EditShare to unveil Flow 2.0 at NAB 2010 EditShare’s Production Asset Management platform sports new Edit While Capture and bandwidth-controlled file-based ingest capabilities with expanded codec support Boston, MA – April 9, 2010 -- EditShare®, the technology leader in cross-platform collaborative editing and shared media storage systems, is pleased to announce a wealth of new workflow-engineered capabilities for EditShare Flow, its production asset management solution for building collaborative media production infrastructures. The new 2.0 version of Flow will be showcased at the NAB 2010 convention held in Las Vegas, NV from April 12 to 15 (stand SL4725). Fully integrated with the award-winning EditShare shared storage and archiving solutions, Flow provides extensive content management, asset tracking and production capabilities for managing post-production and broadcast workflows. “Our development team has engineered a stunning array of new Flow features just in time for NAB,” says Andy Liebman, Founder and CEO, EditShare. “Flow has evolved into an industry forerunner for building collaborative media production workflows. The new Flow 2.0 platform adds high value production features including Edit While Capture, scanning non-Flow ingested media, bandwidth-controlled file-based ingest, support for new codecs, sequence creation, and deeper integration with EditShare Ark. These new features enhance collaboration and streamline any editor’s pre and post-production tasks.” Highlights of the new Flow version 2.0 release include:
About the EditShare Flow Product Line EditShare Flow consists of Flow Ingest, Flow Browse, Flow Logger and Flow Scan. Flow Ingest supports an extensive range of codecs and wrappers, including Avid MXF® and Apple® QuickTime® formats. Flow’s ability to encode simultaneously in 2 high-resolution formats and a proxy eliminates the need for background transcoding and proxy generation after capture. Flow Browse is a cross-platform application that gives users access to all content stored on their EditShare shared storage and Ark systems. With intuitive organizational features, such as Bins and Sequences, assistants or editors can pre-edit material before they even reach the edit bay. Clips and Sequences can be dragged from Flow Browse directly into a bin within the NLE, providing a fast and intuitive means of managing large amounts of data. The new Flow Logger application offers customizable templates with pre-defined metadata fields that are ideal for productions such as reality TV and live sporting events. Customized metadata fields, such as names of contestants or sports players or predefined content to describe actions and story lines, provide an intuitive interface for logging live feeds or existing media files. The new Flow Scan application adds media files that have not been captured with Flow Ingest into the Flow database, whilst also creating low-res proxy files. Within seconds after capturing media with an NLE, users can see and browse the media in Flow Browse. EditShare Flow feature highlights include:
