Telestream makes FlipFactory more accessible

Telestream has new bundling and pricing specials for its
flagship FlipFactory transcoding workflow automation product line.
Telestream’s FlipFactory summer specials include FlipFactory New Media,
a new bundling priced at $4,995. FlipFactory New Media targets the
rapidly growing new media market and its requirement for high-volume
publishing and distribution of video and audio in multiple formats for
today’s diverse viewing audiences on the web, podcast, DVDs and mobile
devices.

“Since its inception seven years ago, FlipFactory has grown into a
valuable multi-stage workflow automation solution. With the
proliferation of video on the web and mobile devices, we’re seeing high
demand for basic, scalable transcoding solutions that include the
formats new media users need,” said David Heppe, president of
Telestream. “Having experienced tremendous success with our Mac-based
Episode Engine solutions in this lower price range, we’re excited to
offer FlipFactory at these special summer prices. This will enable any
content owner or service provider to own the industry’s leading
transcoding solution, including the smaller video-sharing web hoster
and broadcasters requiring dozens of servers.”

Scalable, enterprise-class FlipFactory products are comprised of
Windows server -based software applications that automate high-volume
workflows for video professionals. FlipFactory is now used by thousands
of users and supports over 120 digital media formats and devices. It
simplifies media publishing by automating the entire workflow process:
ingest of multiformat source media, transcoding to a broad range of
formats and resolutions, delivery to destination systems and user
notifications.

FlipFactory New Media supports all the major new media formats
including QuickTime, Windows Media, Real, H.264, 3GPP, AMR, AAC,
MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and more. Monitoring and decode for a choice of two
broadcast servers is included. Additional features include keyframe
extraction, time code burn in, auto-publishing of metadata with media
for podcast and Telestream’s exclusive MotionResolve™ technology for
ultimate picture quality.

FlipFactory ProHD, another new summer bundle priced at $17,425, offers
SD & HD support for multiformat, multi-vendor video environments.
FlipFactory has grown to be the industry standard for universal
transcoding between professional systems, providing proven, out-of-the
box integration between all the leading media servers, nonlinear
editing systems, storage area networks and more for thousands of media
professionals. FlipFactory ProHD automatically converts and transfers
SD & HD media and metadata files between professional systems. This
new offering includes encode and delivery support for a choice of two
broadcast servers, MotionResolve™ for pristine HD picture quality, and
closed caption extraction and processing.
