Some of what’s going on in TV broadcasting would have been impossible just a few years ago. For example, stations are now converting their news or event ticker text to speech on a secondary audio channel for the visually impaired, bringing them information never before heard. We can now normalize audio levels within an MPEG transport stream.

Cobalt started as a video accessories company in the analog broadcast era, but has taken on serial digital and now transport stream processing. Come see what solutions they have to offer. Cobalt Digital visits Chapter 36 Wednesday, March 16 at 12 o’clock noon at KGTV, 4600 Air Way, San Diego to discuss these technologies and more. Cobalt will provide lunch.
