London-based broadcast services company TSI TX is ramping up its playout capabilities with the opening of a new playout facility, which has seen initial channel capacity increase to 32 permanent channels. TSI TX broadcasts channels across Europe on both cable and satellite platforms.

Service enhancements in the new facility will allow interoperability of all file formats enabling broadcasters to deliver content as file transfers over IP from any corner of the globe, providing an open and flexible transmission platform.

The new play-out platform includes a Sports Production Area which has already earned a major contract from BT Broadcast Services and European sports rights marketing agency, Sportfive. The agreement sees TSI TX provide live presentation, voice and edit services for hundreds of football's UEFA Cup 2004/2005 and FIFA World Cup Qualifiers over a two year period.
