Dalet Enterprise Edition is an open Media Asset Management (MAM) platform designed to facilitate highly efficient and collaborative workflows for news, sports, program preparation, and archives. Developed on the principles of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), Dalet solutions leverage the full capabilities of modern IT technologies. Its integrated Workflow Engine and Web Services API provide agility and openness for managing a wide range of workflows and broadcast equipment. The natively integrated production tools manage ingest, logging, production, playout, archive and distribution of content across multiple platforms.

“Dalet offers Asian broadcasters an integrated, end-to-end MAM solution proven to improve productions and reduce costs. Our customers have taken advantage of the open architecture to completely tailor features and functions to meet specific requirements. Even the user interface can be localized in many different languages,” comments Arnaud Elnecave, Director of Asia Pacific, Dalet. “To ensure our customers like ABS-CBN and TV-One maximize the breadth and depth of features the system can offer them, we have a large professional services team and a network of established system integrators located throughout the regions supported by our corporate offices in Singapore and Sydney, Australia.”

 

End-to-end news production workflow demonstration

Delivered with the comprehensive Dalet Newsroom Computer System (NCRS), Dalet Enterprise Edition provides a fully integrated end-to-end solution that can perfectly adapt to any newsroom operation. Dalet’s unique “story-centric approach” enables newsrooms to be more efficient and faster. Each story, complete with multimedia elements such as video, graphics, still pictures, web links, and text components can be followed through every step of the workflow with status, metadata and associated media elements consistently tracked and managed.

Feature highlights:

  • News wheel playout and pre-production workflow is a revolutionary concept initially designed for Time Warner Cable’s 24/7 news production workflow. The new feature maximizes playout automation efficiency of news clips across multiple channels, with different formats and languages.
  • Dalet’s unique “CG on the timeline” feature simplifies the process of creating broadcast graphics from journalists’ desktops. No burn-in required as playout is fully automated.
  • Comprehensive web-based NRCS, WebSpace; Dalet’s Windows-based web client now includes a full-featured NRCS. In addition to video tools, newsgathering, planning, rundown management, and script editing are available to users from anywhere via web or PC clients. WebSpace runs on Macintosh and Windows platforms.
