Frequently asked questions
Which feed formats do you support?
SDI, HDMI, NDI, SRT, RIST and bonded cellular, delivered in the exact spec your gallery or playout needs.
What happens if a link drops?
Every production runs on redundant paths with automatic failover, so a single fault never reaches air.
Do you provide camera operators?
Yes. Our vetted operators work with shoulder, studio, PTZ and crane rigs for news, sport and events.
How quickly can you deploy?
Most UK locations can be staffed within 24 hours, and breaking-news crews can often be on site sooner.
Can you cover outside broadcasts?
We run OB units, flyaway kits and remote contribution from anywhere with a power source and a signal.
How is pricing structured?
Transparent day rates and monthly retainers, with bundle discounts of up to 30% for repeat bookings.
