Why verifying that feeds are in sync is not the same as verifying they are the right feeds.
Your dashboards show green. Your viewers are tweeting about buffering. The problem isn’t your monitoring, you’re just watching the wrong half of the chain.
When alarms start firing, every second counts. But cross-referencing data across separate monitoring tools to find the root cause eats up precious time.
TAG customers owned some of the world’s biggest broadcast moments in 2025. From FIFA to global news to multi-country streaming – here’s how they pulled it off.
Discover how TAG Video Systems and Matrox® ConvertIP are extending software-based IP monitoring from MCR to PCR. This guide explores how ultra-low-latency ST 2110 to HDMI conversion enables real-time visualization, agility, and precision in live production environments.
The IBC 2025 discussions confirmed a market under immense pressure: media companies must deliver more content, with better quality, for less operational cost. This environment signals the Third Generation of IP Workflows, moving past experimentation to strategic execution. As TAG Video Systems’ Kevin Joyce noted, the focus is now on pure-play cost reduction and critical quality differentiation. Our response is the Realtime Media Platform, featuring the QC Station for integrated deep analysis, Content Matching for absolute certainty, and the Group Lens for faster root cause analysis, proving monitoring is now the essential strategy for modern workflow efficiency.
At the SVG Transport Panel in New York, TAG Video Systems joined industry leaders from ESPN, Net Insight, and Tata Communications to explore how monitoring and visibility define the future of remote production. The discussion highlighted that as REMI workflows scale globally, confidence in every stream depends not just on connectivity – but on real-time insight, synchronization, and robust signal health monitoring.
Explore how the Media Exchange Layer (MXL), developed under the Linux Foundation and EBU’s DMF framework, enables real-time, in-memory media exchange across software-based broadcast workflows. Learn how TAG Video Systems is helping broadcasters achieve flexibility, lower latency, and vendor-neutral interoperability in next-generation IP production environments.
The broadcast industry is navigating significant technical challenges as IP-based workflows become standard, requiring effective monitoring to maintain quality while managing complex systems and protocols. Media companies face practical challenges integrating streaming and OTT platforms alongside traditional infrastructure while viewers – with more choices than ever before – demand consistent, superior experiences.
