“In order to stay ahead of the game as we continue to serve a host of U.K. and international broadcasters, we also need to stay ahead of the technology curve with tools that can help us deliver highly complex graphics with a fast turnaround,” said Laurie Beaumont, head of graphics at MOOV Ltd. “We’ve enjoyed a close partnership with ChyronHego for well over a decade, so we knew PRIME would give us the flexibility, power, and ease of deployment we need to support our clients as they continue to expand their UHD and HDR workflows.”
MOOV began working with BT Sport in 2013 to deploy a strategy and delivery platform for the broadcaster’s UHD service based on ChyronHego’s flagship LyricX graphics creation and playout solution. In early August, BT Sport launched an all-new channel, BT Sport Ultimate, offering pictures and sound in UHD, HDR, and Dolby Atmos.

Designed for versatility, ChyronHego’s PRIME platform stacks an array of diverse applications into a single 4K-ready authoring and playout solution. Configurable as a solution for character generation, production clip playing, or touchscreen and video wall graphics, PRIME helps broadcasters of all sizes present more visually compelling and editorially rich programming. Driven by the latest version of ChyronHego’s most powerful rendering engine, PRIME is the next generation of the pioneering ChyronHego real-time graphics solutions for sports production. Scalable to emerging technologies and industry standards, the latest version of PRIME maintains an end-to-end HDR workflow from canvas design to output. With built-in SDR and HDR cross-conversion, there’s no need to recreate legacy content.
