At NAB 2023 Telestream will unveil new product innovations to streamline the creation and production, distribution and monetization of video content.
Highlights will be the unveiling of Telestream Content Manager, a next-generation system leveraging both on-prem and cloud storage, and PRISM MPP, a multi-format rasterizer purpose-built for post-production. Telestream will also introduce a software-only version of its Lightspeed Live Capture solution, showcase Qualify, the world’s first truly cloud-native QC service, and demonstrate its revolutionary iQ architecture that enables cloud-native video quality monitoring for emerging workflows migrating to the cloud.
“Digital transformation is driving exciting innovation across media and entertainment workflows, and we want to ensure our customers can take full advantage,” said Jon Wilson, President and COO Telestream. “We’re focusing the vast capabilities of our company on delivering software-centric and cloud-native solutions to give content owners, broadcasters, and video service providers the flexibility and tools they need to automate, optimize and scale their operations.”
Telestream Content Manager next-gen solution for both on-prem and cloud storage
The new Telestream Content Manager provides a single point of access for content across an organization’s entire storage ecosystem, including cloud and on-prem storage. Built on the DIVA Core technology, it is tightly integrated with the Telestream workflow orchestration tools, as well as supporting all major MAM, PAM, and automation systems.
PRISM MPP: Purpose built for post-production, remote workflows
The Telestream PRISM family now includes three new models, extending the line of software-defined monitoring instruments to address post-production users requiring high-end production video formats like 12-bit RGB for 4K/UHD applications in both SDI and IP. These instruments include measurement tools for colorists with HDR requirements, a complete set of QC tools for objective evaluation of high-end video and audio content, and a remotely accessible user interface. Purpose-built for post-production, they’re exceedingly quiet, support a wide range of formats, and offer loop-through for reference monitors and analog audio out for edit suite configurations. Supporting local, remote, and post-production applications up to 8K, the MPP models enable color grading, surround sound audio production up to 7.1.4 and all the operational SDI monitoring and outstanding IP analysis the PRISM family is known for. They are planned for worldwide availability in Summer 2023.
Software-only version of Lightspeed Live Capture
Expanding professional-grade live capture capabilities to more workflows, Telestream will now offer its industry-leading Lightspeed Live Capture multichannel video capture and processing solution as software-only. With this flexibility, users can run the software anywhere they choose — from a Telestream server to their own servers to the cloud. Additionally, due to its deep integration with Telestream Vantage, it provides unparalleled depth in capture and media processing. The software-only version of Lightspeed Live Capture is planned for worldwide availability in Spring 2023.
Qualify brings QC to the cloud
A highlight at the Telestream booth will be Qualify for Encoding.com, the industry’s first fully-cloud-native automated quality control (QC) service, introduced in late 2022. Qualify gives broadcasters, content creators and distributors access to a comprehensive QC solution with the ability to expand or contract their QC deployment depending on their needs, similar to the way they utilize cloud encoding, simplifying capacity planning and providing greater elasticity in the supply chain.
Cloud-native video quality monitoring architecture
The transition to cloud-based video service operations poses a major quality control issue for content suppliers and distributors. At NAB, Telestream will demonstrate how an innovative, cloud-native, fully scalable architecture can work seamlessly across different video delivery chains in complex streaming workflows; with demos of cloud native VOD monitoring, live contribution and distribution quality monitoring, and a single management interface across linear delivery and OTT streaming. Telestream ARGUS is available worldwide.
