• Faster everyday workflows in EditShare One: Improved advanced search, metadata export, single-asset downloads, marker controls, transcript search, sorting and asset organization.
• Expanded automation and archive workflows: Export transcripts in multiple formats, restore only the required portions of archived media and retrieve archive tape barcode information automatically.
• EFS, Ark and ingest updates: New EFS Object Storage key management, Ark improvements and expanded FLOW Scan support for CSV, ALE and JSON sidecar metadata.

FLOW AI: More Ways to Find and Work with Content

• 13 supported languages: Scenes, Transcripts and Media Highlights can now be indexed and searched in English, Catalan, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, French, German, Greek, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish and Turkish.
• Transcript language selector: Users can switch between available transcript languages for an asset, with the original detected language clearly identified as Native.
• Multi-select AI results: Multiple Media Highlights, Scenes and Entities can now be selected and dragged directly into Projects, Bins or Sequences.
• Improved entity display: People and logos can be colour coded on the media player timeline, with bounding boxes also available in full-screen mode.
• Better entity management: Administrators can identify unknown people and logos, merge them with existing known entities, and rename known entities from System Administration.

The Result: Teams have more control over how AI analysis is searched and used when finding content and building edits.

Colour coded entity display

EditShare One: Search, Metadata and Editorial Improvements

• Advanced search with text queries: Users can combine a global text query with advanced filter rules across standard and custom FLOW metadata.
• Export metadata to CSV: Metadata can be exported directly from Search Results, with options to export selected or all items and visible or all fields.
• Download individual assets: Clips, images, audio and files can now be downloaded directly from the right-click menu, using either the original file or an available proxy.
• Improved marker workflows: Marker columns can be shown, hidden and reordered, including custom metadata, and a new thumbnail column provides a visual reference. Multiple markers can also be dragged into Projects, Bins and Sequences.
• Transcript search: Users can search transcripts for specific phrases, with matches highlighted and previous and next navigation controls.
• More flexible asset organization: Assets and bins can be renamed from the right-click menu, new folders can be created during upload, and asset lists and grids can be sorted by any column.

The Result: Everyday search, organization and metadata tasks are easier to manage directly within EditShare One.

Customizable markers

FLOW Automation: Transcript Export and
Smarter Archive Workflows

• Transcript Export: Transcripts from clips or subclips can be exported in Avid Subtitle, CSV, HTML, FLOW JSON, SRT, VTT and XML formats, with controls including frame rate, language and speaker names.
• Partial archive restore: Editors and archivists can mark In and Out points on a proxy or assemble a sequence, then restore only the required portions of archived high-resolution media using a FLOW Automation template.
• Tape barcode retrieval: FLOW Automation can retrieve the tape barcode from supported Telestream DIVA and Spectra Rio MediaEngine archive systems and write it to a custom metadata field.
• Project Clip Entry triggers: External automation triggers can now use Project Clip Entries created from markers or Media Highlights, including the clip name and In/Out timecode range.

The Result: Teams can automate more of the work around transcripts, archive restoration and downstream media processing.

Transcript export

FLOW Scan, EFS and Ark Updates

• CSV and ALE sidecar import: FLOW Scan can import CSV and Avid Log Exchange sidecar files as asset markers during media scans.
• JSON metadata import: Matching JSON sidecar files can automatically apply clip metadata, custom fields and marker tracks during scanning.
• EFS Object Storage: EFS Media Spaces can now be accessed by S3-compatible applications using the S3 protocol, alongside existing EFS and SMB access, with Object Storage key management available in EFS Control.
• Ark improvements: Tape pools can now be renamed, and Ark service discovery has moved to Consul for improved reliability and resilience

The Result: Teams can bring richer metadata into FLOW automatically, while simplifying storage and archive administration and improving Ark service resilience.
