| 8 | Introduction |
|---|
| 9 | ============ |
|---|
| 10 | |
|---|
| 11 | Telemeta is a web audio archiving program which introduces useful and secure methods to |
|---|
| 12 | backup, index, transcode, analyse and publish any digitalized audio file with its metadata. |
|---|
| 13 | It is dedicated to professionnals who wants to easily backup and publish documented sounds |
|---|
| 14 | from collections of vinyls, magnetic tapes or audio CDs over a strong database, |
|---|
| 15 | in accordance with open standards. |
|---|
| 16 | |
|---|
| 17 | Here are the main features of Telemeta: |
|---|
| 18 | |
|---|
| 19 | * Secure archiving, editing and publishing of audio files over internet. |
|---|
| 20 | * "On the fly" transcoding and metadata encapsulating (FLAC, OGG, MP3, WAV, etc..) |
|---|
| 21 | * User friendly web frontend including workflows and high level search methods |
|---|
| 22 | * Smart dynamical and skinnable audio player (thanks to Timeside and soundmanager2) |
|---|
| 23 | * "On the fly" complex audio analyzers based on an easy plugin architecture |
|---|
| 24 | * Strong SQL backend |
|---|
| 25 | * XML metadata backup |
|---|
| 26 | * Auto audio-marking with synthetized voices reading metadata (optional) |
|---|
| 27 | * Anti-corruption data security management with par2 recovery keys |
|---|
| 28 | * Data synchronizing over remote servers (rsync + ssh methods) |
|---|
| 29 | |
|---|
| 30 | The Telemeta data model is based on 'collections' and 'items'. A collection is described |
|---|
| 31 | by its metadata and includes original audio items (sounds) and its own metadata. This |
|---|
| 32 | existing model has been designed to fit the one of the French Centre of Etnomusicology (CREM) |
|---|
| 33 | but could be easily adapted/overrided to sue other data structures. |
