EXCALIBUR ANNOUNCE STAND-ALONE VIDEO LOGGER

EXCALIBUR Technologies, providers of content management solutions for text, video and images on the internet have announced the industry’s first XML-based video logger, Screening Room Capture.
The scalable, standards-based video logger will be available as a stand-alone product or as part of Excalibur’s Screening Room product for end-to-end capture, encoding, indexing, management and re-purposing of video content.
Screening Room Capture will extract visual and textual metadata from analogue or digital video by controlling multiple subsystems for closed-captioned text extraction, voice-to-text servers, video analysis, manual annotation, device control, and timecode management.
Excalibur Technologies Vice President David Nunnerley said: “Our goal with the Screening Room product is to give media professionals full control over their digital video content. By providing our customers, integrators and OEMs with open standards-based tools like Screening Room Capture, the management of video assets will be easier than ever believed possible.”
Screening Room Capture is the first video logger to support the XML standard, which allows the interchange of video assets and related metadata between businesses, media companies and consumers.
