theibcdaily Media management aided by archive apps NOA Audio Systems By Michael Burns
New products to help manage media assets have been launched at IBC. NOA has introduced a new video content tool, mediarc for Web, and released VideoScanner for streamlined video file format handling. The company has also added support in JobDB for a range of modules developed for the mediARC environment. MediArc for Web allows users to access archival content for a large user base, and now features an extension to show video content. It also offers easier navigation based upon an index of shot detected scenes. Video proxy files can be located more rapidly and various video segments can be easily processed to an order basket. Mediarc for Web then exports items in the basket in the required production formats for use in a production asset management system. The new NOA VideoScanner
The quick klik track and dolly
Hillrigs By David Fox Archival Arc: MediaARC for Web features an extension to show video content
decodes a list of dedicated production formats to a lossless compressed mezzanine format. It also produces an index of detected shots and allows for unified handling in the subsequent archiving process. VideoScanner is capable of streamlining the day-to-day TV workflow, and is said to make the production of required file formats more efficient.
The JobDB workflow system can now be enhanced with the ingestLINE module FrameLector, and the actLINE modules VideoFileAnalyser, mediaButler, and VideoScanner.
With the additional module options, JobDB now provides an extended infrastructure for service providers and archives not running mediARC. It allows them to produce video preservation formats and proxy formats in order to achieve a variety of workflows in legacy video archive digitisation. These tools, developed initially for a mediARC environment, and successfully deployed at SRF Sweden, RTV Slovakia and RTV Slovenia, are now available for the jobDB workflow environment. 8.D91
Following almost four years of R&D, Hillrigs has launched its Kliktrak and Kombidolly track and dolly system.
The Kliktrak uses rugged aluminium sleepers, hi- grade aluminium rails, and unique klik-quik rail mounts, which Hillrigs claims will allow users to build a professional track for dolly shots in a matter of minutes. Each sleeper is made
from 40mm x 40mm anodised matt black aluminium box section and supports a standard 62cm width track.
Because the system
weighs relatively little, entire track sections of up to 5m
are easily portable. There are built-in fluid levels at each end to make levelling simple and quick, while flat silicone rubber feet and height adjustable tilting feet are fitted to each end of the sleeper. The three-legged Kombidolly comes with fixed width legs for use with standard track, but it can also be fitted with telescopic legs adjustable from 70cm to 106cm, a telescopic push/pull handle, integral monitor mount, and clip-on Lo-Bowl 75/100mm for very low tracking. The track wheels use special Acetal Polyoxymethylene cushion glides, which minimise friction and can be quickly unclipped for replacement with the included lockable studio wheels. 11.A75
