Multiple phase content ingest
Content ingest can comprise the storage of content and the logging of the descriptive and technical metadata necessary to identify and locate the content. The methods and systems provided herein relate to content ingest utilizing multiple phase processing to account for both standard and non-standard metadata.
1. A method comprising:
monitoring a storage location;
determining that data has been placed at the storage location;
retrieving the data;
determining that the data comprises standardized metadata and non-standardized metadata, wherein the non-standardized metadata comprises information that is absent from a recognized standard;
processing the data according to the standardized metadata to generate first processed data;
generating second processed data by processing the first processed data according to the non-standardized metadata to control one or more publication options; and
retrieving content identified by the second processed data.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the standardized metadata adheres to one or more of RSS, mRSS, AddContent, Cablelabs® ADI, or TV-Anytime standards.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the content comprises one or more of audio or video.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein one or more of the standardized metadata or the non-standardized metadata comprises a location of the content.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein processing the data according to the standardized metadata comprises extracting the standardized metadata as defined by a standard and mapping the standardized metadata to fields on a media object.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein generating second processed data by processing the first processed data according to the non-standardized metadata to control one or more publication options comprises extracting the non-standardized metadata according to a predefined set of processing rules and mapping the non-standardized metadata to fields on a media object.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising manipulating the content.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein manipulating the content comprises one or more of,
removing data from one or more of the standardized metadata or the non-standardized metadata,
performing remapping on custom fields,
adding new information to one or more of the standardized metadata or the non-standardized metadata, or
controlling media publication options or other workflow options.
9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising storing the content in a database.
10. A method comprising:
receiving data comprising standardized metadata and non-standardized metadata, wherein the non-standardized metadata comprises information that is absent from a recognized standard;
generating a first media object by processing the standardized metadata; and
generating a second media object from the first media object by processing the non-standardized metadata to control one or more publication options.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein one or more of the standardized metadata or the non-standardized metadata is associated with content.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the content comprises one or more of audio or video.
13. The method of claim 11 , wherein one or more of the standardized metadata or the non-standardized metadata comprises a location of associated content.
14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising automatically retrieving the associated content from the location.
15. The method of claim 10 , wherein generating a first media object by processing the standardized metadata comprises extracting the standardized metadata as defined by a standard and mapping the standardized metadata to fields on the first media object.
16. The method of claim 10 , wherein generating a second media object from the first media object by processing the non-standardized metadata comprises extracting the non-standardized metadata according to a predefined set of processing rules and mapping the non-standardized metadata to fields on the second media object.
17. The method of claim 10 , further comprising manipulating the second media object.
18. The method of claim 17 , wherein manipulating the second media object comprises controlling workflow options.
19. The method of claim 10 , further comprising providing the second media object to a content management system.
20. A system for managing content, comprising:
a memory; and
a processor, coupled to the memory, wherein the processor is configured for performing steps comprising,
receiving data comprising standardized metadata and non-standardized metadata, wherein the non-standardized metadata comprises information that is absent from a recognized standard;
generating a first media object by processing the standardized metadata; and
generating a second media object from the first media object by processing the non-standardized metadata to control one or more publication options.
