From acquisition, Media Ingest can handle a range of delivery formats including MXF, QT MOV, and DPX as individual left/right files or can ‘unwrap’ an interlaced L/R mix combined file.
Built within the established MediaStor architecture, Suitcase TV’s storage systems now operate a fully tailored 3D infrastructure, housing files as individual essence or as combined files that includes all audio tracks with their L/R pair. With up to 64 mono audio tracks with L/R pair, this becomes ample for multi-language, surround-sound and multi-channel audio mixes, all using advanced browse capabilities.
As with the SD/HC versions of ShotLogger, Splice and TrakStak, the stereoscopic video is transcoded to ‘browse’ resolution versions, to permit long-term online storage & remote access to content. Splice also has an ’edit conform engine’ to allow publishing of high-resolution edits, making content ready for craft-editing system such as Avid and Final Cut; with options to publish to a variety of file formats.
Complete the workflow with the MediaXchange, by transcoding media to other formats compliant for playout; with compression types such as MPEG, MPEG-4 AVC, uncompressed (DPX), DNxHD and DV. Finally, export as separate L/R essences or as combined files.
Suitcase TV’s Technical Director, David Atkins comments:
“It was clear that 3D was going to be the future for the broadcast industry and we have worked hard to adapt out current product range to fulfill these new demands.”
