NEW PARTNERSHIP BRINGS MOG TECHNOLOGIES’ ADVANCED INGEST TO MASSTECH MEDIA MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS

MOG Technologies, the leading provider of MXF and centralized ingest solutions, today announced that the company has forged a new partnership with Masstech Group, the trusted provider of innovative media asset management, archive and workflow solutions. The two companies have worked closely together to integrate MOG’s mxfSPEEDRAIL ingest systems with Masstech’s media management solutions, enabling efficient, cohesive, automated workflows spanning the complete media lifecycle from production and ingest to archive and distribution.

Masstech's proven solutions and advanced technologies enable media enterprises to flexibly and efficiently save, share and transform their content into valuable assets as they manage exponentially growing volumes of media. Organizations of all sizes rely on Masstech for file-based workflow solutions that tangibly improve their productivity while lowering their costs.

The integration with MOG mxfSPEEDRAIL provides Masstech users with a single, unified ingest point for file-based media and the SD-HD/SDI capture of live and tape-based content. Content and metadata ingested through mxfSPEEDRAIL are automatically moved and mapped into the Masstech system's database and storage, seamlessly available to all users and workflow processes.

“We’re pleased to be partnering with MOG to bring their highly-regarded ingest capabilities to our customers,” said Joe French, President and CEO of Masstech. “Our integration with mxfSPEEDRAIL brings our users all the capabilities of our earlier XT-Ingest option and combines them with MOG’s ongoing advances and focused ingest expertise.”

“By gathering both solutions we are providing the perfect match to address the needs of broadcast and media companies of all sizes,” said Luís Miguel Sampaio, CEO of MOG. “Masstech’s media management and storage management tools are perfectly integrated with MOG’s innovative ingest solutions, allowing users to achieve the highest performance in the most diverse file-based workflows.”

mxfSPEEDRAIL is the ideal solution for post-production, playback and file archiving applications as it integrates the essential components of the creation process into a single and unified platform, saving costs and reducing production time.
