eye on tech | IBC product previews MediaKind
nxtedition
The centerpiece of MediaKind’s stand at IBC 2022 will be a live, end-to-end streaming experience, using eSports-style car racing game simulator pods to create real-time live video content for all on-booth and partner demonstrations. Visitors can explore how MediaKind’s media technology solutions enable broadcasters, content owners, telcos and service providers to stream live without limits at scale and learn how the company is transforming audience engagement, personalizing services and enabling new monetization models for all content across all screens. Demos will include examples of live content acquisition applications, including media workflows and media processing in cloud contribution; at-home/remote production workflows; content replacement for targeted advertising distribution; all-IP workflows; and live event pop-up video streaming and monetization. Booth visitors will also get a chance to win a prize by participating in the “Track the Ads” challenge. z MediaKind will be in Stand 1.D09.
Broadcast microservices specialist nxtedition will demo its agile and digital-first platform that places storytelling at the heart of the production workflow, allowing even small teams to create and deliver highly compelling content fast, first and accurately. By creating a densely feature-rich microservice ecosystem, nxtediton has consolidated sophisticated tools like planning, NRCS, ingest, MAM, graphics, streaming, studio automation and digital publishing into a platform that removes engineering and puts storytelling at the center of the process. Each member of the team has context-aware access to exactly the functionality they need within the single unified GUI, ensuring all their tasks are intuitive and primarily handled by simple drag and drop features. This ensures lightning speed as content comes in, is turned around and pushed out without losing time switching to other applications. The speed and productivity gains from this approach ensure nxtedition clients are always the first notification on a viewer’s device. z nxtedition will be in Stand 7.A08.
