Muriel De Lathouwer has been appointed temporarily as president of the executive committee at EVS, following the resignation of managing director and CEO Joop Janssen.
Janssen and the Board of Directors mutually agreed to end his term due to differences in view about the implementation of the company s long term strategy. Although Janssen remains available as an advisor, the agreement is effective as of October 14, 2014.
Pierre Rion, chairman of the Board of Directors of EVS said, The entire Board of Directors would like to thank Joop Janssen for his work during the past two years. Under his leadership, the structure of EVS has been strengthened and professionalised, enabling the company to further grow in its four key markets: sports, entertainment, news and media.
Rion added, I have great confidence in Muriel De Lathouwer s capacities to perform this task, in close cooperation with the management team in place.
De Lathouwer is a member of the Board of Directors of EVS and chairs the strategy committee. During her career, she worked for Accenture, was associate principal at McKinsey and a member of the executive committee at Base. She is an engineer from University of Brussels and holds an MBA from INSEAD.

Dalet showcases partner workflows at IBC2014
Dalet Digital Media Systems, a provider of software-based solutions for media organisations, is showcasing, along with its new three-platform lineup Dalet Galaxy, Dalet AmberFin and Dalet Brio key partner integrations and workflows from Adobe, Filemobile, Cinnafilm and Opta.
The Dalet-Filemobile integration brings user-generated content (UGC) into the heart of the news workflow. Newsrooms use Filemobile s geo-specific mobile alerts to geographically coordinate citizen journalists to cover breaking events. Citizens capture and upload pictures or videos via the Filemobile app (iOS and Android) where newsroom staff uses the Filemobile Media Factory to review and organise UGC for potential news packages. The approved material is automatically transferred to the Dalet content catalogue and made immediately available for production along with the newsroom s professionally gathered content.
Dalet Xtend lets Adobe Premiere Pro, Avid and Final Cut editors search, preview and retrieve video assets, EDLs and shot lists stored on the Dalet MAM content catalogue. Editors can quickly access and work on content, and then save their sequences or even the entire projects back to the MAM.
Deeper Dalet-Adobe integration offers advanced functionality, such as edit-while-record, which is ideal for fast-paced news and sports workflows. Other key feature highlights include bi-directional metadata, genealogy tracking, and inheritance of rights. Adobe Premiere Pro projects can also be checked into the Dalet MAM and then checked out by other editing applications, enhancing collaboration across mixed editing environments.
In addition to MAM integration, Dalet s OneCut multimedia editor seamlessly exchanges content, associated metadata and markers with Adobe, Avid and Final Cut Pro NLEs, maintaining workflow continuity among production tools.
Recently announced, Dalet has combined the expertise of AmberFin and Cinnafilm in frame rate conversion, scaling and de-interlacing to create an automated, reliable industrial transcoding platform that works at high performance for domestic, international and internet delivery.
The GPU-accelerated frame rate conversion technology, in partnership with Cinnafilm, delivers fast, high-quality, motion-compensated frame rate conversion. The combination also yields a four-times reduction in the amount of hardware broadcasters need to purchase, install and maintain, and includes a fully featured transcoding and format conversion toolset.
A major player in the sports market, Dalet MAM features enhanced integrations with Avid , EVS and Quantel to provide maximum interoperability across the sports workflow. It also offers support for SportsML, Opta and SMT LWS, ensuring compatibility with industry-standard protocols and data services.
Providing a similar user experience as Dalet Xtend, the Dalet MAM platform integrates with Adobe Anywhere, a collaborative workflow platform that lets users of Adobe professional video solutions such as Adobe Premiere Pro CC and Adobe Prelude CC work together using centralised media and assets across standard networks. The new integration makes it easier to manage shared assets and associated metadata, rights, genealogy and business rules for distribution and archiving locally and remotely.
IBC attendees can see Dalet s technology offerings presented in the Dalet Theater and in the Dalet Tech Zone from 12 and 16 September 2014.
Gearhouse Broadcast advances all OB vehicles
Gearhouse Broadcast, a company which specialises in television broadcast services, is upgrading its fleet of 115 EVS machines worldwide.
Manny Papas, Gearhouse Australia sales and marketing director said, This EVS upgrade puts Gearhouse Broadcast well ahead of the curve. We are aligning all 115 EVS machines in our fleet to the very latest EVS workflows making us one of the biggest EVS providers in the world and giving our clients access to the very best production tools available.
The upgrade includes transferring all of Gearhouse s EVS kit to the latest 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity and means all of its 8-channel XT3 production servers will have on board low res proxy recording. All EVS equipment will also have the latest XFile3 software enabling them to manually or automatically archive content from EVS servers to transportable hard drives, and means they can restore content from hard drives to EVS servers. XFile3 also presents a simpler way of handling file formats and codecs, due to its built-in transcoding possibili
