Orange
went on air with Dalet Enterprise Edition on August 9, 2008.
"Dalet enterprise asset management is
the technology enabler for converged environments. Broadcasters can
deliver content for Mobile TV, VOD alongside and with the same ease
as standard channels using a single unified system thanks to the
DaletPlus asset management platform," comments Stephane Schlayen,
Chief Operating Officer, Dalet SA. "The Dalet lossless metadata
schema and automated processes ensure media and ultimately packages
travel to the right distribution channels regardless of delivery
platform."
"The capability of Dalet to integrate both News and Media Asset
Management processes was instrumental in the selection of the Dalet
solution," said Alain Lorentz, Technical Director, Cognacq Jay
Image. "The tight and smooth integration between the Dalet MAM and
the post production solution from Apple is an essential feature;
optimizing both the production processes and the 'time to air'."
Dalet Professional Services worked
closely with system integrator Cognacq-Jay Image to design and
implement the digital workflow that facilitates convergence for the
modern multi-channel distribution. The Dalet-driven production
workflow at Orange includes production management capabilities;
ingest, logging, quality control, planning, desktop production, and
media asset management. Best of breed production storage from Exanet
and server playout from Omneon is seamlessly integrated into the
Dalet-driven workflow. Apple's editing is brought directly into the
production chain via Dalet Xtend. Dalet Enterprise Edition
facilitates xml integration with Mediagenix for programmation and
with the Harris automation system to complete the workflow.
Visitors to IBC 2008 can see Dalet solutions on stand 9.D28. For
