NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.—The Broadcasting Corporation of the Bahamas (BCB) has selected Bitcental’s Core News suite to enhance the value of its content.
The government-run station began working with Bitcentral four years ago at one of its locations in Freeport. Following a tour of the facility by the nation’s prime minister, the station was directed to enhance and streamline BCB operations in other locations, including its Nassau station, the company said.
In October 2022, Bitcentral integrated its Core News suite, including the Precis, Create, and Oasis modules, into the station’s workflow. The Core News suite offers redundant playback for play-to-air channels, a separate server, and separate playlists for each channel. BCB also uses the suite to playback audio for its radio broadcasts from Zephyr Nassau Sunshine (ZNS), it said.
Precis provides BCB with a reliable news production system that enables a flexible, reliable, and efficient workflow. Precis is compatible with third-party news automation systems, Bitcentral said.
Create enables collaboration by distributing channels in a way that allows anyone at the organization to log, edit, collaborate, and publish videos, it said.
