Actually to have a semi public facing drop zone where we could ingest, analyse and prep files for upload would be a good tool. Get it working right, and build in the right security, and I know of three or four real world production applications straight off- could even integrate well to DMI.If we do a production systems hack day this year I'd chuck it in the mix.aOn Mon, Feb 1, 2010 at 1:56 PM, Stephen Jolly <st...@jollys.org> wrote:On 1 Feb 2010, at 13:30, Ant Miller wrote:> Possibly- the specific file formats we need to encode to to upload to iplayer are pretty standard, but the way we make these films is using a 3rd party editor (he's great by the way). Delivering finished films from his home edit suite to us is proving maddeningly unreliable- a combination of his home internet connection, a Mac that refuses to even see some removable drives and a DVD Rom burner we are deeply suspicious of means that roughly half the films fail at some stage of the workflow.
