Abstract

This paper explains a working and proven file-based delivery system created to service both producers and television stations. It details the reasons why file-based delivery is better than traditional tape delivery for all parties, and discusses the set-up and process. The final video files sent to television stations are custom encoded for each station’s play server and include embedded closed captioning as required. This paper will be of particular interest to anyone still sending or receiving tape.

Keywords: video transcoding; video file delivery; managed transfer; cloud-based file delivery; closed captioning file insertion; television file delivery; FTP/UDD file transfer solution
