[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\n\nTORONTO, Aug. 19 /CNW/ - YANGAROO Inc., (TSX-V: YOO, OTCBB: YOOIF) the\nindustry's leading secure digital media distribution company, has successfully\ndelivered the first full broadcast-quality music video utilizing its patented\nDigital Media Distribution System (DMDS) 5.0 in the United States. E1\nEntertainment in New York (AIM: ETO), a leading international entertainment\ncontent and distribution business, successfully delivered the Arkaea "Locust"\nvideo to major music video broadcasters. This is another significant milestone\nin YANGAROO's technology program to digitize broadcast media delivery\nworkflows and reduce reliance on the physical delivery of DVDs and Beta SP\ntapes.\n\n\nThe DMDS team worked closely with E1 to refine the process for digitally\ndistributing broadcast-quality music videos utilizing a process that includes\nthe enabling of the file for online availability across YANGAROO's DMDS\nnetwork for streaming and provision of a frame-accurate preview quality\nversion of the file with the time-code burned in. The full, broadcast-quality\nvideo file can be easily integrated into Online Editing Suites, On-Air\nPlayback Servers and stored in a Digital Archive Server. The files are 50mbit\nIMX in an MXF OP1a container that maintain both time-code and closed\ncaptioning for the underlying video.\n\n\n"Our friends at YANGAROO approached us about taking part in this digital\nvideo file delivery test and we just jumped at the opportunity.
