Efficient Use of Resources​

Metus INGEST is native 64bit Windows software. Consequently, it’s possible to get the kind of performance out of Metus INGEST that was previously only available from dedicated high end video capture servers.

​

Metus INGEST can capture up to 10 channels of full HD video MXF/MOV format. With support for GPU hardware acceleration (Intel Quick Sync and Nvidia CUDA), Metus INGEST can capture or stream up to 16 channels of full HD H.264 video.
Not only does Metus INGEST replace a whole rack of VTRs, but it also delivers far greater codec versatility. And its ability to save files direct to network storage and integration with media asset management systems (MAM) offer incredible workflow advantages over tape-based environments.

Intelligent Recording​

Metus INGEST is designed to fit in with your workflow.

​

- Studio Operation
Users can simply make a crash capture and record live camera feeds; it enables technicians to start, pause, stop and split individual channels or all channels at the same time.
- Digitizing and Achiving
Metus Ingest connects to a VTR and supports in & out points to make a batch capture. Users can print back to tape a video file in the same manner.
- Scheduled Recording
Program a schedule, and even control popular video routers (including Kramer, Blackmagic, Quartz, Jupiter and Pro-Bel devices) for NxM operation (N input channels captured or streamed into Y Metus channels)
- Compliance Recording and Monitoring
Capturing live broadcasts IP sources.

Media Management​

Multi-channel recording can create a massive number of files. Keeping in control of the files is one of Metus INGEST’s key strengths. Files can be automatically named according to user-defined naming templates.

​

Files can be split automatically according to duration or size. Once the local media storage space starts filling up, Metus INGEST can be set up with media management rules to automatically move files to another location, or even delete ageing files. Alternatively, clips can be recorded direct to network storage. If the files are to be imported into a media management system, users can enter metadata during capture and automatically write files to the archive.

System Control and Usability​

Metus INGEST is very easy to use. Every control and window required for manual operation is on a single screen.

​

Particular system configurations can be saved into user profiles and project files. As a result, any user can be trained to operate INGEST as a standalone system in with a minimum of effort.
Metus INGEST can be deployed and managed in complex multi-channel deployments. All actions are logged, and critical operations can be password protected. Metus INGEST Controller software allows remote control and monitoring of all INGEST workstations on a local network. A TCP/IP based API is available for custom application integration.

Advanced Media Handling Options​

File processing is a key component of the system. Functions include:

​

- Rescaling (aspect ratio and resolution change) from input signal/file to output file/stream
- Multi audio capture and streaming from SDI or TS source
- Audio channel remapping
- Closed caption from input to file or stream
- LTC/VITC burn in to file, and detecting timecode breaks
- Logo/text/time overlay to file
- Record to network location with local caching

Uncompromising Performance​

Metus INGEST is used in broadcast studios, mission critical archive operations, control rooms, media monitoring centers and research laboratories and military test sites worldwide. It delivers:

​

- Quality
Metus INGEST delivers maximum quality files, whether you are capturing uncompressed video or web quality H264, by using advanced image pre-filtering algorithms.
- Accuracy
Metus INGEST is frame accurate. Files captured or transcoded from the same source always have the same length, down to the last frame.
- Responsiveness
Metus INGEST allows capture without frame loss. Capture and streaming starts instantly, with. No arming period, caching time, no lost or dropped video frames. If you split a recording, no frames are lost at the split point.
- Reliability
Used with professional-level workstations, Metus Ingest is proven to be stable under continuous operation, even in 24/7 environments.
