Maximizing the Potential of Legacy Content in New Media Asset Management Deployments

摘要

Media asset management systems provide excellent tools for managing new content that you ingest and create, but they are often limited in their ability to manage legacy content that existed before the asset management system was commissioned. Tape access standards such as the Linear Tape File System and advanced file wrappers enhance asset portability and interchange going forward, but additional technology is required to address legacy archives and leverage metadata in their associated databases. Meanwhile, the ability to use unstructured metadata, including related documents and closed captions, can provide the asset management system with rich, otherwise-unavailable metadata for legacy content without significant manual effort.
