Enhanced IPV Curator MAM System Empowers Intuitive Asset Retrieval Across Organisations & From Multiple Storage Platforms 04 April 2016
NAB Show Booth N4520
IP-based operation & 4K support showcased at NAB
Cambridge, UK, 4 April 2016 On its NAB booth (N4520), UK-based media asset management and technology specialist, IPV, will demonstrate the latest advances in its Curator Media Asset Management (MAM) system. Responding to seismic changes in broadcast content access systems, IPV will demonstrate how relevant accurate metadata materially impacts the retrieval rate for valuable assets leading to greater opportunities for their monetisation. Showcasing the latest enhancements to Curator, IPV will demonstrate how automated and manually added metadata underpins the next generation of archive management systems.
Curator is an intelligent archive management environment where media assets are migrated through storage tiers dependant on their age, temporal relevance and priority. The system's in-built intelligence ensures that assets reside on the most appropriate storage media from on premise systems to the Cloud. Aligned with this intelligent storage is predictive retrieval, which provides a number of facilities to different scenarios: in a dynamic news-based environment, Curator allows easy re-use of media assets thereby increasing their value in these fast turnaround workflows. Retrospectively, Curator enables the easy re-use/re-purposing of media assets on the web and within other programmes or advertising campaigns.
If you can't find a media asset when you need it, then effectively you don't own it, stated Nigel Booth, EVP Business Development at IPV. With the latest enhancements to Curator, we empower users across an organisation to find and retrieve content wherever they are and from within multiple storage platforms quickly and intuitively.
IPV responds to broadcast market drivers
IPV Curator is a configurable network of powerful services designed to manage media workflows. It can store video and audio data, images, project sequence timelines and scratchpads. In addition, IPV has developed a number of configurable interfaces to the system, including popular third-party platforms such as Adobe Premier Pro CC which will be announced at NAB (see separate news announcement).
Also at NAB, IPV will showcase how Curator responds to industry trends such as the drive towards IP-based operations and the emergence of Ultra High Definition (UHD) broadcasts.
Curator is the product of an eight-year development initiative at IPV: from day one it has been configured as a collaborative software-only product running on standard IT servers. IP-based operation has been a cornerstone of its proposition throughout its development, so at NAB, IPV will demonstrate how this advanced MAM system is strategically positioned to help broadcasters and facilities that are looking to migrate to IP-based operations.
4K support will be another focus for IPV at NAB. Curator's codecs are format agnostic, so 4K support is straightforward for this system. At NAB, IPV will demonstrate the sophistication of its 4K proposition, as well as revealing its strategic UHD roadmap to 4K, 8K and beyond.
