mpx Goes Gold
Today, thePlatform released the gold version of mpx, a true enterprise-class video management system.
We’ve been steadily improving mpx Beta since it launched early this year, and the new features accompanying today’s mpx release reflect a decade of experience and input from our customers.
Since 2000, we’ve focused on making video management easier, powering more monetization models, and delivering enterprise-class performance to our customers and superior video experiences to their audiences.
This decade of experience has resulted into today’s mpx, the next evolution of broadband video management. Because we “get” the work of content producers and editors, we developed mpx to be the convergence of an efficient user interface model with the most mature, flexible online video management technologies.
You can get the run-down on today’s launch in the mpx Release Notes. But here’s a look at some of the features you’ll see when you log in.

Thumbnail capture. To capture a thumbnail from a video, you can drag the scrubber and the image will update to that position. For precise frame-by-frame control, you can use the left and right arrows on your keyboard.
If you find that the preview player isn’t giving you the detail you need for precise capture, all of this can be done in a full-screen view as well.
Chapter creation. Add a Chapter field to your media panel so that editors and producers can add chapter start and end times, titles, and thumbnail URLs.
User-friendly reports. Usage reports now give you both graphic and table views for your data. You can use one or two pivot points based on values such as date, media metadata, file metadata values, and context.
To narrow down your report, you can search by title, asset type, ad policy, or other field ID. For example, this graph shows Date and Title data, and is narrowed down to two media.
With all of the combined pivoting and search options, there are over 130,000 possible charts. We think that’s pretty cool. Once you’ve got a report, you can copy the table to the clipboard, or export the data as CSV.
With the Ingest Service now integrated into mpx, adding ingest adapters and using Watch Folders and Feed Readers has never been easier.
