Medical Records Digitization


Video Labs is expert in digitizing data. Our professionals specialize in turning your patient records into digital images that can be stored on CDs, DVDs or on a server. This allows your office to go full or partially paperless. We also provide pre-labeled discs such that medical offices can simply transfer data from one source (x-ray for example) to another (blank media/disc). It is much more efficient and cost effective to have a patient leave a medical office with his/her x-rays on a disc rather than the individual leaving with bulky and expensive film. We understand the importance of quality, accuracy and consistency for medical record digitization. Let Video Labs save you time and money by digitizing your medical records.

Video Labs Adds HD SpoTTrac Encoder For Broadcast Tracking


Video Labs, the 33 year old Rockville, MD based media services firm has added an HD SpoTTrack solution that encodes Audio/Video content with Nielsen Media Research identification information. While the company is supporting its customers with disc authoring (including Blu-ray), caption encoding, duplication/ replication, HD conversions, digital file transcoding, postproduction and media packaging, Video Labs continues to be at the forefront of creative firms that support virtually every media service in the world.

After the inputs are captured, buffered and processed, SpoTTrac outputs audio and video for recording in real-time.

The service of applying signals for tracking purposes allows Video Labs to support its clientele in their quest to secure maximum broadcast air time. Customers seeking verification of broadcast air time, be it public service announcement (PSA), video news release (VNR) or electronic press kit, seek Video Labs help in applying pertinent tracking signals to their master source.

QR Not ER


If ER stands for emergency room, what does that have to do with QR? And what is QR? I'm glad you asked. QR, or quick response, as reported in Wikipedia, is a specific matrix barcode (or two-dimensional code), readable by dedicated QR barcode readers and camera phones. The code consists of black modules arranged in a square pattern on a white background. Information encoded can be text, URL or other data.

QR codes storing addresses and URLs may appear on magazines, signs, buses, business cards, or on just about any object which users might need information. Users with a camera phone containing the correct reader application can scan an image of some QR Code to display text, contact information, connect to a wireless network, or open a web page in the phone's browser.

What does this all have to do with media services? Another good question from the peanut gallery. Think about this...................your looking for as much exposure as possible for a beautifully produced PSA. Sure, SpoTTrac encoding will enable Nielsen to track airplay. However, if more than just TV viewers were able to learn about your PSA, wouldn't you cherish the extra attention? Of course you would. Adding a QR code to PSA materials will grab the extra viewership you're seeking.

It's simple, really. By request, Video Labs can add a QR code to your disc, label, insert, wrap, whatever. This QR code will then link to your website of choice. Adding this QR code will enable you to capture an audience consisting of millions of mobile users. Simple, inexpensive and an effective way to bring added attention to your message.
Uses for QR codes...............

- Add to the face of an audio disc and users will learn how to buy more of your music.
- Place on a DVD wrap which holds a documentary and your audience will have another means to peek behind the scenes.
- Apply to a corporate message and give co-workers or clients a chance to better understand recent activities within your organization.
- Situate a code on to a piece of art and the viewer of that piece can link to a narrator describing what inspired the artist.

Focused on your media? Yep. That's why you partner with Video Labs.

Contact Video Labs today and we'll get you set up with QR.
