As a result we already have several major projects in the pipeline that involve Dalet MAM solutions to streamline production workflows and assist in the management of audio and video assets for our broadcast, entertainment and media industry clients, throughout the Asia Pacific region.”

Essentially Dalet’s Enterprise Media Asset Management system enables broadcasters and content producers to incorporate multiple formats, metadata models and workflows – news, sports, programs, VOD, archives in SD and HD – under one unified corporate system by simplifying the distribution of rich-media assets across both traditional and interactive platforms. Our combined newsroom and enterprise MAM solutions form a key part of our stand 7D2-01 at Broadcast Asia 2010 and our strategy moving forward.”
