Pebble Beach and Tedial join forces to launch Multiverse

A historic alliance between both companies has allowed the development of a powerful solution that combines media, distribution and playout management in both linear and non-linear ecosystems while providing a unique platform for the preparation of VOD content.

Pebble Beach Systems y Tedial They have announced a historic alliance. As a result of this collaboration agreement, both companies will present at IBC 2016 a new solution called Multiverse that is designed to create a seamless workflow between media management (MAM) and broadcast systems, thus responding to the new challenges of content and channel distribution in both linear and non-linear environments.

Multiverse tightly integrates the capabilities of powerful MAM and linear playout systems to provide a flexible delivery and cross-platform media preparation solution. Because media processes are increasingly complex in a platform environment, Multiverse was born to unify and accelerate linear and on-demand content workflows, significantly reducing operational costs by automating everyday tasks.

Multiverse provides complete integration between MAM and automation, streamlining workflows such as delivering live events to VOD services in the shortest possible time after going on air. For version control of media assets and their immediate replacement, the system allows you to create different versions of multimedia resources for playout by automatically creating and adding them to Tedial. This triggers the Pebble Beach Marine platform to delete the old assets from your playlist and move the new one up to streaming, all without human intervention.

Tom Gittins, CEO of Pebble Beach, acknowledges that "we are aware of how customers have to adapt their systems to ensure efficient media preparation in both linear and non-linear. By leveraging the proven integration between Pebble and Tedial and the definition of specific workflows, we believe that Multiverse provides broadcasters with a no-compromise solution."

Esther Mesas, director of sales and marketing at Tedial, maintains that "'TV everywhere' is a reality that has completely changed the landscape. To ensure success in this new multi-platform, multi-format world there are challenges that media companies must overcome. Multiverse responds to these challenges, offering a complete and secure solution for the preparation of multi-platform media and its delivery. We are very pleased to demonstrate Multiverse at IBC 2016, highlighting its unprecedented capabilities and scalability to maximize the monetization of content, and distribution in all formats and platforms.”
