Digital Media Edge Server Features

Hardware

With over 30 years of experience in broadcast news, we are very focused on system stability and longevity. We base our systems upon enterprise grade Dell sever hardware, and partner with Dell to integrate all components at their Six Sigma build facilities. This guarantees system stability and service unsurpassed by any other video systems vendor.

User Interface

The server is controlled through an intuitive browser based application (accessible with Internet Explorer). In addition to basic listing of media by date-time, users can view media in dynamic categorized groups, or searching the local repository to locate the media that is most relevant. Once the desired media is located, users can quickly send the media to a supported integration or video server system, playback the clip (genlock SDI or composite), or transfer the media from the system in various file formats. Servers store thousands of hours of video locally; however, if users need access to older material, they can locally search the network archives by browsing online preview clips and retrieve full quality media.
