Here you can find our latest updates:
Subscription-based models
09/21/2020
We now support to reserve a fixed amount of storage capacity for your Cinestash. This can highly reduce your
resource costs.
Cinestash offers two different subscription models to maximize your profit margins. Not only the storage
gets cheaper,
but also the download cost will be reduced significantly.
Batch conversions and batch uploads are heavily discounted in the subscription-based models!
Please have a look at our pricing page to see all the benefits here.
To change from the Pay-as-you-go service to a subscription model just send your contact at KDMS an email or
call us.
New customers can order a subscription-based Cinestash in their onboarding phase.
Address book
08/31/2020
Many customers have asked for it, and finally, it's here: The Cinestash address book! Just start typing in
any recipient filed in the Cinestash-Client
- the software will automatically search for any recipients you have send any materials to. If the recipient
is known,
all the remaining fields in the mask will be filled by the address book.
The address book extension allows you to have as many customers as you want to keep organized and is a free
update to your Cinestash.
Just request a client update from your contact at KDMS.
Batch upload
08/10/2020
The new batch upload completes the Folder / Batch conversion process:
Uploading lots of files to your Cinestash or a large delivery to your clients has become super easy and
convenient.
It's a great solution for your business if you have to ingest or output lots of data.
Batch conversion
07/22/2020
The new and free Cinestash update gives you a powerful tool to mass convert your media files.
Until now you had to convert one media file after another to your client specifications.
This is now a matter of a few mouse clicks to transform 6 seasons with 100th of episodes of a series into a
new format!
The batch conversion feature complements the folder structure from the last update because now you can
create new masters from a whole folder.
The user interface is clean and clear, you can convert your batch video and audio easily and quickly.
This update is free for all our customers. Just drop your KDMS contact a line to get the new
Cinestash-Client.
Now we have: Folders!
07/03/2020
To improve your data organization in your Cinestash we have added a new folder feature.
As you know the first item in the overview is the [All Projects] folder, which contains exactly that: All of
your projects.
You can create as many (sub-)folders in the project directories as you want, and move the archives between
them.
In no time at all, you will develop your own folder structure that not only organizes your files superbly
but also keeps your archives within reach.
This type of project folder structure makes it easy for anyone to quickly find what they need.
The time you spend creating a simple, easy-to-use, logical, and easy-to-use folder system will be worth
it.
The design of logical folder structures for your team can make a decisive difference in your workflow.
Our plans for the fututre
We are constantly adding new features to our service.
Some of the features that we plan to implement within the next months are:
KDMS Shop
We will give you the possibility to create a simple shop for each of your films or projects. You can directly offer your clients the archives they are legitimized to have access to. The clients can select the files they need, and we will invoice them for the delivery. You won’t need to hassle with payments for the materials anymore.
Your Customers First
In the shop, your customers will be enabled to order material conversions the same way as you can do it now in the KDMS Cinestash application. Your customer may decide at any time to use your master material the way it is or have it optimized for their workflows. This saves you the time it formerly took to discuss delivery formats, order format conversions at your lab and invoice your client for these steps.
KDMS Upload App
We will create a dedicated upload app that you can send to your licensor or producer to upload their files directly to your storage. You won’t have to wait until they upload the file for you to put it in Cinestash. Instead, they upload it directly into your KDMS Cinestash, you convert it to a screener, and download it straight away. Or we deliver a personalized screener directly to your customers.
Automatic Technical Analysis
We are going to offer a cheap and automatic technical analysis of your media files to test it against major standards and common errors. This will reduce rejections and complaints from your clients and customers.
These are some of the features we want to implement before version 2.0. But there is much more to come.
