It’s hard to visit any kind of media industry event at the moment without seeing the word “cloud” everywhere. But what does it really mean? What benefits does it really offer? And why do we need it at all?
Latency has risen up the agenda as video streaming has progressed and measures taken to tackle it have been offset by proliferation of content, imposing strain on CDNs and delivery infrastructures. The key to successful control of latency lies in sifting its different components, identifying specific issues, and addressing those within the overall end to end delivery chain.
Matrox Video has announced the launch of the LUMA Pro Series, a new line of graphics cards powered by Intel Arc GPUs. Engineered to power digital signage and video wall systems, the low-profile LUMA A310FP and the standard-height LUMA A380P offer the ultimate display flexibility, supporting up to two 8Kp60, two 5Kp120, or four 5Kp60 DisplayPort 2.1 monitors. They can also be combined to drive a high-density-output video wall of up to 16 synchronized 5Kp60 displays.
Welcome to Part 1 of Audio For Broadcast - a huge 16 article audio course that explores the science and practical applications of audio in broadcast.
To deliver resilient, flexible, and scalable infrastructures broadcasters must accept failure and design their systems to recover quickly from it. Measuring success is critical to understanding points of failure in parallel and serial workflows, and in part 2 of this series, we dig deeper into measuring resilience to quantify design infrastructure decision making.
How AVB, AES67 and proprietary solutions like Dante address the challenges of using asynchronous internet networks to distribute audio.
IP is an enabling technology that allows broadcasters to integrate software solutions into their workflows. However, the plethora of SDI and IP workflows that are now coexisting in broadcast infrastructures means that technologists and engineers must look for new methods when designing their facilities, especially when considering the real-time nature of live captioning.
This is the first of a multi-part series exploring the science and practical applications of RF technology in broadcast.
