Capital Networks Ltd. (CNL), Markham, ON, Canada, a global provider of broadcasting and digital-signage software, has enabled CBC (Markham, ON, Canada), Canada’s national public broadcaster, to roll out its CBC News Express broadcast service to five major airports, including Toronto Pearson Intl. Airport. The Audience system, CNL’s digital-signage solution, provides airport passengers with updated national and local news and weather information from live data feeds.
CBC’s editors create video news content in the corporation’s Toronto Broadcasting Centre. Digital files are managed through Flip Factory video-transcoding software and delivered into the Audience system. Also, local data from news and weather reports are integrated into the system via live data feeds so travelers see local information as soon as it’s reported.
