Media transport
Media transport
For delivery of linear channels as well as non-linear content to required destinations Levira has developed a dedicated fibre-optic Media Delivery Network connecting all major locations in Europe and beyond. Additionally, we provide satellite-based delivery. Our competencies are used mainly for the transport of linear TV channels from the point of origin to the location of TV providers, who deliver services to end-users.
Media Delivery NetworkConnections: Riga (Latvia), Vilnius (Lithuania), Helsinki (Finland), Stockholm (Sweden), Oslo (Norway), Copenhagen (Denmark), Bratislava (Slovakia), Sofia (Bulgaria), Budapest (Hungary), Bucharest (Romania), Frankfurt (Germany) and London (UK). Client specific hand-off points are set up at OSN in Dubai and D-Smart in Istanbul. We offer live content in all these destinations and extend the network consistently.
Point of origin of TV channelsThe primary point of origin of TV channels is Levira’s play-out centre, where we transmit the channels to various destinations, for instance cable television, satellite television, terrestrial broadcasting networks, data and internet service providers.
Optimal solutionsWe transmit signals in formats that allow operators to include the signals in their technical chains with minimum additional processing.
– Uncompressed signals: SDI; HD SDI– Single or multi-program MPEG transport streams through an Asynchronous Serial Interface (ASI) or similar transport streams through IP layer
Quality controlOur service includes real-time monitoring of the quality and status of signals, while storing the necessary parameters for further analysis. All connections are fully reserved to ensure the uninterrupted functioning of the service.
Opt-out
Opt-out
Opt-out (content/ad-insertion) services allow broadcasters to launch local versions of their international or regional feeds, either by adding local promos and commercials or even changing a part of the channel’s content in order to meet the viewers’ expectations on a certain market. The service follows triggers (cue-tones) from the original feed or schedules of the original channel and switches to local content when instructed. In the absence of triggers, the same can be done on the basis of play-out. A combination of full play-out and opt-out service can be tailored on request.
