Video: Designing and Utilising SMPTE 2110 for Broadcast: Opportunities and Challenges

A meeting of experienced minds here at the Pittsburgh SMPTE section talking about the opportunities and challenges of ST-2110. Phil Myers from Lawo talks optimistically about the challenges that can and often have been solved in implementing 2110 whether that be network infrastructure or timing, giving a good primer on the whole topic as he starts the session.

Hugo Gaggioni from Sony, talks about NMOS, explaining what AMWA does and the difference between their IS-04,05 and 06 specifications.

Karl Kuhn from Tektronix then discusses packet pacing, PTP and network architectures. He then looks at how to monitor PTP and see it is working well.

With the panel session at the end, joined by Dan Turk from NEP, there is a free-ranging discussion covering some of the following topics:

  • Control of IP networks
  • The limits of IP
  • Multicast traffic
  • Network Architecture
  • True non-blocking switches
  • Break-even points of IP systems
  • Split essences & dropping blanking
  • Network planning for UHD
  • Handling loss of network on PTP implementations
    plus much more!

Webinar: Control and Monitoring in an IP Infrastructure

Date: Monday 19th November 2018, 08:00 GMT and again at 16:00 GMT

Axon’s back with their 5th webinar in the Broadcast IP 101 series. Previously they have covered preparing for IP, the basics, Transport Formats and uncompressed vs compressed video. Now they are back to talk about control and monitoring.

The well-known 2022 and 2110 standards define transportation of video (and other essences). Like SDI-related standards, they don’t describe how to control the path of signals or monitor them. Unlike SDI, however, we expect to know what’s plugged in to our networks (AKA discovery) and then to control the data flow. There are proprietary and open specifications for doing this, including AMWA IS-04, IS-05 and IS-06 which deal with discovery, control and connection management.

In this webinar, CTO Peter Schut describes the lay of the land and how you can implement control and monitoring in an IP infrastructure.

The webinar happens twice. Once at 08:00 GMT (Midnight PT) and once at 16:00 GMT (11am ET).

Meeting: Further adventures in the world of IP: SMPTE2110 and NMOS


Learn what the SMPTE 2110 standards are and how they affect the future of professional media over IP networks with our speakers David Atkins and Ed Calverley. Now at a bigger venue, David and Ed will highlight areas that need further work and possible approaches that could taken to further advance progress. As a pioneer in IP-based production, Suitcase TV will share its ongoing experiences, both good and bad, of using IP with broadcast signals and look at why it is worth the pain.

  • What has changed in the past 12 months?
  • What new opportunities can we as an industry take from the standards?
  • What new developments are now possible?

Ample time will be available for discussion so bring your experiences, questions and answers.

Date: 13th March 2018, 18:00 for ample refreshments 18:30 start. 20:45 close.
