Harris licenses MXF suite from MOG Solutions

Harris has purchased a group license for the MOG Solutions MXFComponentSuite, which will enable many Harris products to have faster MXF compatibility through unified and optimized workflows.

The first Harris product line to incorporate the MOG MXFComponentSuite technology is the family of NEXIO HD/SD video servers.

The MXFComponentSuite is a set of MXF-enabled components that abstract the application layer from the details and complexity of the MXF format using simple application programming interfaces. Enabling transfers of pictures, audio and metadata across a file-based system, this MXF interchange toolkit will minimize file inconsistencies and provide Harris NEXIO server users with a reliable and simple means of handling both SD and HD MXF files.

The MXF interchange toolkit will provide a media wrapper that improves workflow by enabling Harris’s servers to better interface with third-party equipment, said Tim Thorsteinson, president of the Harris Broadcast Communications Division.
