Media Asset Management (MAM)

MAM Description

Content management, file ingest, transcoding, and collaborative video editing from a single and unified Web Interface.

  • Manage your media content regardless of where it is stored.
  • Access to multisite for full content management, transcoding & editing.
  • Handle your assets and associated metadata in and out of your premises from a single unified web interface.

Incite MAM is an advanced tool to handle ingest, metadata, logging, search, view, edit, and transcoding of media assets on anything from a single system to a networked environment. It has been developed from the ground up as an open architecture to meet the needs of broadcasters and video content producers.

The core idea behind INCITE MAM is to allow content producers to spend less time on locating material and to focus on their production. This means that journalists, producers and editors can start selecting material for the editing session with unparalleled ease.

  • The Incite MAM functions as a master in the production system and controls the media flow, project definition, and all metadata throughout the entire production.
  • With its web interface, users can search, browse, retrieve, and perform actions allowed by their profile even without accessing the storage directly.
  • Incite MAM has an integrated player window that allows operators to preview any content.
  • Incite MAM has a built-in full Web Editor which allows you to fully edit your story for news, sport, or Social Media.
  • Web live stream edit
  • Production asset management systems (PAM)
  • Enables publishing to multiple platforms in various formats from within the browser
  • It uses an SQL database to keep track of information about media files, associations between media files (multiple resolutions of the same media), metadata, user management, and project organization.
  • Organize your media assets into an archive
  • Content retrieval is made easy through the Disk Archive management. It enables users and operators to archive, retrieve and see the status of projects in the archive.
  • It has an open architecture that delivers integration with industry-standard video servers, disk storage, and LTO vendors.
