Etere now offers seamless compatibility with ORBOX, an advanced file-based Quality Control (QC) solution, to ensure comprehensive quality and compliance checks for your media files at every phase of the content lifecycle.

With this integration, Etere users gain access to the powerful capabilities of ORBOX, enabling quality and compliance assessments through automated workflows. Etere Media Asset Management (MAM) users can effortlessly connect to ORBOX via the user-friendly MAM web interface. Moreover, they can conveniently schedule automated ORBOX scans based on configurable Etere T-Workflow parameters, streamlining their media management processes.

Etere Media Asset Management (MAM) is a robust software solution designed to manage your media library and streamline your distribution workflow effectively. Seamlessly integrated with ORBOX, this sophisticated MAM system ensures that all Quality Control (QC) results are securely stored within the Etere database. This fully workflow-driven MAM solution empowers users with comprehensive software tools, enabling them to enhance productivity, minimise errors, and deliver content faster. Furthermore, its high availability and distributed system design ensures consistent and dependable performance at every stage of your workflow.

Key Features of the ORBOX Integration in Etere

The standard implies that in the digital representation of the YUV color space, the luminance Y-component (luma) is limited to specific values (for example, 16 to 235 for the 8-bit color depth). From a technical perspective, values outside the specified range are not “forbidden”. However, it’s highly probable that they won’t be displayed correctly during a broadcast and, therefore, have to be reset to the nearest “allowed” values.
