GV STRATUS enhances collaborative workflows

Continuing on from the great import rule capabilities introduced with GV STRATUS 3.5, we now explore a quick, efficient and user-friendly workflow to share content remotely and automatically import user-generated content into your GV STRATUS / K2 production system.

Multiple users can be uploading content from the field to a shared folder, directly from their iPhone, or any other mobile devices. Or pushing content received by email or downloaded from the web.

In our example, we use a DropBox shared folder and show you how easy it is to let GV STRATUS take care of the back-end tasks and make media available to all users in one single step.



GV STRATUS new import rules rock!

NEW IMPORT RULES WITH GV STRATUS 3.5

The latest release of GV STRATUS, v3.5 introduces the ability to automatically import media and metadata to your K2/STRATUS system based on workflow rules. 

Part of the GV STRATUS Workflow engine, import rules provide broad ability for importing virtually all file types including user generated content, syndicated "store and forward" file delivery systems, and still images.

The rules and scope criteria are configured in GV STRATUS Control Panel. This video tutorial explains
how: 


  • Rules will act on combinations of folder locations and file extensions.
  • Accompanying metatada can be mapped to GV STRATUS database and imported to custom metadata fields.
Video content can be imported in the native format, or it can be put through a transcode engine before being imported on to the K2 storage. GV STRATUS seamlessly integrates with various third party transcode solutions such as Telestream VantageHarmonic Promedia Carbon and Elemental.
