Mr Ang Lee heralds a new era of HFR movies Inside By David Wood Oscar-winning director Mr Ang Lee said that his experience of shooting at high frame rates on his latest feature Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk has convinced him that the industry is on the brink of a new era in filmmaking. The director said that he found the experience of shooting his latest film at 120fps in 3D and 4K an “exciting, intimidating and humbling” experience, but pledged that he would continue to make movies at higher frame rates and urged other filmmakers to join him. Delegates at a packed Big Screen Keynote on Monday were treated to an extraordinary and pulsating excerpt from the movie about a 19-year-old US soldier’s return from the Iraq war, which was displayed at 120fps 3D 4K resolution using Christie Mirage laser projectors and Dolby Atmos.

Ang Lee said: “We are about to bounce into the next era of filmmaking, but it would require filmmakers to get to grips with a series of new aesthetic and technological challenges. “I am very excited because there is a new cinematic language to be explored and the rules of the game have changed. Everything is so clear; you see everything which is intimidating and scary [as a director]. “It meant that I couldn’t use make up [on Billy Lynn]. In fact, a lot of the things that we have done for filmmakers for 100 years no longer apply.” One of the big benefits of the hyper-realistic 120fps image is that it reduces motion blur. “But there is little depth of field, so you have work out how you are going to pull focus, how you are going to light scenes and how you direct actors. For every answer I came up with I found ten new questions.” The Life of Pi director said the format can give audiences

a very intimate, emotional experience but there is nowhere to hide for actors, with performances needing to be more subtle and realistic. “It’s like experiencing everything in the first person. As an audience it allows you to feel how they [the actors] feel. Actors really have to go through it and as a director you have to try harder to make it feel real.” Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk will be released in the US in November but will be shown at 60fps as no cinemas are currently

IBC delivers on expectations once again: With a day to go, attendance numbers at IBC2016 look set to beat last year’s record, with 54,284 people having come through the doors as of 17:00 on Monday evening. “IBC is by the industry for the industry, and on behalf of the whole team I’d like to thank our visitors, exhibitors and contributors for making this a great show,” said Michael Crimp, CEO, IBC. “I look forward to welcoming everyone back to Amsterdam, 14 to 19 September 2017.”

equipped to project at 120. Another repercussion of new high-resolution formats is that it impacts the post production pipeline with Billy Lynn shooting 7.5TB of footage a day. Editing is a challenge because the footage could only be displayed at 60fps on set and in post. Editor Tim Squyres, who took part in a technical debrief following Ang Lee’s keynote, said that they tried to get as close to the format as possible in post but had to imagine what the images would look like at the full frame rate. For the future, Ang Lee said that he would like to use smaller cameras with bigger and better sensors because at 120fps you lose three f-stops. “Bigger and better sensors usually means a bigger camera, but I want a smaller camera. I’ll leave it to the manufacturers to figure that out!”

IBC’s Wrap Up: “All change for everything” By Chris Forrester IBC’s popular ‘Wrap Up’ panel attempted to put into context 15 halls of equipments and demos, a few hundred hours of conference sessions and more than a few one-on-one meetings that most panelists had undertaken. They all admitted it was a tough call. ITV’s Tom Griffiths (director of broadcast and distribution) was enthusiastic about the shift to an all-IP world. “It will benefit us all, and I hope will lead to us finding new ways to work, and fresh

business opportunities as a result. However, in the past the technology tended to set the limits of what could be done. The power might now shift to the creative team, and those extra business inputs. Can IP save me money, as well as deliver more income? Microsoft’s Tony Emerson (worldwide MD/media and cable) said there would also be a need to understand, and to trust, the new technology. The panel said one strong theme that emerged from IBC was – rightly – the consumer. The

DTG’s Richard Lindsay-Davies argued that while standards are inevitably important, the industry needed to work with multiple standards, not least in the cellular world, computing and the new kids of VR and AR. He also praised TiVo’s new all-embracing remote control. One panelist reminded delegates that not so very long ago people would comment about ‘300 channels and nothing to watch’. “Now they say ‘a million pieces of content out there but how do I find what I want’.” The panel did not ignore 4K/

