| Harmonic releases ProMedia family |
| Posted: August 2011 | ||||||
Harmonic has unveiled the ProMedia family of software solutions designed to optimise live and file-based
multi-screen video production and processing for content and service providers. The ProMedia family performs a broad range of functions, including transcoding, packaging and origination, to enable high-quality video creation and delivery of live streaming, live-to-VoD and VoD services to TV sets, PCs, tablets, smartphones and other IP-connected devices. ProMedia is also an ideal solution for content creation in file-based workflows such as tapeless production environments. Besides offering the flexibility and performance required for today’s multi-screen video services, the ProMedia family of software products can be deployed individually or as an end-to-end video-processing solution. The products are integrated with leading digital rights management systems, asset management systems and content distribution networks, in addition to other Harmonic products including encoders, receivers, playout servers and storage. ProMedia is said to leverage Harmonic’s strong H.264 video codec expertise — based on the same intellectual property behind the company’s market-leading Electra encoders — to provide superior-quality video content for multi-screen viewing. There are four software products in the ProMedia family: n ProMedia Live is a real-time video processing and transcoding system with enhanced H.264 video codec technology developed by Harmonic and optimised for creating high-quality Internet video streams. n Powered by Rhozet technology, ProMedia Carbon (formerly Carbon Coder) is a file-based transcoder that supports the largest array of acquisition, editing, broadcast, Web and mobile formats in the industry. The system scales from a single instance to a large automated multi-node transcoding farm. n ProMedia Package is a carrier-grade adaptive streaming preparation system for secure, high-value Internet video services. Supporting numerous HTTP streaming protocol standards, the system is capable of packaging in multiple output formats from a single video source, enabling a more scalable, distributed architecture. n ProMedia Origin is an HTTP and RTMP streaming video server ideal for originating a broad range of multi-screen services in a scalable, easy-to-manage carrier-class platform. Leveraging industry-standard protocols from Adobe, Apple and Microsoft to maximise device interoperability, ProMedia Origin enables services such as live streaming, VoD, catch-up TV, start-over TV and network DVR to connected devices. Harmonic’s NMX Digital Service Manager, or a Web-based GUI for real-time services, can handle control and management. Harmonic is offering server-based hardware appliances to host the various ProMedia software applications.
