Philippe Delacroix, Digigram managing director says, "With eXaudi, Digigram introduces a network centric approach to integrate multiple applications, which currently are already digitalized but show only little operational interoperability. Some of these ‘digital islands’ are radio automation, studio transmitters links, logging, monitoring, content-sharing or program localization. This approach is particularly interesting for big broadcasters and their suppliers, which operate nationwide networks and therefore need to manage interactions between programs, localize programming and advertising, manage remote transmitters, etcetera."Key features include encoding and decoding in various formats (MPEG 1 and 2 layer 2, MP3, MPEG4/AAC+ and others); an embedded matrix, which provides routing capabilities from any input (physical, file or IP stream) to any output (physical, file or IP stream); as well as control and management capabilities based on a SDK and a network API.The eXaudi system is based on open standards, which makes it easy to integrate into software applications and existing IP networking infrastructure : Ipv4 and Ipv6, RTP-RTCP-RTSP streaming protocols, Linux as operating system, MP3/MPEG4/AAC+ encoding/decoding or SNMP. output.
