Virtual Reality (VR) 360° content is still very new, but that does not make viewer expectations any more relaxed. If anything, the required quality level is even more important with VR content due to the expectations for immersiveness, which can be broken by just a minor glitch in delivery.
In 2014 the World Teleport Association (WTA) began certifying the facilities and operating procedures of teleports. Certification provides an objective and transparent way for teleport operators to validate the quality of their operations, and for customers to choose vendors that offer the right price-performance level for their needs.

Unfortunately, there are too many different HDR formats being touted, causing industry confusion about how to proceed, which in turn has delayed deployments.
Competition in the global video and media market is increasing with many more points of creation and distribution of content being made available.

As we migrate to IP, broadcasters are thinking about how they will interface their SDI, MADI, and AES systems together. Many see the benefit of IP and one day all devices will be IP-enabled. But until that time arrives, we need to understand how to interface new and old together. In this article we investigate real applications on how to connect existing and new technologies.
Next to the GUI, the most necessary transmitter maintenance tools today are a screwdriver and wrench to swap modules. There’s not much to fix with a soldering iron.
Throughout this series of articles, we’ve been investigating the detail of how OTT internet delivery works. In this article, we dig deeper into the operational systems, and investigate the additional benefits and necessity of monitoring.
