Praha TV. Live graphics for a five-hour election broadcast.
Bringing live graphics into the broadcast workflow
Praha TV was preparing a five-hour special broadcast covering the 2026 Czech elections. Having already used Stream Circle for playout, the broadcaster introduced Tweenly On Air to manage live graphics during the production.
Unlike more traditional setups, where graphics are integrated through a production switcher, Tweenly On Air was integrated directly with Stream Circle. With both products developed by the same company, Praha TV could introduce live graphics without having to manage a separate integration project.
A simpler way to control live graphics
For the election broadcast, Praha TV became the first customer to use a new grid-based interface in Tweenly On Air during a live production.
The interface allowed operators to organize and preview prepared graphics, edit text when needed, and bring graphics on and off air directly from the grid.
Two types of graphics were used throughout the broadcast: a persistent “Volby 2026 živě” title and lower thirds identifying individual speakers. Two operators managed the graphics during the five-hour production, testing how the new interface supported real broadcast operations.
Developed together with broadcasters
Praha TV is among the first early adopters of Tweenly On Air. Before the election special, the broadcaster had already completed three live test broadcasts, helping the teams refine both the technical setup and the operational workflow.
For the election broadcast, Praha TV received early access to the new grid interface, becoming the first customer to test it in a live production environment.
The collaboration has also contributed to improvements in connection-status detection and the user interface, helping shape Tweenly On Air around the practical needs of live production teams.
