Rights and usage, tracked on every single image
This is the part most image libraries leave to you, and it is where MP Photo Solutions does the hard work. Media Press is not the copyright holder of the artwork it aggregates, so instead of handing you images and leaving you to guess what you can do with them, every asset carries a complete, structured record of its rights and provenance:
- Where it came from: the source it was acquired from (agency, photographer or provider) and the copyright owner
- What licence applies: licence type and price level, and whether the asset is paid or free to use
- Where it can be used: territory and platform restrictions, and usage scope
- For how long: emission restrictions and any expiry date on the usage rights
- Usage flags: such as print-only, so digital use is clearly governed
Because every image travels with this information, you always know exactly what you may display, where, on which platform and until when, rather than carrying legal risk on artwork you cannot trace. That is what turns a pile of images into a library you can publish from with confidence.
More than an image library
Every asset is stored, catalogued and linked inside the Media & Image Hub, the visual asset layer of the MP Platform. Images are not handed over as a flat file dump. They are tied to the correct title, person or channel record, deduplicated, and rendered on the fly to whatever format your platform requires.
You do not manage resizing, cropping or format conversion: you request an image and get a stable URL and the right asset, every time. AI image enhancement handles face-aware smart cropping, super-resolution for lower-quality sources, and heavy file-size reduction with no visible quality loss.
It also respects how content owners want their artwork presented. Provider-specific visual rules — a studio's composition, branding or usage guidelines — can be enforced automatically per client, so what you display stays compliant with the owner's requirements.

FAQ
What image types are included?
Over 12 categories, including posters, key art, title cards, channel and title logos, stills, cast portraits, behind-the-scenes and cover art — all linked to the correct metadata record and deduplicated across the library.
How are images delivered?
Through stable URLs that integrate directly into your EPG, streaming catalogue or display layer, with no custom development on your side.
Can images be adapted for different markets and display formats?
Yes. On-the-fly rendering produces any crop, aspect ratio or resolution without storing separate versions, with face-aware cropping to keep the key subject in frame and super-resolution for lower-quality sources. Where localised artwork or title cards exist for a market, they are served accordingly.
How do we know what we're allowed to do with each image?
Every asset carries structured rights metadata: its source and copyright owner, licence type, paid or free status, territory and platform restrictions, usage scope, and any expiry. Because this information travels with each image, you always know what may be used where, on which platform and for how long.
Do you provide alt text for accessibility?
Yes. Each image carries a description field (with character and actor names where relevant) that can serve as an HTML alt attribute for screen readers.
