A system is provided for dynamically managing a media production work package. The system includes a media production work package generator that builds a media production work package that includes media processing functions; and a processing function manager that generates function trackers that are each assigned to a respective one of the plurality of media processing functions and comprise a unique identity. Moreover, the system includes a function deployment manager that embeds the function trackers in the respective media processing functions, and deploys the media processing functions to resources available in a cloud computing network that includes both physical resources and software resources. A performance metric collector generates a graphical representation of respective total costs of each the deployed media processing functions and a work package controller generates a data point structure that uniquely identifies the deployed media processing functions and the total costs for each deployed function.

System and method for dynamically managing a media production work package for a media production

A system and method is provided for synchronizing media content in a media distribution network using timestamps. The system includes a decoder configured to parse a plurality of data packets of a media stream to determine a timestamp value for each video frame in the media stream; and a media content synchronizer. The media content synchronizer generates a media content timeline based on the determined timestamp value of each of video frame, generates the media content timeline based on a cadence having monotonic increasing count, determines whether each video frame of the media stream is a next frame in a video sequence of the media stream based on the timestamp value for the respective video frame, and repeats a previous frame in the video sequence to generate the media content timeline when a current frame in the video sequence was dropped based on the determined timestamp value.
