With double the capacity to meet growing customer demands, the new MEGAPOD facility in Singapore offers fully automated, end-to-end media processing and monitoring.
The new MEGAPOD facility is located at the office of Encompass Digital Media, at 20 Loyang Crescent, Singapore 508984.
Encompass Digital Media has launched its new US$7 million broadcast monitoring facility, the MEGAPOD in Loyang Crescent in Singapore
The MEGAPOD is a first-of-its-kind multi-channel broadcast monitoring and playout facility with multi-channel and multi-format for linear and over-the-top (OTT) delivery capabilities.
The MEGAPOD can handle up to 250 channels, from ingest to delivery across multiple screens.
The MEGAPOD offers broadcasters a ready infrastructure for expansion, allowing the launch of a new channel every two-and-a-half weeks, provides significant reduction time to any anomalies, and reduces book-to-build time to less than three weeks.
The fully automated, end-to-end central monitoring system is built on the back of iControl – the world’s most advanced, fully automated integrated monitoring and control system.
Together with Encompass Asia’s existing facility, the MEGAPOD offers a variety of robust services with high redundancy, including playout, distribution, digital media manipulation, ad inserts, OTT services, as well as other creative, technical and global archival services.
In addition, the facility houses a post-production studio, giving clients the full end-to-end solution to create and deliver content on the go.
To date, a number of tier 1 broadcasters operating across Asia have indicated plans to take advantage of the efficiencies that the MEGAPOD will generate.
