The “batch id” helps DVIDS identify where the item came from, when it was edited, and when it was published Units in the field use DVIDS transmitters to submit content to the DVIDS hub. All incoming content is tracked with what we call a “batch id”. DVIDS Media Specialists distribute content to TV stations, Radio stations, Print Media and more Through the use of DVIDS Web Site Applications, Teletrax Encoders, and TV Eyes, DVIDS360 is able to track the life cycle of a product with its “batch id” and report back to the unit in the field “What did you do with my products”

56. Teletrax Encoders All video played out of DVIDS is fed through one of three teletrax encoders. These encoders place a water mark on the video that is traced by Teletrax monitoring stations around the world and reports daily back to DVIDS on location, airtime, and audience sizes for all DVIDS video.
