EditShare Announce Flow MAM Update

EditShare has announced an update to its Flow Media Asset Management (MAM) solution.

The EditShare Flow 3.3.0.2 upgrade features content delivery to Amazon S3, batch sidecar metadata file processing, support for multi-track audio in AirFlow, and user permissions in Flow Templates.

The new 'Send to Amazon S3' feature automates migration of content from EditShare shared storage systems to low cost, secure offsite cloud storage, making it easier to distribute content to collaborators, clients and other third parties. Direct integration with Amazon storage buckets means users can automate delivery of clips, sequences and full packages from their on-premise EditShare storage direct to S3 or Glacier services. More information can be found in the video below.



Flow also supports batch import of sidecar metadata from an array of third-party solutions, including other media asset management solutions. During a Flow Scan session, metadata contained in each of the sidecar files is automatically applied to the appropriate clip based on the metadata mappings defined by the users within Flow.

The latest update includes the ability to control playback of individual audio tracks from within the AirFlow web application, 'soloing' a particular track or tracks and muting all others during proxy clip playback. This is key for AirFlow customers who review content with multitrack audio, often in multiple languages, and need to hear only one language during transcription or other review and approval workflows. This AirFlow feature is only available in select web browsers that support this HTML5 feature, including Safari, Edge, and the latest Internet Explorer (Windows only).

Flow's new user permissions capability gives administrators granular control over user access to Flow Metadata Templates, ideal for large workgroups. The settings allow administrators to grant, read and edit permissions across the enterprise as well as on a per-user basis, ensuring Flow Metadata Template integrity through controlled access.

Current Flow users with a valid EditShare maintenance agreement can download the update here.
