Omneon?
-
I think the original poster has a client that is using Omneon. If that’s the case, he HAS to use them. We have clients that have contracts with Vyvx. We can’t use another service just because we like them better, we have to use Vyvx to deliver the spots.
So I would imagine he has to figure out what Omneon’s specs are and deliver it that way.

We store all video files in their native format and optionally wrap the content in Quicktime or MXF (OP1A or OPAtom). The ability to play out the files will depend on the MediaPorts available on the system from which you want to play.
We’d be happy to help you with this, shoot me an email and I’ll get you to the most appropriate person, or check out the information on the web regarding MediaPorts at https://www.omneon.com/spectrum/mediaport.html

On a Mac you can use our MXF exporters, we have many customers using it with Omneon (D-10/IMX):

I think the frustration lies in the lack of clear information about how to get a sequence from a non linear edit station into the omneon (spectrum) server for playback. As editors, we’re creative professionals, not engineers. Although many of us have picked up considerable technical expertise over the years, I found the literature on file based workflow for omneon to be a little confusing.
What we want to know is exactly how to export from our NLE into your server.
At my shop, we use an omneon spectrum for HD (and SD) playback inside a control room. Although it did plug right into our existing SD workflow, I’ve found providing HD clips to be very difficult. We’ve had to experiment with several file formats and codecs.
If omenon plays quicktime files natively, which codec? What are the export settings for Avid, Final Cut Pro and Premiere Pro? Do we need a transcoding program like flipfactory, cleaner, sorrension squeeze or compressor. If so, what settings do those programs need?
