The NEXIO Global Proxy solution is part of the Harris® NewsForce™HD/SD news platform. All NEXIO Global Proxy products contribute to a highly efficient low resolution workflow that:

• Eliminates the need for an expensive and complicated baseband infrastructure for proxy storage and management
• Facilitates simple and scalable browse viewing and editing in large low-resolution SANs
• Offers high-quality, high-performance, frame-accurate proxy encoding
• Provides flexible encoding options
• Speeds editing and play to air
• Simplifies media management

The PRX Encoder application monitors the high-resolution ingest channels for activity; when a recording is detected, it starts a frame-accurate proxy encode at the same time. When the high-resolution recording stops, it directs the low-resolution encode to stop as well. NEXIO AMP PRX Encoder runs as a background task showing current status of each ingest channel — no user interaction is required. All proxy files generated with NEXIO AMP PRX Encoder are universally accepted MP4 files stored on standard storage devices.

The H.264 MP4 proxy files generated by PRX Encoder are available for browse viewing with any standard media player. Alternately, due to the unique implementation of the global proxy file format, the MP4 files created by PRX Encoder can be viewed in Harris’ PRX Player or through the NEXIO Mediabase plug-in (NXMB) with all of the same metadata information that is saved with the high resolution files on the NEXIO SAN.

These MP4 proxy files are also available for editing with version 2.0 Velocity PRX proxy editors. Projects edited with Velocity PRX using global proxy files can be conformed directly to high resolution clips using the NEXIO InstantOnline III conforming engine or sent to Velocity ESX and/or Apple Final Cut Pro for high resolution finishing.
