Volicon announced that the Communications Corporation of America (CCA), a station group that operates 20 television stations in Texas and Louisiana, has adopted the Volicon Observer® digital video monitoring and recording system. In a unique application of the Observer's advanced video logging technology, CCA has implemented the system as a powerful yet easy-to-use solution for reporters to repurpose aired news content and post it to CCA affiliates' web sites. 

The CCA stations were previously using an Internet-based solution for recording aired video and posting it to station web sites for on-demand viewing. However, this system did not provide the levels of quality, flexibility, and ease of use that CCA felt it could obtain with an in-house solution. To date, Observer systems have been deployed at KETK as well as CCA stations WGMB in Baton Rouge, La; KVEO in Brownsville, Texas; and KTSM in El Paso, Texas. The Tyler and Baton Rouge studios produce and format content for broadcast by other CCA stations, as well as specific programs for the Web only. As each Observer automatically records every production feed for these programs, reporters and other non-technical users can log onto the system from any desktop computer prior to a broadcast and quickly access specific video clips for encoding and posting to the station's web server. As the newscast goes live, viewers who miss a certain segment of the news can access the clip on demand from the web site just minutes after the broadcast.
