With DigaToolbar, we offer a quick launch bar with a powerful messaging system which notifies users of system events, arriving contributions and other configurable events like new items from the news wires. The DigaToolbar also features a chat system. It has been designed to centralize communication and launch other applications. DigaToolbar is as a modular system with a plug-in structure which allows certain third-party systems to use the toolbar as a platform. It uses very little screen space and its placement can be selected according to personal preference. Wherever a user logs-in, DigaToolbar loads individualized settings from the DigaSystem registry. The DigaToolbar also offers the possibility to display a real time clock on the screen as well as one that shows the time in another time zone.
The Story Editor is a universal pre-production tool for combining text and audio in a single application. The look and feel is similar to the Reporter Box, a familiar component of DAVID Systems’ audio editors. The story consists of audio and text elements as well as commands. Additional features are spell and grammar check, a thesaurus, notes, clip lists, durations, and other helpful features like full drag-and-drop functionality between StoryEditor and news feed or DigaSystem editors.
A brand new Moves Media product is DigaFTP, a service for the transfer of files into DigaSystem CMS. The application allows control of simple FTP server functions by third-party systems, enables direct docking to such systems without polling. DigaFTP uses a standard FTP interface. It extracts metadata out of file names - through FTP site commands or file analysis - and creates a DBM database entry during the transfer process. Grow¬ing files are supported as well. DigaFTP is fully integrated into the Station Automation Framework (SAF) and allows parallel operation of multiple functions. One instance is always assigned to one database table, independent of the number of transfers in process.
Media Component Library (MCL) is DAVID Systems’ new comprehensive media framework which replaces the existing Video Component Library. MCL is a future proof concept which is not only optimally adapted to modern hardware resources but can be adjusted to continually changing requirements and new workflows. The modular concept allows to enhance the application via plug-ins, e.g. for new formats or devices. MCL is integrated in our Station Application Framework and runs as desktop application or as web service. As the basis for all our video and audio technologies MCL also is the central component for all ingest and transcoding processes as well as for render services. Fields of application
LoRes Manager controls the automatic generation of low-res copies while the transcoding itself is done by the DigaTransfer System. This task sharing results in a highly scalable system because all that is required when the system load is nearing capacity is to simply increase the number of TransferWorkers. The most important features are:
Hydrogen Lifecycle Management (HLM) turns your now co-existing systems into co-operating systems. HLM is the universal adapter and guarantees a continuous media life cycle that is essential for optimal workflows. A new architectural model provides an integrated production and archive with only one application set and one set of information infrastructure helps improving time-to-air, increasing the repurposing of archive content or producing more content in the same time.
As core of the enterprise wide systems landscape HLM glues together all components of modern media production. It integrates systems and workflows like news production, program pro¬duction, newsroom system, rights management system or legacy systems based on a central media repository. At the same time it is used for information sharing between functions, departments, systems, different media types and even between organizations. With its open interfaces and helper applications it provides the most crucial functionality for media professionals. Key Features
