    autoBWF Release 3.4.0 Feb 19, 2020 Contents 1 Contents 3 1.1 Installation................................................3 1.2 Usage...................................................4 1.3 Configuration...............................................6 1.4 Auxilliary tools..............................................9 2 Known issues 11 i ii autoBWF, Release 3.4.0 autoBWF is a Python/PyQt5 GUI for embedding internal metadata in WAVE audio files using the Broadcast Wave standard, FADGI BWFMetaEdit, and XMP. Unlike the existing BWFMetaEdit GUI, autoBWF is extremely opinionated and will automatically generate metadata content based on file naming conventions, system metadata, and pre-configured repository defaults. In addition, it can copy metadata fields from a template file to avoid having to enter the same information multiple times for derivative files of the same physical instantiation. Also included are auxilliary command line scripts which simplify the creation of derivative files and provide for export of embedded metadata to PBCore and CSV files. Contents 1 autoBWF, Release 3.4.0 2 Contents CHAPTER 1 Contents 1.1 Installation 1.1.1 Prerequisites Python 3 This code requires Python 3.6 or later. If you are running on Linux or Mac OS, then it is almost certainly already installed. If you are running on Widows, you can install Python using instructions on any number of web sites (such as this one). You may wish to configure a virtual environment within which to install and run autoBWF. bwfmetaedit If needed, download and run the installer for the BWFMetaEdit CLI (Command Line Interface) appropriate to your operating system from mediaarea.net. Note that having the BWFMetaEdit GUI installed is not sufficient.

The Vantage workflow automation engine automates the entire process from ingest to delivery to the on-air server. Vantage can provide a single collection point for ingest, aggregation, and review of incoming HD syndicated programming. Powerful transcoding automates direct file transfer from the PitchBlue server to the on-air server at suitable bit rates and SD or HD resolution. This eliminates dubbing to tape and the need to manually process content. The PitchBlue server can be monitored for the arrival of new video content, the master control operator
