The platform is user-friendly, even for non-technical participants, which improves the efficiency of the crew’s time and resources. Jasper de Bruijn, Media Technology Specialist at Omroep Brabant, noted the operational efficiency brought by QuickLink.
Operational Control and Remote Management
QuickLink StudioCall offers extensive configuration options to optimize connections based on guest conditions. Omroep Brabant can send invitations to remote guests via SMS, WhatsApp, or email. Once connected, operators have full control over virtual rooms and device settings through a central web-based portal, accessible globally. The remote management controls enable operators to pre-screen, control, and manage remote guests’ settings, including camera, microphone, speakers, resolution, audio mode, and gain.
Efficient Remote Guest Process
QuickLink StudioCall helps Omroep Brabant identify and adjust for guests with poor internet connections, resulting in significant time savings when introducing remote connections. Jasper de Bruijn highlighted the ability to fine-tune the remote guest process, which has been beneficial for the station.
High-Quality Broadcast Integration
QuickLink StudioCall enables Omroep Brabant to integrate remote guests into their pre-recorded and live broadcast HD-SDI workflows, maintaining the high quality expected by viewers.
