File and Network Servers White Papers

Enabling Network Interoperability between Video File Servers: the SMPTE 360M General eXchange Format (GXF)

Overview The availability of high speed network transports worldwide make it practical and economical to exchange files over data networks making delivery of material faster and more convenient than ever before. With a network transfer, not only can a single user initiate the dub, but all of the metadata associated with the clip is also transferred avoiding retyping of basic information. Distribution of commercials using IP over satellite, as well as exchange of news stories via wide area networks, is now commonplace and is replacing both tape and analog satellite transponders as a distribution medium. File transfer allows the user to control cost by selecting a transport medium appropriate to the urgency of delivery. Options range from transfers that may be slow but free-of-charge via the web, to extremely fast transfers over a high speed ATM connection.
