Beluga focuses on preparing content for playout and distribution. This is done by checking segmentation and program content, allowing for conformance editing, performing QC and generating reports. Beluga also adds transcoding and proxy creation to Marina’s existing toolset. With its web-based interface, teams on the Beluga can interact with the media.
Additional features for the Beluga include advanced traffic/schedule workflows; drag and drop workflow builder; media versioning and replacement; automated or manual file delivery to playout servers, with archive support; metadata synchronization to and from Marina; and integration with post editing systems.
Pebble offers the Beluga in different pre-defined configurations for different workflows, use cases and system sizes.
