Not all streaming and social platforms are built the same. We look at how we got here and what the differences are when uploading video content to streaming platforms and social media services.
These algorithms fall under the general heading of statistical analysis.
These are training methods and the algorithms that are appropriate to deploy when using them. Conversely, choosing an algorithm determines the training method you should use.
What is a Media Type Identifier and why do we need them? We explore exactly that, and explain why they are fundamental to IP-based production.
Streaming is displacing traditional broadcasting by delivering content via IP networks using edge servers, adaptive bitrate techniques and a variety of different protocols. We look at what standards you need to be across, as well as where to find them.
Traditional linear broadcasting is evolving into on-demand streaming, but DVB standards still underpin terrestrial, satellite and cable transmission worldwide.
Elementary streams carrying audio, video and metadata are combined into program streams, which are then multiplexed together into transport streams for broadcast. Here’s how it all works as well as what you need to plan for.
Delivery specifications define how production studios should package and submit finished programs and can cover everything from video codecs, audio stems and metadata manifests to epilepsy testing and file-naming conventions. Here we uncover some of the key themes and explain how building a superset of assets from the outset can save money.
