Amagi, a global leader in cloud-based technology for broadcast TV and streaming TV, announced that Tarima TV, the first Latin concert channel has partnered with Amagi to bring a superior concert experience of Latino music on TV to music lovers and the larger Hispanic audience in the US. Available as a 24×7 linear TV channel, Tarima TV airs concerts in Spanish with exclusive content, covering the main genres of Latin music. Tarima TV has a schedule of concerts recorded in various parts of the world, behind the scene footage, exclusive interviews and greetings, and events and original programs produced in-house by a team of producers specialized in the music industry.

For Tarima TV, Amagi deployed its award-winning cloud playout platform, CLOUDPORT, to create a feature-rich linear music channel experience.

“The benefits of moving our entire broadcast operations to the cloud was already clear to us. However, we needed a platform that could give us the technology edge to add more vibrancy, color, and vividity to our programming through attractive and compelling graphics features. After all, we are a Latino music channel and our viewers expect to see us bring to life the underlying spirit and culture to a TV screen”, said Leiyan Cotayo, co-founder, Tarima TV.
