For the first time at this year’s NAB Show, digital content management, production and distribution specialists Silver Trak will be demonstrating the very latest technological addition to their award winning Media Room solution, a new frame accurate player that now includes clipping, markers and annotations, audio track selection, caption extraction and much more.
Over the last five years Silver Trak has designed Media Room to be an agnostic content management platform. Developed for aggregating, hosting, searching and delivering media content anywhere in the world, Media Room focuses on three key concepts for content: security, availability and usage.
Silver Trak COO Christian Christiansen explained Media Room’s new technology development and why it was so significant saying, “At this year’s NAB we will launch and showcase Media Room’s new frame accurate player which includes clipping, markers and annotations, audio track selection, caption extraction and much more.The new Media Room 3 player is unique as it shows proper SMPTE timecode. It also has the ability to set in and out points for clipping, create shot lists and export clips and shot lists with the added ability of transcoding. This is a first.”

Media Room was developed in-house by Silver Trak Digital to not only meet the demands of content aggregation, usage and delivery, but also to allow their customers to take advantage of the economies of scale as it securely hosts multiple clients’ data and provides a very affordable alternative to buying or building one-off content management and delivery systems.
Christiansen added, “The new Media Room 3 platform has the ability to overlay a canvas for annotations with the added functionality whereby markers and annotations created by several unique users can be exported as a single file based on timeline or user. In short, more functionality, more efficiency and a far more effective and useful user experience for our clients.”
Media Room, now entering its third development iteration has proved invaluable to many production and post production companies across Australia, including sporting enterprises, streaming channels, distribution houses and independent producers and companies.
The development of Media Room continues well into the future targeting and incorporating advanced technology innovations such as live stream capture, voice to text, facial recognition and AI integration.
