ARRI Media, the postproduction branch company of the globally operating ARRI group, now uses TIXEL's transfer system at three facilities in Berlin and Munich for efficient file exchange in multiple production workflows. Terabyte large directories with high-resolution image sequences and video files of 100 GB and more need to be transferred between ARRIMedia locations on a daily basis.

New ARTE Media Contribution Platform with TIXEL File Transfer

ARTE GEIE has implemented a new version of their web platform “Partner” for contribution of co-productions and acquisitions. The platform for managing order information and exchanging media data integrates TIXEL's file transfer software TIXstream FX for convenient, secure and fast file exchange with ARTE's users.

Because of the universal concept and the easy to use REST API of TIXstream FX we were able to integrate TIXEL's acceleration components in our new platform in a very elegant and efficient way. Our users are excited and now benefit from significant shorter transfer times and convenient up- and downloads – also on poor internet connections.
