Netia is showing the latest version of its MAM platform, which allows users to manage all processes within the global production environment, from editing through to post and distribution. According to the company this is achieved through simple, easy-to-manage workflows and task automation, and accessed through one straightforward interface. This gives operators the ability to connect all of their partners and vendors within a single production ecosystem, simplifying the sharing and managing of media assets, says Netia. The latest version includes new features in its metadata management module. The new Metamodel Editor tool enables the user to manage and customise the metadata model structure. The latest release also

time displays
Sing-a-long-a Netia: Netia’s media asset and workflow monitoring tools
includes a recording feature, so users can schedule specific recordings or continuous channel ingest. Video is stored in the MAM database along with corresponding transcript text files, which are generated by a speech-to-text engine. A new monitoring feature facilitates the searching and browsing of these recorded channel feeds, either according to a timeline or through a full-text search. The user can extract, repurpose, and export the relevant video segment, as required. As well as its own stand within the French Pavilion, Netia is co-exhibiting with Globecast in Hall 1. 8.B36f
PoE is just in time Vortex Communications By David Fox
The new Vortex V-400NP range of time displays has PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) capability, so that they need only a network connection to a PoE switch for power. “This provides huge flexibility in installation and reduces the cost of providing accurate timekeeping as the overhead of installing a mains connection can often be more than the cost
of the display itself, “ said Vortex Director, Ian Prowse. “Sadly, the PoE specification has a power limitation which means that for the time being at least, only clocks with [up to] 100mm digits can be powered over the network, though alternative solutions are available where mains power is difficult to implement.” When using NTP as a time
reference, network delays are important and the V-400N and V-400NP series have algorithms that automatically correct for network latency.
Depending on the application, it can also be important to ensure that the NTP time reference (which can be a public server on the internet) is as closely referenced to GPS as possible; Stratum-0 comes from a master clock directly referenced to GPS and within 10ms of GPS time, whereas a Stratum-1 server which is locked to a Stratum-0 reference can be up to 10 times less accurate (within about 100ms of GPS), and that is before any network jitter and delay is considered. 11.G11
