Stirlitz Media Logger

Stirlitz Media Logger is everything you can expect of a professional audio/video logger. It records multiple incoming audio and/or video streams, from any source (your own production console, or analog, digital, terrestrial or satellite and even Internet streams) for as long as you want, in the bitrates you need, even in multiple different bitrates per incoming stream. It warns you by sms, SNMP or email when a signal falls silent and it fully integrates with your play-out software.

But Stirlitz Media Logger is so much more. It is the most user friendly logging system on the market. SML users can forget about files, directories and calendars. The unique ?Timeline based? user interface makes accessing logs from different hours, days, months or years as easy as tuning an old FM radio! Just drag the Timeline to where you want to be and hit ?Play?.

The Stirlitz Media Logger also logs up to 64 video channels on one PC. You can instantaneously watch all video archives of all SML servers your SML Player has access to, regardless of where these servers are located. You can add as many servers to the SML Player as needed. All the user will see in his SML Players a list of available audio and video channels, alphabetically or grouped per server, and the video of those channels in the Timeline and dock-able screen. As always with Stirlitz Media, there are no folders, no filenames? just the Timeline with screenshot thumbnails of what has been recorded. You can combine the logs with (searchable) metadata from any source, add and share bookmarks, move through the whole depth of the archive, export the video with a simple click of the mouse.

When applied in a radio station, the Stirlitz Media Logger fully integrates with the play-out software and registers hardware based events (such as ?mike open?, or ?start cart?) it also stores all attached meta-data. So you can jump from DJ entry to DJ entry skipping the music, jump from one commercial block to the next, or only monitor what jingles have been used. You even see these different categories on your screen, together with the attached meta-data!
