DAVID will be present at the NAB Exhibition 2015 in Las Vegas (April 13-16, 2015) – the premier annual technology event for the creation, management and delivery of entertainment and news content worldwide. The project was selected to present at NAB Labs Futures Park (booth N9629), where research results important for the future of the field are exhibited.
- DIGITAL of JOANNEUM RESEARCH demonstrates new, essence based damage detection tools for Digital BETACAM™ dropouts, field order errors and progressive / interlaced / pull-down errors, integrated in the essence quality checking system VidiCert, addressing archive migration and video production quality control applications. Novel results for noise suppression and Digital BETACAM™ dropout repair are presented.
- HS-ART Digital will show its semi-automatic video field issues repair tool for the first time at NAB. Furthermore the new Digital BETACAM™ dropout repair and noise filters, integrated into the DIAMANT-Film Restoration software, will be shown. The noise filter addresses the whole video and film post production market working with digital born material as well as with digitized content.
- Cube-Tec will present a high-speed solution to solve interoperability problems with MXF media files in a fully automatic way. This new technology is called MXF Legalizer and is part of the Cube Workflow Framework. MXF Legalizer checks MXF files for standards conformance. In addition MXF format variants that are known to be the reason for interoperability issues in typical file-based broadcast chains are also fixed. Expandable rule-based decision logic is used to convert MXF files into the selected target MXF flavour.
- The IT Innovation Centre of the University of Southampton will demonstrate a Business Process Risk management framework prototype (BPRisk) that allows users to manage preservation workflows with respect to risks that threaten the long-term preservation of digital AV content. BPRisk includes risk modelling and workflow simulation to expose key vulnerabilities. This enables decision-makers to target and justify investment in effective risk management strategies.
