Beijing Broadcasting Television Station (BRTV)<\/strong>, one of China\u2019s leading provincial broadcasters, transformed 16 previously isolated SDI studios and OB production workflows into a unified NDI-based IP production infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Supporting daily news production, large-scale live programs, and major national events, BRTV required a more flexible and collaborative production workflow to support increasingly complex broadcast operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather than completely replacing its existing SDI systems, BRTV chose to gradually transition toward a scalable IP workflow with Kiloview\u2019s NDI solutions while maintaining compatibility with its current broadcast systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Challenges: Breaking the Limits of Traditional SDI Production<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As production demands continued to grow, BRTV\u2019s traditional SDI workflows became increasingly difficult to manage across both studio and OB production environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Studio Production<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Isolated Studio Workflows<\/strong>:\u00a0BRTV\u2019s 16 studios operated on separate SDI systems, limiting signal sharing and cross-studio production. Large productions often relied on temporary cabling and manual coordination.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Limited Flexibility for Field Contribution:\u00a0<\/strong>Field contribution workflows depended on fixed transmission links and complex deployment, making live production and breaking news coverage slower and less flexible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Complex Signal Routing and System Expansion<\/strong>:\u00a0The existing SDI workflow relied heavily on point-to-point routing and extensive wiring, making signal management and future expansion increasingly difficult, especially for larger-scale and 4K workflows.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    For OB and Remote Production<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Limited OB Connectivity and Mobile Scalability:\u00a0<\/strong>Outside broadcast workflows relied on fixed fiber transmission and hardware-heavy deployment, limiting flexibility for agile and mobile production scenarios.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Barriers to Modern Production Workflows:\u00a0<\/strong>The existing system was not designed for remote production or multi-platform content delivery. Live contribution workflows for breaking news were also slower and less efficient than modern broadcast demands required.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      These limitations made it difficult for BRTV to support more scalable IP-based production workflows in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Solutions:\u00a0<\/strong>Building a Unified NDI-Based IP Production System<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      To modernize production workflows while maintaining compatibility with its existing SDI systems, BRTV deployed Kiloview\u2019s NDI solutions after extensive workflow testing and validation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      By combining flexible modular deployment, centralized NDI signal management, and seamless SDI-to-NDI integration, the new workflow allowed BRTV to gradually transition toward a more scalable and unified IP production environment without disrupting ongoing broadcast operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
