S-ADM: What It Is, Why It Matters For Next Generation TV Production

S-ADM: What It Is, Why It Matters For Next Generation TV Production

Examining and implementing
S-ADM workflows

Serial ADM (S-ADM) is metadata that describes the elements of an audio program to enable object-based personalization in TV productions. It is defined in ITU-R BS.2125 and is starting to be adopted. This summer (2024), France TV and other European broadcasters will use it for the first time in broadcasts of some large-scale sporting events.

Great audio is essential to keep listeners coming back 

If you are in the radio industry it’s probably not too much of a stretch to say that “sound is everything”. You work hard to develop that signature sound that helps your station(s) to stand out when listeners scan the airwaves. Telos has long recognized this importance and hopefully many of you will already be using products from our Omnia line to do just that. But what if you also want to make your content available on demand? How can you ensure that your podcast audio inherits the same signature sound that is so important in your on-air transmissions, and ensure that it stands out in a crowded market?

Don't put them off, or they might put you off the air

Every broadcast engineer tasked with the care and feeding of a transmitter site likely has a checklist of tasks to perform on a regular basis. The frequency of regular visits will depend on a variety of factors, including accessibility, proximity, time, and whatever else the universe sees fit to hurl at us on any given day.

NGA Metadata Format S-ADM and Jünger Audio flexAI

Serialized ADM (S-ADM) metadata describes the referenced audio to enable object-based Next Generation Audio (NGA) productions.  This white paper introduces our concept to enable S-ADM production workflows in the Jünger Audio flexible audio infrastructure flexAI for Dolby® Atmos distribution. Various audio processors can be added and routed internally to set up different broadcast chains. These processors can run on the AIXpressor and a range of flexAIserver audio processing servers. This allows for meeting various processing power and interfacing capability requirements. Examples of applications:

EAS at the Edge℠ - What does that mean, and why should I care?

EAS at the Edge℠ - What does that mean, and why should I care?

EAS alert distribution finally realizes the benefits of AoIP

Guest editorial by Bill Robertson, VP Business Development, Digital Alert Systems, Inc.

(At NAB Show 2024, Telos Alliance, Digital Alert Systems, and Nautel announced a joint technical collaboration designed not only to complete the all-AoIP air chain but to give broadcasters more control, reliability, and flexibility in EAS implementation. - Ed.)


U.S. Broadcasters are required to provide emergency alerts to their audiences, but many radio stations use IP-based signal distribution — something incompatible with old-style EAS boxes. What is needed is a simple way to interface the real-world over-the-air reception of EAS events, filter and process the messages, and — if necessary — incorporate the alerts into the modern audio-over-IP (AoIP) air chain.
