Primestream 2014 NAB Show Preview 19 Feb 2014
Its Time To Control It All
FORK Production Suite v4.6
At the 2014 NAB Show, Primestream will debut FORK v4.6, its acclaimed software platform for media asset management and production automation featuring powerful new modules and third-party integrations. FORK v4.6 features Workflow Manager , a new FORK module that allows users to design, control, and automate production processes that span multiple departments and groups within their organizations. This capability improves communication and response time from engineering and support staff, provides a global view of the tasks and processes being worked on, and assigns tasks to specific groups or users while logging every step of the process with information for analytics. FORK v4.6 also includes deep two-way integrations with nonlinear editors like Adobe Premiere Pro (CS6 and Creative Cloud), Avid Media Composer , and Apple Final Cut Pro X. The integrations support edit-while-capture workflows with XDCAM , ProRes , and AVC-Intra empowering sports, news, entertainment, and corporate video operations to use industry-leading NLEs while gaining the benefits of the FORK media asset management and automation platform for I/O, logging, tagging, proxy editing, workflow management, and archiving. FORK also features new archiving workflows with SGL , Quantum , and Atempo enabling FORK users to continue to navigate/browse, search, and filter through content inside Content Navigator even when the hi-res media has been archived and is offline. Other benefits include partial file restore and LTO robotics control. FORK is available for Mac and Windows OS as well as hybrid environments.
FORK Xchange Suite v3.0
The 2014 NAB Show will see the introduction of FORK Xchange Suite 3.0, a major upgrade to the Web and iOS application that provides instant access to content on FORK Production servers. Single and multi-site production operations can now access their media from anywhere to manage, create, and trigger various FORK automations enabling seamless hybrid cloud/ground workflows to interface all technologies such as archiving and popular NLE craft editors. Xchange 3.0 also features a completely redesigned iPad interface optimized for Apple iOS 7.
Among its many new features are:
Xchange Uploader: Allows users to submit raw or finished packages directly into the production environment via a Web-based interface
Xchange Downloader: Allows users to download raw content in order to edit final packages locally, with the ability to choose among multiple qualities to download
Xchange Load Balancer: Allows for distribution of network traffic across multiple servers for added stability and scalability
Multiple video resolutions for video playback: Allows users to play back and select among multiple qualities of video in order to cope with various network conditions
Modular back-end extensions for large-scale deployments: Allows the Xchange back-end to be installed modularly across multiple servers to ensure stability and scalability
Archive Bridge v1.0
Primestream will also introduce Archive Bridge , a new module for the FORK Production Suite that provides tight integrations between industry-leading archival solutions and the FORK media asset management platform. With Archive Bridge, administrators can track the status of all archival requests and analyze the performance of the infrastructure. Archive Bridge is a highly configurable client with a Web-based front end and intuitive user interface. Optimized for both Windows and Mac platforms, it integrates multiple production environments with a central archive point to reduce operational costs by centralizing archival infrastructure in one location and allow disaster recovery solutions for offsite Archival workflows. Statistics Reporting empowers administrators to monitor various performance values of the Archive Bridge.
