VOD Preparation & Staging
One of the pieces of a complete anyVID Solution, and works well in a standalone VOD system
- Manages VOD XML metadata, trailers, and full-length assets
- Automatically sends incoming video assets/trailers to an open transcoder for processing
- Automatically parses incoming XML metadata and correctly associates it with the proper VOD asset
Due to the sensitive nature of the content stored, the anyVID-VM is designed to be installed in your secured network
Summary of Features & Functions
- Automatically scans predefined Watch Folders in near real-time looking for new and/or updated VOD assets to process
- Notifies the Catcher of successful retrieval via API (when required)
- Determines which anyVID-XC units are open and assigns each new asset to one
- Sends VOD trailers/assets to open anyVID-XC units to transcode, then monitors the progress until completion (resubmitting on failures)
- Moves completed transcodes to permanent anyVID-STOR storage, and notifies the anyVID-AC of the completion
- Interprets XML metadata (even invalid and/or poorly made XML data not fully adhering to the Cable Labs Metadata spec)
- Populates title info, season/episode info, ratings info, descriptions, genres, costs, etc. from XML metadata to the anyVID-AC
- Sends all alarms/alerts to the anyVID-AC
