Consumption of media in the past few years has increased dramatically and, as a result, content creators are developing more video content than ever before. To meet expectations for high-quality video content, the creators and distributors of content must ensure their videos are compatible with a wide range of devices, resolutions, and formats.

The new Telestream Vantage iconik Connector is designed to streamline and simplify the ingest and transcoding process, ensuring rapid delivery and standardisation of files into the required formats, avoiding potential bottlenecks and complicated configurations that cost time and resources.

The Vantage transcoding solution utilises the latest technologies to deliver high quality, quick processing speeds, and extensive file format support. Dynamic decision-based workflows can be designed for any application, and with the Vantage iconik Connector, users will now be able to deliver high-quality results as well as more efficient workflows. With support for a wide range of formats and automated delivery options, users of the iconik platform can be assured that media access to those files will be faster with Vantage.

Through its new tighter integration with iconik, Vantage brings many features that make video asset management and processing smoother and more efficient.

“Ingesting complex media files while eliminating bottlenecks is a huge issue that users are always looking to mitigate,” said Rich Andes, VP product management, Telestream. “The new iconik Connector will provide faster media access and more creativity becomes possible when using a high volume ingest and transcoding product such as Vantage.”

With the Vantage iconik Connector, users will be able to easily ingest and transcode various types of video content, ensuring it is ready to manage, collaborate on, and share with teammates and clients across the globe. Transcoding with Vantage can be done in the cloud, on-premises, or in a Hybrid processing mode, and with iconik, assets can be managed across both cloud and on-premises storage from one place.
