> Playout
Cloud based playout management of linear content and online VoD / OTT content. Pre-rendering / Highly scalable / Flexible to counter design change requests / Fast deployment / Compressed output, no need for downstream encoder plus low bandwidth requirement.
> Media Asset Management
The Media Asset Management (MAM) system manages all content coming in and out of a storage environment. The software keeps track of all assets entering the platform, (where the assets are stored) and will retrieve assets from the platform when required in another application. This highly scalable MAM features a variety of applications supporting content processing. There are tools for spotting, metadata registration and editing. Automated A.I. Metadata capturing is part of the solution, allowing users to build up a catalogue of auto detected items in their content, which can be useful for repurposing.
> Storage & Archive
MBS runs it own private ISO 27001 (IT Security) certified cloud, hosted in Germany.
> CMS
In order to orchestrate all content from purchase to broadcast, the CMS manages all content registration as well as easy to use and powerful content scheduling.
> OTT Platform
The platform provides all the latest OTT functionalities including Replay TV, Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality (VR) or 360 degrees. Default functions like EPG, SD/HD are supported as well. The platform also provides a WoD library for each client. Content is protected by DRM, if required. MBS offers 2 versions of the OTT platform, a centralized solution and a de-centralized solution. It is possible to use a combination of both platforms. The centralized OTT platform provides clients with a service platform which can be reached from anywhere in the world using internet connected consumer devices, like PCs, phones, tablets, or smart-TVs. The de-centralized OTT platform provides a solution for Remote sites / Hospitality / Maritime / Airplanes / Trains.
