Posted on: Tuesday, 25 April 2006, 12:00 CDT
SAN JOSE, Calif., April 25 /PRNewswire/ -- The Rhozet Corporation today announced that it will be integrating its Carbon Coder transcoding engine with the new Omneon MediaGrid active storage system unveiled at NAB 2006. Designed to support the full digital media workflow, the Omneon MediaGrid is a highly scalable active storage platform for broadcast and production facilities that simplifies operations by enabling simultaneous access to centrally stored content. The integration of Rhozet's transcoding capability with the new Omneon MediaGrid will enable a true "any in, any out" media workflow.
"We are excited to be working with Omneon and the new MediaGrid system," said David Trescot, CEO of Rhozet Corporation. "The Omneon distributed media library is an ideal platform for Rhozet's distributed transcoding architecture. Using the grid's multiple nodes for both storage management and transcoding processing makes for a cost-effective and high-performance system."
"The value of any new system becomes exponentially greater when third-party applications are able to harness the technology," said Jason Danielson, senior director of solution marketing for Omneon. "With support for standard protocols as well as an open API, we are ensuring that Rhozet will increase efficiencies for broadcasters who integrate the Omneon MediaGrid into their operations."
Rhozet is demonstrating its distributed grid encoding on the MediaGrid storage platform at this week's NAB show in Las Vegas in the Omneon booth #SU2959.
