VSN To Launch Web-Integrated
Editing Tool
A

t NAB 2017, innovation and
media solutions provider VSN is
launching WEDIT, a highly functional
web-based editing tool integrated
within VSN Explorer, its media and
business
process
management
platform.
Developed in HTML5, this quick and
easy tool allows journalists and editors
to edit videos and prepare them for
broadcast from a single and unique
interface, without having to switch to
another system.
"Our new web-based video tool
breaks ground in allowing editors to
manage and edit all of their assets
in the cloud from a single interface,
which streamlines editing and enables
new, advanced workflows," said Jordi
Capdevila Espitia, Marketing Director
of VSN. "In addition to saving time and
helping users meet tight deadlines,
WEDIT can help companies reduce
their need for licenses and even avoid
costly NLE systems."

Within the VSNEXPLORER interface
and integrated with a full-featured
MAM, WEDIT users can work on
footage and clips located in deep
archived, near-line or online storage.
In effect, WEDIT is a "cloud content
editor," because it allows users to
access and edit files on the cloud, a
capability that can boost collaboration
between editors and departments.
In terms of editing features, WEDIT
users can edit sequences quickly by
cut; generate cut lists; mark-in and
mark-out segments with proxy frame
accuracy; associate metadata to the
editing cuts; edit quickly from the
interfaces timeline; and consolidate
sequences and publishing. At any time,
users can export a project into an
EDL file to finish editing, if necessary,
in another third-party NLE, such as
Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro or Avid
Media Composer.
The integration of this web editing
tool within a MAM system enables new

workflows. WEDIT users, for example,
can rely on metadata automatically
extracted by the MAM itself to
accurately search for content. With the
MAM's speech-to-text functionality,
the editor could search for content
within video audio transcriptions, and
again locate and timecode videos in
which that person is speaking about
a particular topic. VSN's WEDIT also
enables segmenting and locating
content based upon other parameters
such as format, bitrate, rights, or
user validation. These features and

advanced workflows drive efficiency
into the video editing process. By
using WEDIT, VSN clients won't need
to change to another, third-party NLE
system or use plug-ins to complete
their videos. Switching from tabs
and interfaces, and sometimes even
downloading files and uploading them
later to another system, all increased
the number of steps required to
complete news projects.
VSN executives will be on hand to
demonstrate this add-on feature to
VSNEXPLORER at the NAB booth.

Domo Broadcast Sales Director JP
Delport said: "The new Broadcast
Nano HD transmitter now boasts a
control panel as well as bluetooth
connectivity, which makes real-time
configuration as seamless as possible
for its operators."
Domo's PRORXD 8-Way Diversity RF
receive system is a multi-way diversity
COFDM receiver that has less than
two frames delay. Importantly, the
receiver's eight-way maximum ratio
combining of RF inputs ensures video
is recovered free from distortion. The
PRORXD receiver also now includes an
option to be linked to other receivers
via ASI packet diversity over coax
cable or IP, which is ideal for wide area
event coverage, e.g. blanket coverage
of a golf course or race track.
The on-board system devised
by 3G Wireless along
with the latest Domo
Broadcast will be on
display at NAB 2017
on the Domo Tactical
Communications Booth.
