Zaandam, The Netherlands – WoodWing Software, a supplier of cost-effective and highly scalable solutions for cross-media and tablet publishing, today announced technology partnerships with the Dutch company VidiGo and the U.S.-based developer XDAM. The partners will integrate their products with WoodWing's cross-media publishing system Enterprise and its content management module Content Station. Both companies exhibit their solutions at WoodWing's booth at the IFRA Expo taking place from October 4-6, 2010, in Hamburg, Germany.

Broadcast-quality audio and video content made easy
VidiGo develops and markets innovative solutions for creating and managing broadcast-quality audio and video content.

The company provides all needed components – from ingest and asset management to live production and play-out. VidiGo's solutions are designed so that everyone can plan, design and produce audiovisual content easily and quickly in a cost-effective way.

Editors and photographers connect live worldwide
XDAM is a multimedia submission portal that provides rapid uploading, news/live-event editing, approvals and delivery. LiveShoot, one of XDAM's core features, creates and manages a LiveConnection between the editor and the photographer or submitter. Images and videos are viewed seconds after they are shot anywhere in the world.
