TapeWorks Texas Inc is available to you and your facility to answer your needs for your Media Workflow Solutions.

This starts with the Ingest of your media, Storage, Managing and finally Archiving all of your media assets.

Ingest with Telestream Pipeline Network Video Capture

Pipeline is an industry-first network-based video capture and playout device for moving SD & HD SDI video & audio in and out of Mac & PC file-based workflows. Pipeline offers a choice of encoding formats in a single box to handle your changing format needs. SD models encode to DV25, DVCPRO25, IMX, ProRes 422 and MPEG-2 I-frame. The HD model encodes to these plus DNxHD, DVCPRO HD and ProRes 422 HQ formats.

Storage - Studio Network Solutions

Evo is a complete, shared storage solution for video and audio workgroups. Evo enables everyone on your team to share projects, media and other large files using the most extensive connectivity options available in a single product – including up to 8 Gb/s Fibre Channel and up to 10 Gb/s iSCSI and NAS.

Developed specifically for post production workgroups, Evo offers a huge advantage in terms of connectivity and upgradeability – since it integrates a NAS and a SAN into one system, you get the benefits of both file-sharing and volume-locking. By including Fibre Channel, iSCSI and NAS into a single product, Evo assures that creative workgroups will have the best tool for every aspect of a project.

Asset Management - CatDV

CatDV is the award-winning asset management tool at the heart of your workflow, managing all aspects of a complete production.
* It is a logging tool, ingesting media from tape or disk, and enabling subclipping and tagging of the media to turn them into usable assets.
* It is a transcoding tool, automatically building offline proxies or web versions of your online media to save on storage and bandwidth.
* It is a powerful database, letting you browse and search and filter your assets until you find that one special shot that's just perfect.
Above all, CatDV is a communication tool, allowing loggers, producers and editors to work together effectively and efficiently.

If you want a flexible and cost effective content management system that allows your editors and producers to concentrate on the creative side of the process, rather than tedious file management issues, then you need look no further than CatDV server-based solutions. With the CatDV Workgroup or Enterprise Server you get all the features and benefits of the standalone CatDV application, but all the clip metadata needed to help you organise your project is accessible via a central shared database, letting you quickly and easily find any clip - whoever worked on it and wherever the media files are stored.

Archiving Solutions - CACHE-A

Cache-A’s LTO based archive appliances provide networked storage systems to professional video customers that are simple to deploy and allow users a way to easily transfer their content to secure, portable, exchangeable LTO tape cartridges

Cache-A archive appliances provide networked storage direct to LTO data tape. This solves a critical need in the Entertainment Industry by providing an economical, archive quality media on which to store file-based content. Every tape cartridge contains a directory of its content making each one a self-contained asset repository that can be shipped around the world and stored for long periods of time. The content can be retrieved regardless of the application or software environment that recorded it. This is important for both portability and longevity since the software and OS environment that recorded a cartridge may not be available across locations or may not persist in time for 10, 20, or even 30 years.

The Cache-A LTO-4 drive based archive appliances will hold 800GB per cartridge, equivalent to more than 60 hours of 25 Mb/s Standard Definition or more than 15 hours of 100 Mb/s High Definition (HD) content. Cache-A LTO-5 drive based appliances nearly double that capacity to 1500GB per cartridge. All Cache-A appliances can provide archiving via fast file transfers over Gigabit Ethernet at data rates up to 75MB/s and even faster using other transfer technologies such as direct attached storage.
