Efficient post production and archive workflows need solutions that flexibly support a diverse range of input and output formats and technical requirements while maximizing quality to maintain image integrity throughout the processing chain.

Whether transforming media for exchange between disparate acquisition and post production systems;  digitizing or standardizing back catalogs of tapes or files for archive; or mastering finished content for multiple distribution targets, our ingest and media processing solutions provide superior quality while preserving Closed Captions and critical metadata.

Bridging 'traditional' analog and digital baseband video signals with IT networks and file-based media architectures, our StreamZ and StreamZHD multi-format ingest encoders are ideal gateways into file-based post production and archive workflows. StreamZ and StreamZHD can capture from live and tape-based sources or transcode from existing media files, and combine the industry's deepest feature set with powerful automation and integration capabilities. For higher-volume transcoding workflows, our enterprise-class Digital Rapids Transcode Manager software combines outstanding quality, intelligent automation and exceptional workflow agility for scalable, distributed file-based media processing operations.
