Omneon Introduces
ProXchange 1.6 With Apple® ProRes 422 Media Format Support
at IBC2010
Omneon Inc. today announced a new version
of the Omneon ProXchange™ grid-based transcode application
that adds support for the Apple® ProRes 422 media format.
Leveraging the combined storage and processing architecture
of the Omneon MediaGrid™ active storage system, Omneon
ProXchange 1.6 is the only system on the market capable of
faster-than-real-time transcoding of content between ProRes
and popular mezzanine production formats such as DNxHD. This
capability enables more efficient collaborative editing in
facilities that use both Avid® and Apple edit systems.
"As the first solution to deliver proven,
faster-than-real-time ProRes transcoding, the new version
of Omneon ProXchange allows broadcasters to avoid time- and
labor-intensive production workflows," said Geoff Stedman,
Omneon senior vice president of marketing and business development.
"Omneon ProXchange 1.6 resolves issues of format compatibility
in hybrid production environments, providing the flexible,
fast transcoding required to enable editing across multiple
platforms."
In addition to production format conversions,
Omneon ProXchange 1.6 also converts media in the ProRes format
to broadcast transmission formats such as MPEG-2, as well
as to low bit rate distribution formats, such as Flash®,
WM9, and H.264, with faster-than-real-time processing that
speeds delivery of edited content to PC and mobile platforms.
Omneon will highlight the latest version
of Omneon ProXchange at its IBC2010 stand (7.A10), as part
of a range of advanced solutions that facilitate fast, highly
efficient production workflows. Omneon will demonstrate a
collaborative editing environment including Apple, Avid, and
Adobe® edit systems, all operating on a single shared
storage system.
The company also will provide a demonstration of its integrated
instant production and media storage workflow built on EVS
server systems working with the Omneon MediaGrid, and showcase
a studio production environment based on Omneon systems.
