The Struggle With Generated Content

Like every other industry on the planet, broadcasting is struggling to strike its own balance over AI generated content. In the first of two articles we discuss the challenges facing broadcasters and how digital forensics, online services, and the big tech platforms are all playing a part. In part two…

Network Traffic Engineering: Head-Of-Line Blocking - Why QUIC Changes The Rules

Head-of-line blocking turns minor packet loss into visible glitches by stalling entire TCP streams until missing data is retransmitted. Eliminating cross-stream blocking by multiplexing independent streams over UDP, QUIC might be the answer for OTT delivery, cloud workflows and the adoption of microservices.

Streaming has introduced multiple viewer innovations and benefits, but there is always a hidden cost. Content providers must find a way to innovate within a financial model that can sustain their creative ambitions.

Network Traffic Engineering: Why MPEG-TS Is Still The Standard

MPEG transport stream (MPEG TS) was designed in the 1990s to deliver continuous video and audio over unreliable, one-way networks, such as satellite, terrestrial RF, and cable, where packet loss and corruption are expected. But it is still prevalent in modern broadcast facilities, especially those using IP.
