THREE TEDIAL software products aimed at aiding workflow management on file- based platforms are making their European debut at IBC. Following in-depth feedback from customers Tedial has redesigned the interface to its Tarsys MAM solution. The company said this would further enhance operator experience and provide additional features for cataloguing, editing and exporting media to third-party systems. The new GUI has been specifically designed to simplify collaborative working
between professionals in any media enterprise, the company claimed. Also on show is the Ficus
Web Client, which enables the implementation, monitoring and execution of production workflows in a full web-based environment. The Web Client features proxy editing followed by the automatic creation of a high-resolution version. It thus makes possible tasks such as segmentation of media as well as compliance editing. The company also claimed that the new Ficus Web Client would further simplify business procedures and workflows.
Finally, Tedial is also demonstrating its new enhanced Capture (ingest) application on the stand. The ingest management tool provides full control of a wide range of VTRs and other devices. Capture supports industry standard protocols for routers and includes scheduling features and multiple device control for the likes of MOG mxfSpeedrail, Omneon and K2 servers. It also features a source scheduler application, which enables operators to schedule, access and plan work around any current or future ingest feed. 8.B41
