    Chellomedia’s Netherlands-based broadcast facilities provider, Digital Media Centre (DMC), has expanded its OmniBus Colossus installation with eight additional channels, making it ready for the imminent transfer of its National Geographic TV playout operations.

    Chellomedia provides European playout for National Geographic TV in Benelux, Scandinavia, Romania, Poland and Central Europe. The installation of eight new SD Colossus channels brings the total to 18 channels added since the launch of Chellomedia's new server-based playout platform two years ago. Chellomedia also broadcasts two HD National Geographic channels and provides playout for The History Channel, Universal and MGM on the Colossus platform.
