Unparalleled editing flexibility
From rough cut to craft edit, VIA MAP and partners bring complete editing power to editors and journalists, at the speed of LIVE.

Cut

Search, browse and rough-cut assets for direct delivery or to prepare for post-production.

Create

VIA Create presents a familiar and easy to navigate interface, designed for efficient editing operations performed at the speed of live production.

VIA Ingest

Scheduled or on-demand crash recording across any record channel of an EVS production server. Users can even browse EVS Record Trains to use recordings in the past.

VIA Import

VIA Import enables browsing and importing of local media and camera cards, including ENG formats like P2 and XDCam, with full preview and rough-cut options available. Additionally, VIA Flow allows for automated imports based on watch folders.

VIA Record

VIA Record allows you to “Roll to Record” for multi-camera productions destined for both live and post-production. Templatized naming and metadata ensures consistent results.

VIA Log

Easily add time-based metadata to your assets, be it predefined tags or simple text. One entry can be deemed relevant to a single asset or a multi-camera grouping. These “locators” can be applied LIVE or at any time in the lifecycle of your assets.

VIA Melt

Used by media managers to prepare and initiate archive "melt" workflows, for example simplify the process of sending only the best angles from an Outside Broadcast (OB) production to archive, while preserving metadata and logs.

VIA Manage

Typically used by media managers for archive and purge activities, VIA Manage gives you full visibility of your assets and the various media components such as high-res, low-res and archive versions. Easily visualize what assets are used by whom and where including sub-clips and edited sequences including full support for Adobe Team Projects. Full audit logs of all actions taken against assets is easily visible and exportable.

VIA Link for Adobe

The Adobe plug-in integrates VIA MAP panels directly into the Premiere Pro interface. The Import panel provides access to the entire VIA MAP database, while the Export panel facilitates exporting Adobe Sequences to specific Play to Air or file delivery targets or workflows.

VIA MAP enables a unified ecosystem
of EVS solutions

With EVS MediaHub®, VIA MAP seamlessly connects live production to web-based content distribution, allowing content owners to maximize asset monetization. The platform provides rights-holders, sponsors, and digital media teams with easy access to content through an on-demand content acquisition portal. By leveraging metadata-enriched content, they can craft unique stories, enhance operational efficiency in content distribution, and fully maximize the value of their assets.
Through the integration with EVS LiveCeption®, VIA MAP connects live production and post-production teams, by seamlessly linking any remote production like OB trucks with production centers. This direct connection enables smooth multi-site collaboration, as multiple operators and editors can jointly work on the same production - previewing “in-place” and only pushing or pulling content, when needed. Metadata enrichment occurring live from the truck operators, allows editors in the production center to find, view, browse, and select the best angles of the action in real-time.
Using VIA MAP with Cerebrum enables automated router control, reducing delays, dependencies on other departments and the need for manual intervention. Together with Neuron, EVS's SDI and IP processing unit - it ensures all signals are routed to ingest servers in a compatible format. The combination of user-friendly and customizable interfaces, and the automation and processing of signal flows, ensures maximum efficiency and a lower total cost of ownership.
