Fri 17, 01 2025

Evolving Media Consumption Trends

The way people consume media and the platforms they use have undergone significant transformations:

  • Streaming services have been increasing in popularity worldwide.
  • Despite this surge in demand, production companies have not experienced a corresponding budget increase.

Key Trends:

  1. Optimizing investments in production assets:
    • Leveraging archives
    • Repurposing content
  2. Localizing content:
    • Creating new language versions of existing productions to reach broader audiences
    • Managing targeted advertisements for higher ROI

Etere’s Capabilities:

  • Supports SCTE-35 and SCTE-104 standards for:
    • Dynamic Ad Insertion (DAI)
    • Digital Program Insertion (DPI)
    • Benefits include inserting graphics, logos, and tickers without changing the broadcast infrastructure.

The Importance of Collaboration and Remote Work

In a post-COVID world, the reliance on remote working solutions has increased significantly:

  • Broadcasters now operate in hybrid or fully remote working environments.
  • Seamless access to media assets from any location is essential.

Challenges:

  • Managing extensive data
  • Ensuring seamless real-time updates across multiple platforms

Solutions:

Etere Ecosystem offers tools to address these challenges with secure access, efficient workflows, and collaborative frameworks.


The Convergence of Media Asset Management (MAM) and Production Asset Management (PAM)

The distinctions between PAM and MAM are becoming increasingly blurred.

Evolution:

  • Previously, PAM was limited to production capabilities at a single location.
  • Now, hybrid or fully remote environments require accessible workflows and robust access rights systems.

Etere Ecosystem integrates seamlessly with Active Directory for reliable authorizations and user permissions.
