Nevada City, Calif.-based Telestream has released Version 5.0 software for its flagship FlipFactory product line, which automatically converts and transfers digital media files between professional formats and systems. The release adds two new products, FlipFactory Mobile and FactoryArray, and key features include support for Autodesk's Media and Entertainment systems.

Key components include intelligent load-balancing and job distribution, failover protection, database mirroring, and automatic recovery mechanisms.
"We're delighted to have Telestream develop on our Wiretap API," said Bill Roberts, director of product management for Autodesk's Media and Entertainment Division. "FlipFactory's new capabilities allow significant workflow advantages to broadcasters and post-production facilities by allowing Autodesk's systems to integrate directly with broadcast servers and automation systems."
