NETIA at IBC2008

IBC 2008 : September 12 / 16 - Stand 8.C62 Amsterdam

Manreo Range

At IBC2008 NETIA will highlight its ManreoTM software range, designed to maximize productivity gains in media asset management and use of rich media, which can then be repurposed and published to multiple platforms, including mobile devices.

Hypercast IP Recorder and Hypercast IP Player Modules

Shown for the first time at NAB2008 and now making their IBC debut are NETIA's new Hypercast IP Recorder and Hypercast IP Player modules for ManreoTM. These two new software modules allow Manreo users to simplify the acquisition and distribution of IP-based content.
The Hypercast IP Recorder and Hypercast IP Player modules reduce the complexity of taking SDI video from the camera to editing by eliminating the need for a video server. A simple file server and a facility's existing architecture can instead be leveraged for acquisition and delivery of digital video. The Hypercast IP Recorder streamlines acquisition of SDI content, accepting the encoded IP stream and delivering media to the file server, where it's available for editing, archiving, and automatic indexing.
The elimination of the video recorder, video grid, and video encoder reduces overall costs and supports a fast, completely digital workflow with more timely delivery of rushes and replays of live content with delay. A simple computer system can be used for review and quality control.

Warehouse Web 2.0

NETIA will highlight its Warehouse Web Version 2.0 audio and video broadcast and display platform, which provides new services and revenue-generation opportunities for ManreoTMusers. This full-featured software solution provides companies with a system for centralizing, sharing, and viewing audio, image, and video archives, and subsequently broadcasting them across multiple distribution channels (Web portals, mobile devices, ADSL, etc.). Because Warehouse Web 2.0 has been developed using the REST (Representational State Transfer) architecture and includes XML Web Services, it offers up to four easy-to-use interfaces that make the system even more ergonomic and powerful.
Warehouse Web's Catalog Interface offers Manreo users a global view of all files and metadata, along with more powerful searches. The Terminology Interface manages the thesaurus and allows users to add, delete, and modify words and the interaction among words. The Media Interface manages the storage of both audio and video files. Using this interface, users can view various files and file format support. Finally, Warehouse Web's Monitoring Interface lets the user track file conversion and publishing workflows to various platforms, including mobile phones.

Manreo Video Recorder Module

The Video Recorder module within the ManreoTM suite is used to acquire and digitize video from tape. With functionality including start, stop, forward, rewind, ManreoTM Video Recorder controls the VTR and launches the acquisition and digitization (MPEG-2 with MainConcept) process. For TV stations and other media companies with large stores of tape-based archives, ManreoTMVideo Recorder enables migration to lossless and more secure digital storage.
The migration of media libraries to digital is critical to preserving media, but it also can be a very demanding process. This latest addition to the Manreo product line uses the RS-232 and RS-422 protocol to control external VTRs and allows users to connect a jog/shuttle control via a USB port for easy navigation. The operator can watch video as the media is being digitized and even mark in and out points to create a clip or a new video, produced automatically from a series of marked segments.

NETIA's Radio-Assist Suite Provides Radio Ô With Complete Solution for Internet Radio Broadcasting

Web Radio Station From RFO Relies on Radio-Assist^TM's New Stream-in Software and Hardware to Deliver Sounds of French-Speaking Territories via the Web

CLARET, France - July 24, 2008 - NETIA today announced that its Radio-Assist^TM digital audio software range is providing comprehensive functionality for Radio Ô, a web radio station from French broadcast network RFO (Réseau France Outre-mer, or "France Network Overseas"...). Radio Ô broadcasts reflect a diversity of artists from French-speaking territories in the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific oceans, which relies on Radio-Assist^TM to create and deliver programming for Internet broadcast and to provide a dynamic display which includes images and information about the artist and music for the Radio Ô Web site.

"NETIA's Radio-Assist^TM provided us with all the tools necessary to produce high-quality Radio Ô web broadcasts quickly and to provide listeners worldwide with the rich and varied musical offerings from across French overseas territories," said Christian AUGEREAU, Technical Director at RFO. "The intuitive, highly automated Stream-in solution within Radio-AssistTM enabled us to implement a streamlined and cost-effective workflow in taking Radio Ô online."

