Media Logger

 
The worlds most versatile and user friendly media logger
Media Logger Server v3 logs audio and video and makes it available to the Media Player (Client interface).

We take logging seriously.

So, 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 and even in different bitrates per incoming stream. It warns you by sms or email when a signal falls silent and it fully integrates with your play-out software.
 
But Media Logger is so much more. It is the most user friendly logging system on the market. MLog 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'.

For client interface is simply using Media Player application with the unique Timeline based navigator and user friendly and intuitive controls.
Media Logger works as monitoring device when used with Media Inspector! 
 

No proprietary hardware required

Media Logger does not need proprietary hardware, it works with Windows compatible soundcards and integrates with every available playout software available on the market. It automatically archives your audio in different audio qualities and keeps those files as long as you have indicated, or moves it to other drives, network or FTP locations.
 
Media Logger even warns you by email and sms when for some reason it stops receiving audio.
 
And although you can browse the logs from your company network and from wherever you have access to internet, you still maintain full control over who can access what.
 
 

Media Logger is the ultimate solution for:

• capturing, analyzing and archiving audio and video streams from virtually any source (PAL, NTSC, Secam, FM, AM, DVB, DAB, DAB+, DMB, HDRadio, internet, satellite etc.)
• long and short term audio and video archiving
• checking your own program and to monitor competition
• air-checking your talent, or self-checking for talent
• fast and easy access to your and your competitors archives, from wherever you are
• syndicating and podcasting your audio
• analyzing your competitor playlists, recreating their clocks and track song/commercial airplay with Media Inspector
