The National Broadcasting Corporation of Papua New Guinea has completed a production modernisation led by Magna Systems. The project moves daily operations away from tape and manual media handling into a shared file-based environment.
EditShare shared storage and media-asset-management components sit at the centre of the design, with disk archive, a high-speed network, Apple editing systems and backup and redundancy provisions. The workflow covers multi-source ingest, editing, playout and archive rather than modernising only one department.
For a public broadcaster, the main value is operational continuity and access: material can move between production stages without repeated physical transfer, while central search and archive functions reduce dependence on individual tapes. The system is also intended to provide a foundation for later HD and digital-service expansion.
The published account does not disclose storage capacity, network bandwidth, redundancy topology, project cost or measured performance. Those details are important for judging scale and resilience, so the report confirms completion but not a full technical acceptance test.
