For Immediate Release
NUGEN Audio Joins U.K. Broadcasters’ Digital Production
Partnership (DPP) Compliance Program
LEEDS, U.K. — July 8, 2014 — NUGEN Audio today announced its participation in the Digital
Production Partnership (DPP), an initiative founded by U.K. public service broadcasters to help
speed the transition to fully digital production and distribution for television. NUGEN Audio joins
other leading broadcast equipment manufacturers who are working with the DPP and the
Advanced Media Workflow Association (AMWA) on a new compliance and certification program,
AS-11 DPP.
Through its Technical Standards group, the DPP is leading an effort to standardize technical and
metadata requirements within the U.K. broadcast industry to ensure digital video content can be
easily and cost-effectively distributed to audiences via multiple platforms. A subset of the
Technical Standards group, the AS-11 DPP program was launched to help further
interoperability and create governance around AS-11 DPP compliance in products.
As a member of the AS-11 DPP compliance and certification program, NUGEN Audio is helping
to develop quality assurance criteria for the AS-11 DPP specification. Specific goals of the
program are to reduce interoperability issues when creating and using AS-11 DPP files, provide
industry assurance through a consistent expectation of quality and reliability with AS-11 DPP
products, determine a compliance test that products would need to meet in order to be
considered “DPP compliant,” and improve file-based testing knowledge and communications
between U.K. broadcasters and manufacturers.
“Our participation in the DPP Compliance Program is the latest example of our ongoing
commitment to supporting our customers in the ever-evolving landscape of loudness
compliance,” said Jon Schorah, creative director, NUGEN Audio. “As file delivery day
approaches in the U.K., NUGEN Audio users can be assured that we will be supporting the AS-
More…
11 DPP specification from the outset, with products such as LMB, our Loudness Management
Batch processor.”
