The globally renowned broadcaster set out with the aim of greatly increasing the sustainability of its newsgathering operations while also benefiting from the latest LiveU developments. The driver for long-term sustainability came from both an environment and a workflow perspective, enabling ITV to produce more content from the source as efficiently as possible with notable cost savings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Initiated in 2022, the deployment spans the full video production chain from contribution and production to distribution. Multiple LiveU portable mobile encoders are deployed nationwide for daily newsgathering, including both the LU800 and LU300. Multi-cam LU800 units are used both inside and outside ITV&#8217;s fleet of sustainable news production vehicles (NPVs), which were developed by NEP as plug-in hybrids with onboard batteries. The LU800s can be easily detached from the NPVs to be used as autonomous units, without traditional broadcast truck limitations. The large deployment of LU300s is used as roving units, growing ITV News\u2019 newsgathering potential to more camera operators with a smaller solution, complemented by the LU-Smart mobile app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ITV also takes full advantage of other aspects of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.liveu.tv\/solutions\/ecosystem\">LiveU&#8217;s EcoSystem<\/a>, including its Video Return capabilities, designed to bring video from the studio to the field. Here it\u2019s being used for studio interactions as well as prompting\/cue video when ITV is doing a particularly complex outside broadcast or a presented feed on the road. Audio Connect is also in use, enabling its news anchors and producers in the station to communicate with their team in the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, the broadcaster is using the LiveU Matrix cloud-native IP video distribution platform for sharing and receiving high-quality, low-latency live feeds across the regions and ITN in London, as well as outside the organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to connectivity, LiveU is front and center. Steve Teague, Head of Technical Services for ITV News, said, \u201cLiveU as a platform for this was attractive because it\u2019s fundamentally IP, and all the advantages that brings, rather than DVB-style baseband transmission. It also gave us the opportunity to reframe our relationship with LiveU, moving closer to a service provider model. We wanted a relationship where we could evolve together. This has been fundamental to the success of this project.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Teague said, \u201cIf we look at any given day, the vast majority of traffic is going out via LiveU.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s when it comes to the comms side that the benefits of this refreshed, collaborative relationship really came to the fore. Teague explains, \u201cWhen we looked at the LiveU EcoSystem, we saw a lot of potential, Audio Connect being a case in point. We had a few extra requirements and worked very closely with LiveU, developing a dynamic relationship with us being able to feed back to its developers what was happening in the field rather than in the lab. This greatly sped up the process and made it much more efficient.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Teague said, \u201cWe always had a good relationship with LiveU but now we have a much stronger one. LiveU\u2019s solutions have developed so much, it has absolutely shaped the way we news gather and the way we go live at ITV. The technology is so flexible and we would really struggle to work without IP bonding now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Matt Stringer, Sales Director, LiveU said, \u201cAs Steve says, this project has seen us further develop the way we work with customers, enhancing both our solutions portfolio and the dynamic way in which we can operate. It has been an energizing and successful process and one which will benefit other broadcasters, too. These are cutting edge workflows that allow ITV to continue to push at the boundaries of what\u2019s possible. &#8220;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stringer continued, &#8220;Our products evolve and improve daily based on customer feedback and the growth and position of LiveU in the broadcast market ensures we remain best-in-class.\u00a0The value of this feedback is never taken for granted and means we are always learning what our customers need not just today but for the future.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"767\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ITV2-1-1024x767.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-344563\" style=\"width:827px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.liveu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ITV2-1-1024x767.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.liveu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ITV2-1-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/www.liveu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ITV2-1-768x575.png 768w, https:\/\/www.liveu.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ITV2-1.png 1273w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The UK broadcasting stalwart has created a new, more sustainable workflow with LiveU at the heart to further enhance the dynamism of its news coverage Expanding its already extensive relationship with LiveU, ITV News is deploying technology from across LiveU\u2019s IP-Video EcoSystem for efficient and flexible live newsgathering.
