Volicon At NAB Show

T

he Share application for Volicon's
Observer
Media
Intelligence
Platform helps broadcasters repurpose
and deliver timely content to viewers
via new channels, whether for on-air
broadcast or digital and social media
platforms, and thereby increase both
audience reach and ad revenues.
Accelerating the clipping and
distribution of content in the
appropriate format for virtually any
target outlet and device, Share offers
a fresh, cost-effective, and highly
scalable approach to multiplatform
content creation and delivery. The
application is available on-premise
and in the cloud as a service, providing
instant browser-based access to media
captured by the Observer platform as
well as intuitive graphical tools that
make it possible for virtually any staff
member, working anywhere, to create
content.
During NAB, Volicon will showcase
new enhancements to the Share
application, including integration with
the As-Run Log (ARL) to enable users
without training on video editing

systems to remove ads quickly and
generate complete frame-accurate
long-form VOD assets.
Volicon's Observer OTT provides
networks, video service providers,
and broadcasters with a solution for
logging and monitoring OTT services
that stream content to computers,
tablets, and smartphones. With the
same suite of tools already proven
for set-top box and transport stream
monitoring, Observer OTT offers
a complete, cost-effective quality
monitoring
and/or
compliance

logging solution for multiplatform
media delivery. Users can ensure
that services are available 24/7 at
optimal quality, validate service level
agreements with content delivery
networks, confirm the presence of
captioning and other metadata, and
determine that specialized apps
are providing optimal quality of
experience. In addition to providing a
true recording of services, the system
facilitates remote streaming for review
as well as in-depth analysis of both
unencrypted and encrypted content.

Volicon will demonstrate how
Observer OTT ingests content from
each point in the OTT pipeline -
including a variety of target mobile
devices - not only to provide a valuable
look at how consumers experience
streamed content, but also to speed
isolation and resolution of quality
issues for content viewed on various
devices.
Today's broadcaster must manage
an increasing number of channels
and platforms while simultaneously
maintaining the highest levels of
service quality. Volicon's Multiviewer
option for the Observer Media
Intelligence Platform unites the
platform's recording capability with
multiviewer functionality to give users
access to multiple live or recorded
programmes, complemented by frameaccurate data, on a monitor wall or any
employee's desktop.
At the 2016 NAB Show, Volicon will
demonstrate how enhancements to
the Multiviewer option enable users
to keep their eyes and ears on every
channel in the broadcast delivery
chain, including OTT feeds, through
a new and improved graphical
interface.