Producers create Radio Ô web radio content using Radio-Assist^TM and use the software suite's Air-DDO broadcast module along with NETIA's new Stream-in software to capture and encode the music broadcast and voice of the presenter together for delivery to the broadcast server. The Radio-AssistTM Air-DDO GUI simultaneously displays the radio channel along with tools for cueing, playlist modification, recording, and production. NETIA's Stream-in automatically manages acquisition of multiple sources, simultaneous multiformat conversion, and transfer of the audio stream to the server.

Stream-in is a complete solution designed specifically for live and delayed web radio broadcasting. The system captures AES or IP flows and, if required, digitizes and encodes them prior to export in IP (high- and/or low-resolution) format to the target server. Stream-in features configurable settings that allow operators to specify all of the conditions and characteristics of the broadcast including manual/automatic and live/delayed playout; Web site address; encoding format; and type of compression. A variety of output effects, such as a maximizer or equalizer, can be applied to achieve the desired sound quality.

In order to create the most dynamic display for each artist's work Radio Ô is using NETIA's Air-Push . Air-Push is designed for DAB broadcasts and automatically supplies the broadcaster with the data relating to the item (in this case, the song or other music) on air. For each song broadcast, Air-Push sends its metadata (text, DAB, html pages) to a web or DAB server, or straight onto the network. Air-Push has a highly advanced settings function which allows users to choose the type of transfer, channel, or metadata they wish to use or display.

NETIA will be showcasing the Radio-Assist^TM digital audio software range and other advanced broadcast solutions at IBC2008 , stand 8.C62. More information about NETIA and its products is available at www.netia.com.

About Radio Ô

Radio Ô is part of RFO (Réseau France Outre-mer), which is part of the France Télévisions group, along with France 2, France 3, France 5, and the new digital-only France 4. More information about Radio Ô is available at http://radio.rfo.fr.

Australian Broadcasting Corporation Purchases NETIA U-Share to Help Streamline Digital Audio Exchange

CLARET, France - Jan. 29, 2008 - NETIA today announced that the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) will be using the company's U-Share as a solution for streamlining distribution of non-same-day periodic content, and for the exchange of non-critical files for standard use at ABC Radio stations. By enabling delivery of this content over the ABC network when traffic is low, the U-Share network management system will free up bandwidth for fast, immediate delivery of critical content even during the network's busiest times.

In ABC's existing workflow, content is played out over an audio line, either ISDN or satellite, and recorded on one or several receivers or delivered via an ad-hoc file transfer. U-Share will help to address the problem of transferring audio files, such as music and promotions, among those stations more efficiently.

All content being exchanged passes over the audio network or ABC's IP network. Real-time exchanges take place throughout the day, but at "rush hour", the volume of content being transferred can saturate the network. Because users lack the ability to prioritize critical audio information, the exchanges slow down or even stall and are completed at a later date. This can be an issue in particular for the smaller local ABC affiliate stations that rely on IP connections with bandwidth ranging from 128 kbps to 512 kbps. The transfer of audio files could be sluggish in these cases, and each file exchange can consume valuable bandwidth normally dedicated to the stations' Web sites.

In its implementation at ABC Radio, U-Share will allow the broadcaster to plan audio file and metadata transfers through a basic reservation process while maximizing bandwidth usage. Non-critical audio elements that don't need to be transferred immediately will be exchanged by U-Share outside of peak hours. During periods of low activity on the network, such as at night, the increased bandwidth available will be used for delivery of those non-critical files. U-Share streamlines traffic by monitoring and leveraging this free bandwidth.

U-Share will also allow ABC Radio staff to use the Radio-Assist browser to flip through low-quality content stored remotely. Generating only minimal traffic on the network, the user can listen to audio within the remote database and plan a high-quality file transfer for a time when bandwidth usage is at a low. For every file exchange, the user identifies a specific window for transfer. U-Share then determines the optimal way to transfer the file during that timeframe.

More information about NETIA and its products is available at www.netia.com.
