Leitch Joins Panasonic P2 Consortium

Amsterdam--Leitch Technology has announced that its NEXIO TXS and ITS servers and NewsFlash editing systems will support the Panasonic DVCPRO Professional Plug-in ("P2") solid-state memory-based technology. The partnership will allow the companies' mutual customers to streamline their workflow by expediting the movement of media acquired in the field into the NEXIO server shared-storage environment. "Panasonic has chosen to use the industry standard MXF file format for the P2 technology, which fits perfectly into Leitch's open platform strategy, and therefore it is a simple matter to interface Panasonic's technology into Leitch's NEXIO shared storage system" said Tim Slate, director of product marketing for the Leitch server division.
"We are very pleased that Leitch will secure the interface with our DVCPRO P2 series. This will enhance the choice of IT News Gathering ("ING") system to the customer globally," said Mr. Shimozuru, head of Professional AV System B.U. of Panasonic AVC Networks Company.
