UHD and IP Live Production Workflow
Using Light-Weight Compression

By Chuck Meyer
CTO for Production at Grass Valley

At The Society of Television Engineers

 
With the rise of UHD and the demand for more bandwidth rapidly increasing, a scalable solution for live production television is greatly needed.  A solution which can be workable now and survive into the foreseeable future can be achieved with the magic ratio of 4:1.  This magic ratio is the compression ratio of TICO, mezzanine compression algorithm that offers the speed and quality needed for live production applications.

This STE September event will cover where and when to use compression in general and the value of adding lightweight compression to your workflow, regardless if your infrastructure is SDI or IP, providing a scalable solution that will enable UHD/4K on one wire.  The qualities of a successful compression algorithm will be discussed and common issues, such as timing and latency, will be addressed.

Chuck Meyer is the CTO for Production at Grass Valley and is actively involved with IP technology for live production applications.  He is working on developing future IP based standards for the industry as part of the Video Services Forum.  Mr. Meyer began his broadcast career with Grass Valley and moved to NVision and then Miranda, and with the merging of the 2 companies has come full circle once again to be part of the new Grass Valley organization.
