it into a finished program. This frees the editorial processes from traditional linear videotape editing or the dedicated nonlinear workstation. TWIinteractive has developed a digital asset management solution called the Interactive Content Factory (ICF). This provides an end-to-end solution for the acquisition, production, and distribution of video content to a wide range of delivery channels including television and wireless applications. ICF has much simplified the delivery and syndication of live sports programming and the associated highlights packages using a number of new technologies. One component of the ICF solution is NetEdit, a desktop editing product. This leverages the power of streaming video, and specifically new features of the Windows Media 9 Series to provide increased functionality for the remote user. Most digital asset management products give the ability to view proxies of video assets. ICF takes this a step further. NetEdit is a browser-based interface that can be used to edit archive files, or even live video feeds. The operator can perform frame-accurate edits with transitions and effects, and record a voice-over. The result can be exported as an edit decision list (EDL) for a craft editor to refine the rough cut. Alternately, the ICF video server can use the EDL to automatically implement the edits on the broadcast resolution material (a process called auto-conform). ICF has developed a way to burn running time code into a live feed encoded as Windows media format. Conventionally the time index object for the streaming file is generated when the file is closed. The ICF video server embeds the time code, so that live content can be edited whilst being captured. For sports coverage, this means that highlights can be packaged during play as fast as the editor can mark the in and out points. As an example, a goal could be delivered to viewers as a short clip less than a minute after the event. NetEdit has a familiar timeline interface, with all the functions needed for simple editing, but requires only Internet Explorer installed on the workstation and a broadband connection with an IP connection to the media server. Summary The last 100 years have seen a steady evolution of new media channels. The first mass communication media, print, was joined by radio. Alongside the development of radio the telephone opened up personal communication. Then came television. At each stage the new medium originally was treated as a variant of its predecessor. Some of the first radio news broadcasts used the anchor to read the newspaper headlines. Early television was like a radio broadcast with pictures. Gradually the creators of content learned how to exploit the new medium in a way that broke from the stereotypes of its forerunners. 322 The Technology of Video and Audio Streaming
