Canto, a global leader in Digital Asset Management (DAM) solutions, today announced Cumulus Video Suite 1.0.1, an Option for the Cumulus Enterprise product line to efficiently manage and distribute videos assets.
Due to an award winning shot boundary detection technology Video Suite can create records for each shot in the video, which can even be annotated with additional metadata. Cumulus Video Suite even supports streaming for viewing video files over the Internet, catering the needs of corporations where secure distribution of training, sales and marketing videos is a pressing concern.
“The lifespan of corporate videos is short, they need to be delivered as fast as possible to the right people, after all yesterday’s news is old news,” said Canto CEO Jennifer Neumann. “The combination of Video Suite and a streaming server enables our customers to perform live broadcasts and multicasts, instantly delivering their video information to employees and partners and most important decreasing both turnaround time as well as operational and courier costs.”
Version 1.0.1 now offers WMV support and has added features for the Mac OS X platform that were previously only available to Windows users such as the automatic shot detection based on cuts and effects. Users can create a secure video repository, catalog entire movies and individual video shots, view previews and thumbnails for cataloged videos and shots, edit shot boundaries, and add metadata to video files or individual video shots.
Video Suite makes it easy to search and find videos or shots fast by searching saved metadata, and helps to control the creative, productive, approval and distribution processes around the process and storage cycle of your rich media.
