New products are on the way from Telestream, and the 2023 NAB Show is the debut locale for what the company has to offer.
Among the key highlights is the debut 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 product, showcase Qualify, touted as the world’s first truly cloud-native QC service.
“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 of 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.”
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. It also provides an intuitive web-based user interface for content search, preview, and repurposing. Content Manager’s auto-discovery feature enables indexing of files directly from cloud storage without the egress costs associated with copying to another location. This approach lowers costs while enabling efficient management of legacy content and incoming files. By automating content management actions and triggering automated workflows, Telestream Content Manager enables sophisticated supply chain workflows that incorporate content movement, lifecycle management and media processing.
It is planned for worldwide availability in Summer 2023.
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.
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.
