Jakarta, Indonesia (November 14, 2005) –Three stations in Indonesia’s capital city of Jakarta have gone on air with Sundance Digital FastBreak Automation systems at the core of their operations. All three systems are interfaced with Omneon video servers and Quartz master control switchers.

The stations, ANTV, a national network that selected FastBreak as part of a digital upgrade, and startup local outlets JAK TV and O Channel, have all installed the Sundance automation solution to drive single channel operations. Sundance Digital, Inc.’s FastBreak Automation™ blends the latest in Windows shortcuts and navigation techniques into a highly customizable, automationcentric framework and provides a cost effective package for individual stations operating one to several channels in their facility.

ROSCOR CORPORATION, a leading Chicagobased communications systems integrator, supplied design and build services for all three projects. In addition to controlling the Quartz master control switcher and playout from both VTR and serverbased content, ANTV’s fully redundant system drives a SoftNI subtitling system for synchronous playout and live keying of text over digital video.

JAK TV and O Channel, the two local stations, compete for their share of an upscale 4.5 million household audience in the greater Jakarta area. Equipped with a near identical configuration as ANTV, JAK TV also uses FastBreak to control a Pixel Power character generator for live graphics and subtitling. JAK TV’s programming comes from the U.S., Europe and various Asian countries, with News contributing 10 to 15% of its daily lineup.

O Channel required Sundance Digital to play a unique role in its unusual geographic setup. Due to a scarcity of suitable real estate, O Channel’s media ingest center is separated from its Master Control and transmission facility by six miles, creating a technology challenge. Sundance Digital’s DataMover™ application provided the solution by enabling media at the remote ingest site to be moved via highspeed, point-to-point Ethernet connection and replicated to the Omneon server in Master Control at the main facility for playout.

“We’ve been working with Sundance Digital for many years and they always design a solution to meet any challenge we present to them,” said Paul Roston, president of ROSCOR.

The installations coincide with the recent launch of Sundance Digital’s regional office located in Singapore.
