Background:
Muchly’s team has deep experience stabilising media pipelines. This engagement focused on standardising how karaoke tracks are prepared and delivered so releases go out faster and with fewer issues.

Challenge:
A large catalogue, mixed file formats, and platform‑specific requirements made the workflow slow and inconsistent. Manual steps led to errors, metadata mismatches, and failed uploads. The client needed one dependable path from ingest to publish, with clear status and audit.

Solution:
We delivered an end‑to‑end pipeline that runs in the client’s environment and fits their catalogue systems. The focus was predictable processing, clear observability, and simple operation by the internal team.

• Orchestration & visibility: Track progress end‑to‑end, re‑run from any stage, and audit every action.
• Ingest: New assets are detected and queued with checksum verification and basic QA.
• Transcode: Consistent presets produce the formats each streaming/download platform requires.
• Metadata: Titles, artists, artwork, and lyrics are normalised and validated against the catalogue.
• Packaging: Platform‑specific bundles are created with automated QC (duration, loudness, resolution).
• Distribution: Secure delivery to streaming origins and download repositories with retries and resume.

Results:
Time to publish dropped and failed uploads decreased. Releases went out consistently across platforms, and operators spent less time on manual fixes. The client owns the code and configuration, can add new platforms as needed, and runs the pipeline on their infrastructure with clear runbooks.
