Interra Systems announced a cloud-enabled integration of its BATON file-based QC solution with the Evertz Mediator X media asset management platform, intended to simplify the automation of quality control (QC) for media developers, producers, and distributors. The integration is designed to enable media enterprises to automatically perform QC checks on media files during each stage of the workflow, on-premises or in the cloud, to provide instant alerts and reports on issues.
"Operational efficiency improves when traditionally manual QC workflows are replaced with high-quality automated QC solutions," said Dan Turow, vice president of file-based solutions at Evertz. "By joining forces with Interra Systems, we help our customers deliver high-quality content on every screen, in the most efficient way possible."
"As an entirely software-based and cloud-enabled solution, BATON ensures content readiness across a workflow through integration with Evertz Mediator X via API," said Vijeta Kashyap, vice president, operations, at Interra. "We look forward to taking the collaboration with Evertz to the next level and providing customers with integrated solutions that lead to better monetization."
BATON is a cloud-enabled QC solution designed to provide quality checks, enterprise-wide scalability, and verification efficiency. Quality checks include subtitles and closed caption verification, audio language identification, PSE correction, and loudness detection and correction.
The Evertz Mediator X media asset management and workflow platform, with its integrated Playtime multichannel playout and Pilot studio control options, includes tools to repurpose and deliver multiformat content.
The integrated solution will be showcased at the 2018 NAB Show in April in Las Vegas.
