Tedial To Introduce Smart LIVE
T

edial is to introduce Smart LIVE
at NAB 2018, its comprehensive
live event support tool and a major
breakthrough in sports production.
Smart LIVE leverages Artificial
Intelligence (AI) tools to increase
the number of highlights created
automatically,
thus
reducing
production costs and boosting
revenues for production companies.
What makes Smart LIVE unique
in the industry? Before any action
happens, Smart LIVE ingests a
LIVE data feed and automatically
creates an event inside its metadata
engine.
Simultaneously
Smart
LIVE automatically creates the
corresponding log sheets, the player
grids and a schedule of the event.
All these preparations are linked
and organised by collections, so an
entire season of sports events can be
prepared automatically in advance.
During events, live data is ingested,
and the system can be configured
to automatically create clips based
on actions, keywords or logged
occurrences. Smart LIVE automatically
pushes content to AI engines;

video
and
audio
recognition can be
leveraged to generate
additional
locator
data and annotate
the media proxies.
And the system can
automatically publish
clips or push content to
social media platforms.
Jerome Wauthoz, VP
of Products for Tedial
said: "We couldn't
be more excited to
bring
broadcasters,
rights holders, clubs,
federations, or any organisation
involved in live production a
ground-breaking paradigm that will
dramatically transform the way they
automate clips and deliver content
across numerous platforms, including
social media. By tightly integrating
with AI tools, Smart LIVE can generate
an increased number of highlights
during or after an event, and deliver
to a very targeted audience increasing
the potential for significant growth in
fan engagement."

Smart LIVE's powerful metadata
engine can easily be configured to
create an automatic metadata ingest
process addressing demanding and
complex sport workflows. Smart LIVE
dramatically increases the utility of the
MAM GUI interface, bringing the MAM
much closer to LIVE production than
ever before.
Smart LIVE is compatible with PAM
providers such as SAM or EVS. It
can then manage the media lifecycle or media movements between

line-up of 'Keep It Super Simple'
solutions at NAB, combining powerful
but simple to use feature sets and

RUSHWORKS President Rush Beesley
said that RUSHWORKS is the "very
definition of different, with unique
technology that empowers a single
operator to create sophisticated multicamera video productions with no
compromise in technical or production
value."
He added that the gear was "so userfriendly that even non-techies can
operate it".
The line-up of new, upgraded and
enhanced products are:
A-LIST Streamster: Recognising the
increase in demand for OTT content
management
and
distribution,
RUSHWORKS has created an "IP only"

configuration of its industry-leading

scheduling and playback engine the
technology of choice for Internet TV
stations.

Esther Mesas, CSO/
CMO
for
Tedial,
added:
"Another
Smart LIVE benefit for
customers, that can't
be minimised, is the
substantial financial
gain. Thanks to the
Tedial Evolution automatic
highlight
engine and AI integration, preparation
time and production costs are reduced
with more highlights being created
with the same or less staff. And
more content published means more
revenues for these customers."
At NAB, Tedial will demonstrate
Smart LIVE's automatic highlight
creation feature, its integration with
AI engines, speech to text integration
annotating incoming live media, and
the automated publish feature with
