(Sunnyvale, California--April 20, 2009) Omneon Inc. and Pixel Power today announced a partnership to integrate more complete solutions for their customers. The two companies' collaboration enables delivery of best-of-breed platforms that leverage leading broadcast technologies to their fullest capabilities while maintaining the high level of performance typical of solutions from a single vendor.

"Omneon is committed to satisfying the needs of customers and providing the best solutions for their workflows, and our partnership with Pixel Power enables us to offer the best graphics solutions available," said Geoff Stedman, Omneon senior vice president for products and markets. "In working with such a well-established and accomplished partner, we can give customers the best-of-breed capabilities, performance, and reliability they demand."

The first product of the partnership between Omneon and Pixel Power was announced March 26, 2009. The new MediaDeck™ GX is a complete channel-playout solution that combines Omneon's proven video server playout with the world-class graphics technology that serves as the foundation for Pixel Power's Clarity product line. Also featuring advanced audio processing and the flexibility to operate under the control of the user's preferred automation system, the MediaDeck GX system offers rich branding and master control functionality, making it easier and more affordable for broadcasters to launch new services or to make incremental additions to their existing channel lineup.

"Our partnership with Omneon enables us to ensure that customers who are looking for integrated solutions get the best technology for their needs," said James Gilbert, CEO of Pixel Power Ltd. "In bringing together the proven broadcast technologies of Omneon and Pixel Power, this collaboration both enables the development of powerful integrated platforms and provides greater flexibility for deploying our advanced graphics systems in the broadcast workflow."
