Crispin - LoRez

LoRez, a low-resolution content encoding server, generates low-resolution proxy clips from video assets such as commercials and programs. In addition to proxy clips, LoRez has the unique ability to capture and store “Slates” from a variety of sources including catch servers. This additional veriﬁcation tool provides master control operators with another opportunity to verify video assets in the timeline. Authorized users can search for and view proxy clips and slates anywhere on the network via AssetBase, Crispin’s database application.

With LoRez, users no longer have to review and segment clips on their play-to-air server. This valuable resource opens up port space and reduces activity on the mission critical server.
