Modern broadcast facilities adopting video and audio over IP have found themselves working with thousands, or tens of thousands, of IP streams. Expecting humans to keep track of all these flows, monitor their quality and efficiently fault find is a virtual impossibility.
TRACAB has announced the launch of its state-of-the-art TRACAB Horse Tracking System (HTS), which uses advanced satellite tracking technology via GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) and real-time radio communications systems to improve data quality, accuracy, and latency in delivering key metrics from live horse races.
Compression is the ultimate enabling technology behind broadcasting. Without it, life would be very difficult indeed. In this new series, the whole topic will be explored at some depth.
The Alliance for IP Media Solutions (AIMS) and the Audio Engineering Society (AES) are partnering to present the Media over IP Pavilion at the AES New York 2022 show, scheduled for Oct. 19-20 at the Javits Convention Center in New York City.
In the final article in this series, we look at datasets, their importance and why GPUs are critical for machine learning.
Like a lot of new ideas in film and TV, high dynamic range pictures are easy to like. The fear is that they’re far harder to create. In reality, HDR isn’t necessarily a huge burden, certainly not in the way that stereo 3D can be. It’s often been possible to take well-shot images which were produced with no thought of an HDR finish, and make them available in HDR via a fairly straightforward re-grading process.
