Reading, UK - January 9, 2008: Chyron (AMEX: CGS) is today announcing that TV Lux, a regional cable television station based in Libramont, Belgium has installed an LEX2 graphics system for its news operation.  The system was installed by Chyron's recently appointed partner in Belgium, AV Group. 

The LEX2 provides TV Lux with sophisticated live graphics for the network's news programmes broadcast in the region, in the French language.  The LEX2, driven by Chyron's breakthrough interFuse™ Lyric PRO, includes seamless creation to playout, real-time 2D/3D animation and two channels with an HD upgrade option.  The system enables operators at TV Lux to generate a number of stylish graphics including animated headlines, lower thirds, over-the-shoulders and coming-ups.
