Introduction: The Fully Integrated TV Production System
Introduction
The Fully Integrated TV Production System
Every broadcasting company, media production house and post-productionfacility can streamline their production and achieve a dramatic increasein productivity while saving costs and improving quality at the same time.Cinegy products offer a flexible, scalable solution that guarantees an earlyreturn-on-investment. Ordinary PCs used for day-to-day office business form
the platform for Cinegy software. When using Cinegy, the production processbecomes modernized, streamlined and less time consuming. Furthermore, the
content, which is the most valuable asset for any broadcaster, is fully utilized.

The Problem
The traditional production process using videotapesis inefficient, and any problem becomes increasinglymore uncontrollable and costly with the extension ofthe organization.
Large broadcasters create thousands of hours ofvideotape every month. Costs incurred by tapeduplication, distribution, storage, search and retrievalexceed millions of dollars for large broadcasters everyyear.
Hundreds and thousands of tapes vanish or are lostin such tape-based production environments. Varioussolutions exist that try to solve this problem, but theworkflow remains cumbersome and non-intuitive.Integration and deployment is difficult.
There has been no satisfactory standard solution
until now!

The Cinegy System Technology
The Network Structure
Scalability and Cost Efficiency
Only a Fast-Ethernet network connection to the Cinegy Archivemedia serveris needed. No additional,proprietary hardware or fiber channel network is required, just a computer specialist to maintainthe infrastructure. The use of the standard office PC as the platform of modern television productionallows quick and seamless deployment within the existing IT infrastructure.
Third-party, Legacy Integration and Interoperability
Cinegy GmbH produces a number of post-production, animation and 3D modeling applications that
can be integrated with Cinegy Desktop. Cinegy eXtreme is a high-end compositing, effects andanimation package, ideal for finishing productions created in Cinegy Desktop. By supporting standardEDL formats, Cinegy supports legacy NLE systems.
The Advanced Authoring Format (AAF) is fast becoming the new interoperability standard, allowingdifferent vendors solutions to exchange project data. This enables Cinegy productsto be integratedinto heterogeneous post-production and NLE environments wherever necessary.

Introduction: The Fully Integrated TV Production System
The Cinegy Components
Cinegy Desktop consists of several software as well as hardware components. They can all resideon different machines; some of them may be combined. Even a one-machine installation is possible.
TheCinegy Archive Content Server
The Cinegy Archive content server is a database server holding all the systems metadata in adatabase. The actual database used in the system may depend on your installation. Consult yoursystem administrator for further details.
The Cinegy Archive Media Server
This is a file server running any file system under any OS, containing the Cinegy media files. The actualchoice of the OS and the file system depends on your installed hardware base, preferences of yoursystem administrator, required size and performance of the media volumes.
The Cinegy Archive Document Server
The Cinegy Archivedocument server is a file server with an indexing feature, holding the non-mediaessences (file based documents) ingested in Cinegy Desktop.
Cinegy Desktop
Cinegy Desktopis the client logging, browsing and video editing software. It connects to the CinegyArchive servers to fulfill these tasks. This is a thin client, everything it does goes directly to the CinegyArchive servers.
IngestCinegy Desktopprovides full-scale support for ingesting any sort of incoming media:
tape ingest (via SDI and DV);
live ingest (via SDI and DV);
video files;
audio files;
direct CD ingest with CD DB support;
batch ingest, live and from tapes.
Cinegy IngestTheCinegy Ingest product provides most of the ingest features inside Cinegy Desktop. This modulehas its own system of sub-plug-ins, providing all the necessary features:
real-time compression to the required formats (for example, MPEG 1 &2, DV and WindowsMedia);
real-time ingest of any number of formats from the input stream in parallel;
the automatic scene detection, based on the content of the incoming video, as well as on thetimecode analysis;
on-the fly speech-to-text recognition with any Microsoft SAPI v 4 or 5 capable recognitionengine;
the ingested stream is available for editing and playout with the time lag less than 6 seconds.
Cinegy IngestCluster
The Cinegy Ingestcluster is an auxiliary technology, which helps Cinegy Desktop to ingest multiplevideo and audio qualities in parallel. It allows you to connect any number of machines in a cluster,
-

24/345
Page - 8 -
Cinegy User Manual v 9.5
working as a single very powerful computer. Normally, you would need to distribute such demandingtasks as MPEG compression or speech recognition over additional machines to achieve the requiredperformance.
Refer to the Cinegy Ingest Manualto learn more about this module.
Batch Ingest
The batch ingest is a plug-in that provides the ability to automatically create multi-session ingests.
Refer to theBatch Ingestchapter of the Cinegy Ingest Manualfor technical details.
Scheduled Ingest
This mode allows pre-planned scheduled ingests from a live feed. This is useful, for example, foringesting news feeds. The schedule is imported as a text file, which can be generated by anyscheduling program or created manually.
Batch Ingest from Tapes
This mode allows you to batch ingest using information from EDL or ALE files.
Logging
The logging plug-in provides HTML-template based logging. This module includes the followingfeatures:
You can create your own templates for every type of production: such as sports, documentaryor news. For example, a particular football template can include the player names and portraitsas well as the typical game situations.
You can describe and create the sub-clips from the footage currently being ingested as well asfrom the footage that has already been ingested.
Refer to theLogging chapter later in this manual to learn how to create and use the logging templates.
Cinegy Convert
Cinegy Convert is a separate server-based and batch processing service. You can use Cinegy Convertto perform the entire export and import job process in multiple formats, which gives you the power ofcentralized management, storage, and processing while lowering the client hardware requirements.
Cinegy Convert is designed to function like a network-based print server and can be used to performrepetitive export and conversion tasks by printing material to pre-defined formats and destinationsin any Cinegy Desktop through a simple drag-and-drop operation. Processing is performed on aspecified Cinegy Convert server that acts as a print queue/spooler, processing tasks in order.
Refer to the Cinegy Convert Manualfor details.
Cinegy Capture
Cinegy Capture is a separate product built from the ground-up as a totally independent ingest toolusing many of the industry-leading components developed for other Cinegy products. One or multipleinstances of Cinegy Capture can be installed as a self-starting service on a commodity server orstandard PC and configured to work with specified video hardware or IP streams. Once started CinegyCapture announces itself to the network as an appliance that is controlled remotely via a web-hostedapplication, meaning install free and cross-platform operation from Windows and Mac OS alike.
Refer to the Cinegy Capture Manualfor details.

instant update of the ENPS rundowns. As soon as a Cinegy clip or Sequence is inserted into astory in a rundown, the playout list in the Cinegy ENPS playout is automatically updated;
the selected item in the rundown list is pre-fetched to provide instant playback start;
all the necessary ENPS metadata (pages, rundowns etc.) are supported;
the tight integration is done via the MOS protocol.
Cinegy News
Cinegy News is a separate product providing you with the fully integrated the-end-to-end newsproduction and real-time playout solution.
Cinegy News is based on the Cinegy Archive MAM solution and uses Cinegy Desktop with its newfeatures for news production as the collaborative team production environment. It allows you toautomatically handle news feeds, write, review and approve the stories, edit video and audio in theintegrated system, record voice-overs, create rundowns, add graphics, template based titles andprovide the text for the teleprompter.
