Dubsat launches online service
[Fri 30/07/2010 02:35:20]
Press release from Well Above
Following on from their hugely popular MediaPro desktop application, distributed advertising and media asset management company Dubsat, today announced the launch of My Media, a revolutionary new online service that uniquely repurposes TVCs and mydubsat version 9.0 the latest version of its online portal.
Grant Schuetrumpf, General Manager of Dubsat explained, “My Media and mydubsat version 9.0 are available and live now. My Media is another first in the market for this level of desktop functionality and is all about efficiency, speed, accuracy and quality. By utilising the My Media services in our web portal, mydubsat version 9.0, users can immediately access their TVCs and now repurpose and retrieve versions in any video format for DVD, podcasting, online and mobile on their desktop with the simple click of a mouse.”
My Media is part of the new mydubsat version 9.0 and extends Dubsat’s online tool palette giving users the power to search for their TVCs, play TVCs back within their browser at full screen, create JPEG storyboards, see extended media booking information and destinations relating to the TVC and add comments and messages which can be shared securely with their clients.
Schuetrumpf continued, “My Media is a convenient service within our cloud computing offering, allowing users to request and process file conversions offline, freeing up the desktop to do other tasks simultaneously.”
My Media repurposes a new file format from the user’s secure online library 24x7 from any desktop using ‘real-time processing’ so the user can see the progress as it happens. By accessing a simple menu in mydubsat 9.0 the user simply chooses their required file types and is given a cost estimate to accept. Once accepted the order is then fulfilled in real time.
One of the particularly popular features now made possible by My Media is the option to repurpose assets and make them accessible in Apple iTunes®. In this instance, once the TVC has gone through the simple repurposing process, My Media launches iTunes® and a TVC version of the asset is automatically downloaded ready to be played.
Schuetrumpf added, “This is a very convenient feature because most people have iTunes® as part of their desktop suite of applications. Users can also subscribe to an RSS feed and share the podcast with their clients by simply providing them with the subscription URL and a unique user name and password. This is another good example of how Dubsat is giving more power and functionality to its users and their clients via their own desktops.”
My Media and mydubsat 9.0 are the result of many months R&D and a significant amount of research and planning.
Schuetrumpf concluded, “Our aim with My Media was that it be powerful, versatile and efficient for all users. We have achieved this by making it more convenient than ever to manage TVCs and their history on one screen with all relevant information and data instantly available. My Media is a real step forward and brings even greater efficiency and convenience to the desktop. There is also a lesser need for dedicated hardware and proprietary servers to be purchased. The real efficiency of MediaPro and My Media is that they are convenient, online, cloud computing services immediately accessible by any desktop computer with Internet access. Dubsat is committed to providing all of our solutions in this way and on following the Software as a Service model.”
The My Media TVC asset repurposing service is now available via mydubsat version 9.0 at www.dubsat.com.au
