Digital transformation in the Media and Entertainment (M&E) market involves many applications that need to exchange content and metadata (data) in a fluid and efficient manner. For media companies operating in today’s digital world, producing, managing and distributing content requires an efficient and agile media supply chain, where metadata impacts all of these processes.

MetaBroadcast - Overpaying for data? Elevating the value of metadata for managing and distributing video has never been more important. However, this requires an understanding of existing licensed or owned data, prioritizing the creation of a data strategy and a commitment to persistent centralized metadata management. The result is cost-optimized data driving monetization. Maximize content investments At a time when exposing the depth of their content libraries matters more than ever, video service providers must also manage costs more effectively. With dual strikes shutting down the Hollywood film and TV production industry, the value of existing content has skyrocketed. This means both studios and video service providers must do everything they can to maximize their content investments by showcasing and marketing their content archives. This includes making sure that the metadata, the often overlooked but critical “data about data”, that describes each title is complete, accurate and relevant. Metadata includes programme titles, IDs (usually more than one), genre, series, episodes, images, crew, synopses (of different lengths), release dates, duration, schedule (where appropriate), ratings, reviews, and aliases.

Fall Leaves & Data Deluges: Selecting the Right Solutions
Every autumn since my 13th birthday, I fall in love. That’s because I live in New England. For about a 6-week span, there is no better place to live. Great weather of cool nights and warm days combined with the beauty of the leaves changing color. It really is the best time to be here…but all that comes with a price. At the same time that I’m falling in love, my hate for the falling leaves grows more and more. Living in New England, it’s a continual battle to deal with the leaves blanketing the lawn. Sure, I can rake up the massive amount of leaves that shed from my trees into piles. After all, it’s cheap and good exercise, but I don’t have the time to spend hours upon hours fighting the never-ending battle. The only way to keep up with it is to invest in the right solution to get the job done in an efficient manner. In this case, it’s using a riding mower and backpack blower to get my lawn clear of the dead leaves.

BT Media & Broadcast – Extracting more value from live content
We propose to build a portal-based, pay-as-you-use media ‘engine’ into our video switches at BT Tower. Live content feeds coming through the switches could be captured in 24-hour segments, stored for 10 days and have metadata automatically generated. Content could be easily found using keywords, no action would be missed if events run on longer, and rights holders have sufficient time to fetch clips retrospectively.
