Recommended video production scenarios
Pre-production
Pre-production: Best video file management solution for DIT – raw footage on-site editing and powerful video transcoding
DIT (Digital Imaging Technician) is the keyman to take responsibility of video file management on shooting site in a frontline video production team.
DIT can quickly import large raw footage from camera SD cards to the TBS-h574TX through USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) ports and proceed with video transcoding on the NASbook. In addition to saving RAW files, DIT can easily share small files with remote teams for instant discussion and confirmation, or save files to external hard drives or cloud storage.
The TBS-h574TX comes with a built-in HDMI output, allowing on-site personnel to immediately play raw footage from the NASbook on a large screen. The team can also complete the rough cut on-site using Thunderbolt 4, significantly reducing the post-production team’s workload.
Benefits for a pre-production team:
⢠Fast file import from SD cards to NASbook
⢠Store small files to myQNAPcloud Storage
⢠Remote access and sharing video files
⢠High-resolution video display using HDMI output
⢠Rough cut on-site using Thunderbolt 4
Post-production
Post-production: Productive team collaboration
NAS is way more collaborative than DAS. The TBS-h574TX provides Thunderbolt 4 and 10GbE connectivity that allow the post-production team to edit video files directly from the NASbook, without waiting for files to move from drive to drive, computer to computer.
Once the post-production team finishes current video editing projects on the TBS-h574TX, they can save the final files to a USB DAS (such as TR-004) to free up the NASbook’s storage space for the next project!
Benefits for a post-production team:
⢠Directly connect the NASbook to Mac via Thunderbolt 4
⢠Directly connect the NASbook to Windows workstations through 10GbE and 2.5GbE connectivity
⢠File storage and backup by connecting a DAS through the high-speed UBS 3.2 Gen 2 ports
Remote collaboration
Remote collaboration: Hot-swappable M.2 SSDs facilitate file sharing for collaboration and delivery
Due to the difficulty of sharing large media files over networks, remote teams often resort to physically exchanging files by using external hard drives. Now the TBS-h574TX also offers a portable file exchanging/delivery solution.
