Ownzones Media Network will release its fully Interoperable Master Format (IMF) technology and platform at IBC 2017.
Known as Ownzones Connect, it ingests, categorizes and stores multiple media files in one easy-to-access location stored in the cloud, optimising file quality for a larger reach. It also includes a dynamic creation of video jobs based on templates, and the introduction of smart agents for proactive metadata optimisation.
IMF is an SMPTE standard for providing entertainment companies with a master format that allows them to create and distribute multiple tailored versions of the same piece of content for different audiences. The delivery is targeted to service providers or distributors and multiple final destinations to broadcasters, OTT services (e.g. Netflix), DVD authors, airlines and others.
Commenting on the development, Aaron Sloman, CTO at Ownzones, said: “It is with anticipation that we look forward to IBC, where we will unveil streaming solutions adaptively designed for the ever-expanding ecosystem in which they operate.
“We are proud of the huge strides that we’ve made in the processing of the IMF format and are eager to introduce Ownzones Connect to the industry.”
Ownzones will be located in the Microsoft Stand (MS1 Hall 15) at IBC 2017.
