The Cisco MXE 3000 Media Experience Engine is media-processing device that allows you to create different media experiences that you can share across the network from any source to any video endpoint. This network-based appliance also provides postproduction capabilities such as video composition, authoring, watermarking, and text and image overlays.The Cisco MXE 3000 uses market-leading technology to rapidly and reliably repurpose media assets for different media applications. With unparalleled reliability, it automatically ingests content from any source file, preprocesses it for optimal online viewing quality and experience, simultaneously encodes it into any number of web formats, and delivers finished files to servers or content-delivery networks for viewing.The Cisco MXE 3000 automates the critical workflow components for producing video-on-demand (VoD) content and scales in output capacity to provide the first automated enterprise-grade VoD production solution. The Cisco MXE 3000 supports pre-canned templates that you can apply to transcoding jobs, thereby significantly streamlining the operational overhead traditionally associated with media processing.The graphics capabilities of the Cisco MXE 3000 synchronizes video and metadata with graphic templates during transcoding to produce dynamic multilayered titles, branded graphics, subtitles, captions, and animations. Overlays are suitable for both small and large-screen applications.The Cisco MXE 3000 works transparently with a host of media applications. For example, content produced by the Cisco MXE 3000 integrates with the Cisco Digital Media System (DMS) solution, allowing you to upload and distribute processed content to a variety of endpoints using the Cisco DMS video portal.
