Archimedia Technology 2015 NAB Show Preview 05 March 2015
News
At this year s NAB Show, Archimedia will showcase products that usher collaboration and critical viewing into the realm of 4K/UHDTV at high frame rates and high dynamic range (HDR). New at NAB is the Iris Media Intelligence family of products for interactive quality control, review, and validation of any media, timed text, or metadata file in a file-based workflow. Iris products work with Archimedia s new Iris Cloud Service to enable instant worldwide collaboration for workgroups of any size and composition always under the content owner s secure control.
Attendees will also see refinements to Archimedia s unprecedented professional media player, now called Atlas, which has become the reference standard for virtually all major broadcast networks and movie studios. Atlas now lets people see 4K 60p and HDR video on the screens they already have.
Innovations such as these have made Archimedia products a staple for major studios, TV networks, and production and post houses around the world.
NEW Iris Media Intelligence : Investigate, Collaborate, Validate
The 2015 NAB Show will mark the debut of Iris Media Intelligence for interactive management, annotation, collaboration, quality control, review, and validation of audio, video, timed text, and metadata files. Now everyone on a project can know when it s right or not and make decisions accordingly.
With Iris, collaboration speeds up file-based workflows, frame-accurate interactive communication eliminates costly rework, and format independence eliminates transcoding steps.
For investigation and validation, Iris includes a professional media player with a captions viewer, test and measurement tools, format template matching, audio region-of-interest zoom, and more. For collaboration, Iris features on-screen annotation and markup, shared notes, approvals and measurements, live chat, and project history for workgroups of any size. Iris timeline-based platform will be the framework for more Archimedia file-based workflow products in the future.
Iris supports hundreds of video, audio, caption, and subtitle formats up to 4K 60p; is always frame-accurate; and comes with Archimedia s renowned personal tech support.

Atlas Professional Media Players Now With 4K 60p and HDR Support
At the 2015 NAB Show, Archimedia will display the Atlas family of professional media players for critical viewing of encoded A/V content on any screen in any format, with new features the industry has requested. The full-featured players support all kinds of video, audio, and caption/subtitle formats, with professional scaling tools to handle everything from the smallest Web video to UHD, 4K, and beyond. The latest version, Atlas 3.1, is capable of playing 4K 60p and HDR-encoded content at full screen, in practically any format and from all kinds of sources and manufacturers via SDI, HDMI, DisplayPort, and DVI to all kinds of screens, all with frame-accurate precision. That capability is a breakthrough for all professionals in the media and entertainment industry from technocrats to producers to executives to archivists to lawyers who until now had no way to view 4K 60p and HDR content outside of the edit suite in which it was created without first transcoding it to a smaller format to suit hardware limitations.
