Asset basics

As a tool for Media Asset Management (MAM), the assets are the core of Media Pocket. Media Pocket supports different types of assets, such as images, videos, audios, and documents. The main purpose of Media Pocket is to support the management of large media files. The asset types have distinctive features. All assets include metadata.

The asset title is located in the upper-left corner of the asset card, on its own row, with a white font color (as shown in the sample below: 001175070018.jpg).

The Mediainfo tab shows automatically only the fields that are populated
Selected fields (keywords, creator, and copyright) are searchable with a global word search and some (creator, copyright, resolution, framerate, filetype, filesize, and duration) are searchable with filters under EXIF/IPTC tab.

History

Purpose: Log. Shows all the modifications and workflows done to the asset.

Comments

Purpose: Enable collaboration by allowing all users with access to the asset to comment. Users can manage their own comments, having the option to delete or edit them. Members and guests can be tagged in the comments (with @ and name). The comment section provides search and filter functionalities for easy navigation. In audio and video files, comments can be timestamped for a more precise referencing.

Attachments (Child assets)

Purpose: Add attachments such as subtitles or text files to assets. While users can view child assets in Media Pocket, they won't appear in the search function unless enabled in search settings. In the attachments section, child assets are listed and can be easily opened by clicking. These child assets share similar functionalities as normal assets, and the parent asset is visible in the breadcrumb trail.

The attachments indicator provides a quick overview of how many attachments the asset has. For video assets with VTT-formatted subtitles, users can conveniently display the subtitles using Media Pocket's player. To add subtitles, simply click the three dots on the bottom right corner of the player and select the subtitles button.

Custom Fields

Purpose: Customize search functions and add relevant information to the assets.

AI analysis

Purpose: Better findability, tagging.

Automated AI analysis is a default feature for all users and account types, specifically designed for images. The analysis generates a list of keywords that can be assigned as tags, along with a confidence percentage indicating the AI's certainty with each keyword. When the AI match confidence is 80% or higher, the search engine identifies and retrieves the relevant images. For faces, the AI extends its capabilities to detect emotions and recognize celebrities, providing accuracy percentages for each.
