Abstract:
A method and system for airing broadcast signals is disclosed. Preferably, the system includes a production truck interface panel receiving a broadcast signal. A transmission relay circuit relays the signal from the interface panel to a broadcast network, and preferably including a broadcast signal detection circuit, and a signal processing circuit. The detection circuit determines a signal type of the broadcast signal, and the signal processing circuit processes the determined signal type. The system preferably further includes an operations control station displaying the determined type of broadcast signal. The method for airing broadcast signals over the broadcast network preferably includes the steps of providing the broadcast signal to the transmission relay circuit, detecting the broadcast signal type with the broadcast signal sensing and discerning circuit; and reconfiguring the signal processing circuit when the configuration of the signal processing circuit does not support transmission of the determined broadcast signal type.

Claim (Index 14):
A method for airing a broadcast signal over a broadcast network comprising:\n receiving a broadcast signal at a transmission relay circuit of a demarcation and equipment cabinet; determining the broadcast signal type with a broadcast signal sensing and discerning circuit of the transmission relay circuit; reconfiguring a signal processing circuit of the transmission relay circuit when the configuration of the signal processing circuit does not support transmission of the determined broadcast signal type; transmitting the determined broadcast signal type across a communications network to an operations control station; displaying, in a graphical user interface of the operations control station, the determined broadcast signal type; issuing a command from the operations control station to the demarcation/equipment cabinet to reconfigure the signal processing circuit when the configuration of the signal processing circuit does not support the displayed determined broadcast signal type; configuring the signal processing circuit into an analog processing path when the determined broadcast signal type is an analog video signal; producing a digital video transport signal from the analog video signal with the analog processing path of the signal processing circuit; and transferring the digital video transport signal across a backbone of a communications network.
