I recently gave a presentation about our work to the . The occasion was in Manchester, the latest in a series of gatherings for engineers working on the internet or other large-scale computer networks.

The audience were technical staff from ISPs (from the largest in the country to the smallest), telecoms companies, data centre operators and equipment vendors. Most are not directly involved in TV production, so the presentation starts with a brief introduction to the way most TV studios are wired up at the moment. It then outlines the benefits that could follow from moving the infrastructure away from specialised video and audio hardware towards using more standard general-purpose servers on an IP network, and looks at some of ±«Óãtv R&D’s work in that area.

The second half of the presentation focuses on high bandwidth uncompressed video as used in TV studios. As productions start to use and higher frame rates, each camera can produce many gigabits-per-second of data. I talk about to move these data streams efficiently and reliably between servers on the network. . You can also find from this and other UKNOF meetings on YouTube.
