AIBD Director Chang Jin welcomed all participants and said audio-visual contents are one of the most important assets to any broadcaster. Saving this precious data he said could mean a lot of financial saving. He then highlighted the main difficulties faced by the broadcasters to preserve their audio-video contents.
The workshop was divided into four sessions, which were preservation techniques and management of existing archives, digital solution for prevention and modern archiving systems, metadata and management of digital archives and case studies sharing experiences from broadcasters.
