Netflix - Edit Timelines & Efficient Streaming of Media
Channel: Filmologic: Media Technology
Date: 2019-05-09

As media production becomes more distributed, filmmakers are looking toward cloud-based workflows. This introduces a new challenge in moving media in the correct format to the correct places, on time. Essential to this is understanding of all the material shot, what is actually used. In this talk, we’ll cover Netflix’s media mount tool for parsing Edit Decision Lists (EDLs) and efficiently streaming bytes from the cloud, why edit timeline awareness is essential, and how OpenTimelineIO can further enable these solutions.
