Amsterdam, 29 May 2025– Pebble is a group of talented professionals that are passionate about the digital transformation of businesses using the cloud, data and automation solutions.
The group believes in doing things differently with the aim of creating more value. Change for the group is a fact of life.
They now have implemented a complete, software-defined playout architecture for Brazilian broadcaster Rede Minas.
The new system allows much more sophisticated and tailored playout across multiple channels.

Rede Minas is the government-owned public broadcaster for the state of Minas Gerais, in central Brazil. It broadcasts from its production base in Belo Horizonte, across a very large footprint, using terrestrial, satellite and streaming distribution.
Seeking to replace a life-expired playout infrastructure, Rede Minas looked to add functionality, capacity and capabilities with the new solution.
To meet these goals, it selected a turnkey solution from Pebble, including its proven and popular Automation, paired with Integrated Channel devices to replace the legacy playout hardware.
As well as being very cost-efficient, the Pebble Integrated Channel devices save considerable rack space and power consumption with consequent air conditioning.
For the Brazilian Rede Minas, this meant it could expand its output, adding three education channels as well as providing tailored services for terrestrial, satellite and streaming.
Each Integrated Channel device has dual independent outputs, which Rede Minas is using to provide opt-outs for some regions within its territory, to serve local interests and regulation. The Pebble Automation layer ensures that the correct content for each output is loaded and quality checked before transmission.
