IBM Aspera® Streaming
IBM Aspera® Streaming
As an example, IBM Aspera Streaming enables customers to centralize remote production of high bit-rate live programming, eliminating the need to co-locate costly production staff at remote venues. It supports in-line transcoding and packaging to accelerate live video delivery and facilitates open file workflows for real-time editing and production. By lowering the production costs for all kinds of events, broadcasters can create and deliver new content targeting new audiences.
Designed to revolutionize the way live and near-live high definition video is delivered, IBM Aspera Streaming software can replace or minimize the use of expensive satellite and dedicated fiber with the timely delivery of any bit rate video over unmanaged public internet. The underlying technology can also be seamlessly embedded via a set of APIs that enable a new, broader set of IP network and cloud-based use cases and workflows. Video can be streamed as a uniform, unaltered, in-order byte stream that equally supports constant bit rate and adaptive bit rate formats. Aspera Streaming-enabled solutions perform exceptionally well over long-haul WANs, with negligible start up delay.
The robust, easy-to-use web application in Aspera Streaming enables:
- Auto-discovery of streaming devices for fast, simple set-up
- Centralized monitoring of networked streaming devices
- Location status (online/offline) and management features
- View devices, streams and connections from any vantage point (both sending and receiving locations)
Innovative streaming technology
IBM Aspera Streaming meets the challenge of today’s live video opportunities with an innovative transport solution that uses commodity Internet (IP) networks in place of costly legacy satellite delivery and dedicated fiber networks. Aspera’s patented FASP transport technology can provide the consistently exceptional broadcast quality and “zero-delay” experience of traditional satellite backhaul and transmission.
Stream provider and receiver interoperability
The software can transport any live video source available on local multicast, unicast UDP, unicast TCP, or growing file source and will output video to the same options. It provides a uniform lossless, in-order byte stream transport that equally supports constant bit rate and adaptive bit rate formats with performance independent of video encoding details.
Reliability and multi-endpoint capability
One stream source can be sent to multiple destinations concurrently and provides built-in path redundancy. Server hosts are natively clustered. Stream sessions failover automatically connect to another host. Aspera management services automatically reconnect and restart failed streams after a network outage.
Aspera product interoperability and management
Streaming sessions are designed for full interoperability with the Aspera file transfer stack. RESTful APIs allow production workflow and broadcast management systems to manage streams and provide status. Stream sources can include cloud and on premises transcoders and encoders that read from stream and file – or provide stream outputs or growing files.
High quality video delivery
One stream source can be sent to multiple destinations concurrently and provides built-in path redundancy. Server hosts are natively clustered. Stream sessions failover automatically connect to another host. Aspera management services automatically reconnect and restart failed streams after a network outage.
Robust security and authentication
All streaming sessions are encrypted in transit and security authenticated using standard public/private key authentication or Aspera’s multi-tenant access key system. Built-in access control policies can be used to restrict stream providers and consumers by stream protocol, IP address and ports.

Post-Production Automation
Post-production workflows are notably slow and manual, with files being shipped by hard drive and editors tasked with batch encoding and ingesting files, as well as manually entering custom bin information into their Avid systems. These steps can add days to the production schedule, slowing content creation.
Now, latakoo has created a solution that automates this workflow for teams using Avid Media Composer, shaving days off of the current process.
Automation with MediaComposer
With latakoo, crews on location can send a lightweight proxy file to the editors within minutes of the shoot. With latakoo’s patented compression/upload process, proxy files can be created and quickly uploaded to your private cloud account, for storage and sharing. Metadata associated with the files – such as card number, shoot date, camera ID, project number, or any custom field - can be collected for each group of videos transferred. The metadata form is completely customizable for your project requirements.
After upload, the files are automatically downloaded by latakoo HUB and dropped inside your firewall. All the editors have to do is drag the group of files into the appropriate bin in Avid Media Composer. The files, along with the metadata, automatically populate the Avid bin with the correct information.
And because the proxy files retain their original video ID, relinking the original media is easily achieved.
latakoo is a complete system, so when that first draft is finished, you can easily export it to the cloud for review and approval.
Reclaim Your Time
Imagine saving days off of your current video workflow; automating proxy creation, ingest and metadata into one simple system. It’s possible with latakoo.

CaptureBox
CaptureBox allows the capturing of multiple HD and SD content channels from digital HD / SD SDI feeds, analog sources and MPEG transport streams. You can monitor and control four video sources on a single screen via a new simplified user interface. Audio levels can be tracked and modified if necessary as loudness / true-peak displays. Content ingested in CaptureBox can be played within a few seconds of capture. The CaptureBox feature set additionally provides catch-list input from third party traffic systems, including CEA-608/708 closed-captioning support and RS-422 automated VTR control with batch-capture listing.
Universal Ingest: The wide range of inputs offered–composite, component SD / HD SDI, UDP Transport Stream–makes various ingest applications possible Remote control of VTR:RS-422
VTR control by Sony protocol is used to automatically capture batches from tape. With convenient keyboard shortcuts, tape cue, playback and shuttle is quite easy.
Batch and Scheduled Capturing: You can catch video clips from various tapes in one session, sorted by tape ID and upward time code. Once the capture session is started the only operator assistance if requested is to switch the tapes. You can continuously collect content from live sources such as satellite feeds based on a schedule with a single, daily or weekly reoccurrence. Optional router control offers automated input channel transitioning when capturing different channels.
Audio Loudness/True Peak Meters: It is possible to monitor and correct audio VU / peak levels dynamically.
Use While Capturing (TDIR): Before the capture process is complete, ingested clips can be used for immediate editing or playout of AirBox. This is especially useful for sports events or applications for time delay / instant replay.
Multi-channel audio: It is possible to record up to 16 channels.
MS Windows 10 compatible.
