Digital Library System

Datavideo DLS-1000 Digital Library System

The DLS-1000 is a cost effective and easy to use digital library system software and is the ideal solution for video archiving. It utilises picons, metadata and automatically generated
low resolution WMV files for easy browsing of archived footage via a web browser. Original files are stored and mirrored on the NLD-1000 external hard drive solution, ensuring data is
secure at all times.

DLS-1000 Features:
  • WMV and picons are automatically created during ingest
  • Metadata can be added by the user during ingest
  • Simple web based search engine
  • Internet & Ethernet access to low resolution preview files
  • Supported file formats: DV25, HDV (.m2t) MPEG 1 & 2,
    QuickTime, (.MOV), HQWMV
  • Mirrored backup
  • Perfect for Video On Demand applications
  • Extremely affordable archiving solution
  • Attach up to three files to each video clip (e.g. text documents, images etc.)
NLD-1000 Features:
NLD-1000 is a mass external storage device, communicating with DLS-1000 via USB 2.0. Each NLD-1000 module contains twelve SATA drives and up to a total of sixteen modules can be daisy chained, allowing for a total of 192 harddrives to be connected to one system.
The supplied disk management software independently powers up each drive as it is required, reducing heat, drive wear and noise. Files stored in thNLD-1000 are protected by data mirror and regular software diagnostics to keep all files in a healthy state. All of these features contribute to an inexpensive and reliable storage solution.
Easy System Expansion
The DLS-1000 can be built to any size to meet any system requirements.
Multiple NLD-1000 can be add to expand storage as needed.
Secure Data
The original high resolution files are stored and mirrored on the backup drive, while the low resolution .WMV files are instantly available for browsing.
Easy Archiving
During ingest in the original format, the DLS-1000 automatically produces a low resolution WMV file, which enables easy browsing. The WMV file is linked to the original high resolution file, for automatic retrieval in high resolution.
Supported Formats
DV25(.avi), HDV(.m2t), VCD MPEG-1 (.dat .mpg), DVD MPEG-2 (.vob .mpg), Quicktime MOV formats.
User Interface
During ingest DLS-1000 automatically creates a picon for each scene within the movie. Scenes can be instantly accessed by clicking on the picon.
User Workflow
Users can browse the low resolution .WMV file via the web interface. Sequences can be marked, for download, and a request can be sent to the system administrator, who can then download the sequence from the original file.
LAN & WAN Access
Users can easily search through the movies over LAN or WAN. Search and queries can be carried out visually or via metadata.
Scalable Storgage Capacity
Up to seven NLD-1000 can be installed into a 41U rack cabinet giving the DLS-1000 storage capacity of 42TB.
Metadata
During ingest users can add custom metadata for each movie, this metadata is then used by the search engine to list matching movies.
