RadiantGrid Adds Softel Swift Subtitle

A developer of transcoding, transformation and new media automation service platforms, has announced that it is now adding subtitle processing to the company's transcoding platform.
It is taking place through its partnership with Softel, leaders in end-to-end caption and subtitle solutions with the addition of Softel being in response to requests from RadiantGrid Technologies international users to increase support for subtitling.
Through the RadiantGrid platform, users will now be able to handle subtitle and closed-caption processes with Softel's Swift VTX technology, which provides highly efficient encoding/transcoding, enabling subtitle and caption processing across a variety of output and file formats, including Open, Line 21, DVB, streaming VOD and web formats.
"Incorporating Softel technology into the RadiantGrid platform enables us to offer our international customers, as well as those in the U.S., the highest level of support for subtitles and closed captioning," said Kirk Marple, President and Chief Software Architect at RadiantGrid Technologies, LLC.
"Users will now be able to handle their subtitling and closed-captioning processes simultaneously with other transcoding processes within the platform, effectively reducing the time needed for content to be converted and processed for deployment."
"We’re very pleased to partner with RadiantGrid to enhance the capabilities of its platform," commented Sam Pemberton, Softel Chief Executive Officer.
"RadiantGrid has built a powerful solution for the management of media in file-based workflows. This, combined with our subtitling and captioning capabilities, will help to maximize the audience for content providers across a broad range of consumption mediums and formats."
