Broadcast and IT engineers have historically approached their professions from two different places, but as technology is more reliable, they are moving closer.
Sophisticated IP infrastructure requires software layers to facilitate network & infrastructure planning, orchestration, and monitoring and there will be plenty in this area to see at the 2024 NAB Show.
The 2024 NAB Show will see the big names in audio production embrace and help to drive forward the next generation of software centric distributed production workflows and join the ‘cloud’ revolution. Exciting times for broadcast audio.
As broadcasters embrace remote production workflows the technology required to compress, encode and reliably transport streams from the venue to the network operation center or the cloud become key, and there will be plenty of new developments and sources of expertise on the 2024 NAB Show floor.
Here is our run down of some of the technology at the 2024 NAB Show that eases the burden of achieving effective workflows that simultaneously support multiple production and delivery video formats.
Of all of the broadcast standards it is perhaps SMPTE ST 2110 which has had the greatest impact on production & distribution infrastructure in recent years, but much has changed since it’s 2017 release.
OTT streaming is embracing AI for consistency in QC across expanding populations of devices, with a particular emphasis on live sports. There is also a focus, evident at the 2024 NAB Show, on optimization of delivery at low latency to ensure broadcast quality experience while reducing infrastructure costs.
At the 2024 NAB Show key themes for camera vendors seem set to be software powered flexibility, simultaneous SDR/HDR workflows, cinematic production and of course, remote & ground to cloud contribution.
Monitoring vendors are focusing more than ever on quality and compliance at NAB 2024, incorporating AI tools with machine learning. The requirements of cloud storage and IP based distribution loom larger than ever before, with greater modularity and more scope for purchase of standalone products, while also catering for centralized control…
Here is our run down of some of the technology at the 2024 NAB Show that bridges the worlds of SDI and IP, enabling users to leverage the best of both worlds and open the potential for integration of cloud and AI powered systems.
