Tightrope Cablecast CBL-CG330-DVI Channel Branding Server

The CBL-CG330-DVI is Cablecast's character-generation and channel-branding server, the DVI-output version of the CG330. Running the Carousel Display Engine, it builds the community bulletin-board channel - scheduled messages, weather, traffic cams, RSS, and social feeds - and lays on-air branding over playback: a station bug in one corner, bug text in another, and a crawl across the bottom of the screen.

It works alongside a Cablecast video server, which promotes each scheduled program onto the CG's bulletin board automatically, and a genlock input keeps the graphics locked to the channel. Carousel requires one CG per channel of bulletin board; the CG330 is also offered in SDI and server-output versions.
