Quantum Corporation announced that North Shore Automation?s Stats Injector is now fully compatible with Quantum CatDV, the media asset management and workflow orchestration platform used by broadcasters, sports leagues, and post-production teams world-wide, bringing automated, data-driven clip logging to live sports production workflows. The integration is designed to pull hyper-accurate play-by-play data directly from professional league APIs and automatically apply markers and metadata to video clips during ingest, eliminating manual logging and enabling instant retrieval of specific game moments across every camera angle. The Miami HEAT creative services team uses CatDV with Stats Injector to automatically log clips using the NBA?s statistics tagging format, enabling the 60-person production team to near-instantly locate specific plays across all available camera angles.
Stats Injector supports professional basketball, baseball, and U.S. football leagues, and is compatible with EVS, Evertz, and Telestream Lightspeed Live Capture ingest systems. North Shore Automation describes the approach as deterministic league API data, distinguishing it from probabilistic AI-based detection. The result is architected to provide hyper-accurate metadata applied at ingest speed with no manual intervention. The Stats Injector integration exemplifies the architectural advantage that has made CatDV a platform of choice for demanding content production environments.
CatDV?s on-premise, extensible architecture enables partners like North Shore Automation to build directly into the production pipeline rather than working around the constraints of cloud-based MAM platforms. Recent platform enhancements further strengthen this foundation: Pegasus Worker Clustering now enables the automatic distribution of processing jobs across multiple clustered worker nodes with a single configuration and task queue. Tag-based routing directs jobs to appropriate hardware resources, such as routing GPU transcoding to GPU-equipped nodes. Production teams can scale processing capacity by adding worker nodes, with built-in high availability designed to keep jobs running if a node goes offline.
Azure Cloud Support enables CatDV Server and Worker to be installed on Azure Cloud Compute, with direct ingest from Azure Blob Storage, proxy playback without downloading, and the ability to archive to Azure Blob with storage tier selection (hot, cool, or archive) managed directly from within CatDV. Expanded Cloud Archiving Support has been added for Dell ECS and NetApp StorageGRID. A new Generation 3 plugin for Quantum ActiveScale and AWS S3 adds performance tuning options for cloud transfers including concurrent request limits and block size configuration.
AI-powered facial recognition is now available through Amazon AI 2.0, supporting user-trainable facial recognition via AWS Rekognition. Quantum will be meeting with customers and partners at NAB 2026, April 19?22, Booth N1726. North Shore Automation specialists will be available in the Quantum booth by arrangement to discuss data-driven media production workflows.
