UTV Moves Ahead On Archiving
Ulster Television (UTV) has teamed up with a leading supplier of digital media solutions, Tyrell CCT in a deal that will boost the broadcaster's programme archiving system.
Powered by Marquis Broadcast's Media Highway Technology, the new solution takes advantage of Parking's edit sequence archive and restore functionality enabling UTV to move forward rapidly with their transition to tapeless technology.
UTV needed fast, un-hindered access to their digital news packages whilst also requiring a large volume of archive material to be available at their fingertips.
They wanted to avoid adding more capacity to their production storage network and consulted with Tyrell CCT to identify an archive solution that required minimal management, could scale quickly and be available across their entire Avid news production systems.
The integrated Marquis and Object Matrix solution allows UTV to move entire sequences, including edit decisions, subclass and metadata, from dedicated Avid ISIS storage to the MatrixStore environment in a simple one-click process.
No specialist knowledge of storage or archive management systems is required, At any time in the future, sequences, together with all metadata including media and edit decisions, can be retrieved and dropped directly into the editing system.
The solution greatly improves workflow efficiency and resource management for UTV as valuable online edit storage is freed up.
Sean Ferrin, Head of Operations, UTV Television, said: "The combination of Object Matrix and Marquis gives UTV a robust and flexible solution that is easily scalable and allows us to accommodate and manage our rapidly growing digital news archive.
"The solution brings significant cost savings and efficiencies, freeing up valuable resources and greatly reducing the requirement for large quantities of tapes and associated physical storage. Content can now be moved with minimum effort and it is instantly searchable, easily retrievable and totally secure."
