HBO Latin America has selected MassTech's MassStore nearline
storage, archive, and asset management system as part of a facility
expansion that will allow more HBO services to be offered to Latin
America, Brazil, and the Caribbean. Along with MassStore, HBO Latin
America will also use Masstech's new MassLogger for confidence
recording.
The MassStore system is an end-to-end advanced nearline, archive,
and asset management solution for professional broadcast environments.
It provides from 1,000 to 100,000+ hours of nonlinear audio/video
storage with full content management and tracking. A full-featured
Oracle9i asset management database provides advanced, Web-enabled
metadata access and control.
MassStore also features native support for industry-standard VDCP,
VACP, and NDCP protocols.
The new MassLogger system, which serves as a VCR replacement for
off-air logging, matches as-run files to logged video for
reconciliation, provides live streaming output of the on-air broadcast
for remote monitoring, and implements disk-based technology to store
months or years of on-air playout. The new system utilizes
industry-standard MPEG-4 encoding and playback, along with local or
networked disk storage, to offer a simplified means of automating
confidence recording and accessing confidence playback.