UHD, nor high dynamic range developments. The EBU’s Simon Fell said most of his public service broadcasters were now testing UHD and in some cases broadcasting trials of 4K material. ITV’s Griffiths said some of the broadcaster’s high-end drama footage was now being captured in UHD. But Fell as stressed that ‘live’ output was still a guaranteed

ratings winner with audiences, and would stay as such for the foreseeable future. Meanwhile, all the panelists were stressing that the industry was in a period of considerable change, and that those changes, in IP, UHD, and even the influence of the likes of Netflix, Google, Apple and Amazon, would still be in discussion a year from now.

RDK community gets new member Agama Technologies By Ian McMurray Agama Technologies has announced that it has joined the Reference Design Kit (RDK) community as a licensee.

The HbbTV Association has swelled its powers with the launch of HbbTV 2.0 and its merger with the Smart TV Alliance. Organisation chair and MD of IRT Klaus IllgnerFehns also raised the issue of the management layer required to make IP production work. “We need a management layer. The network, its capabilities, the bandwidth, the SLA and the QS are crucial, “ he said. “We talk about remote and file production and IP studio, but without a reliable and high quality network nothing in those approaches works.

EVS

At IBC2016 EVS is powering the whole IBC TV infrastructure, and the channel is also notably integrating infrastructure from the VRT-EBU LiveIP studio project. IBC TV’s technical operations ingest content from multiple sources. In the IBC TV Studio and on its green screen virtual studio, multicam feeds are being ingested directly into EVS servers. Remote crews interviewing exhibitors and visitors around the show are shooting content and then utilising the EVS Ingest Funnel for importing files in multiple formats. This content flows directly to the system’s XStore Production nearline storage and automated workflow orchestration systems for use by the production teams. The technical set-up of the LiveIP studio at the show is split across

Nitin Pai shares his list of business enabling technologies with IBC delegates

on several live chat and music shows. “What’s surprising is that Ozo still appears to be the only single VR solution currently on the market,” said Pai. Other hot products include BBC R&D’s object-based broadcasting solution in IBC’s Future Zone (8.F20). Demonstrated as a cookalong kitchen experience, the technology allows the broadcast

to happen at the same pace as the viewer cooking. “I can see this application working well in premium TV and product placement in the areas of infotainment and edutainment,” Pai noted. For sports sponsors wanting real-time feedback on their ROI, small start-up VBrand is offering a potentially big solution in Hall 3 (B56).

IBC TV: IP in the real world By Mark Hallinger

What Caught My Eye: Future business opportunities A live, multi-camera VR system, an object-based broadcasting solution and a real-time measurement system for sports sponsors were among the things that caught Nitin Pai’s eye in Monday morning’s session on technology enabling new business opportunities. The SVP of marketing and strategy for Tata Elxsi pointed delegates to the Nokia Ozo VR camera in 8.C25 which utilises existing kit to produce a multicamera VR broadcast.

What about v2.0? “For the end user it creates a tighter link between broadband and broadcast, from your smartphone onto the TV screen. You can kick off applications from the TV on the secondary screen,” said Illgner-Fehns. “We support synchronised streaming, so you can sync a stream delivered over broadband to a broadcast stream.” The key professional aspects are support for HGML 5, which

The full UHDTV spec chips along OUTLINED

DVB By George Jarrett Its demos are about terrestrial content to mobiles, but the earnest concentration within the DVB camp continues to focus on the travails of UHD Phase 2. “Continuing to be the most relevant is HDR. HFR, wider colour space, and next generation audio, and that is what all our standardisation activities are concentrating on right now,” said DVB executive director Peter Seibert. “This

means Phases 2A and 2B together, but we assume 2B, which is higher frame rates (HFR) will be implemented much later because we need the chip sets that are able to work with the demands of HFR, and we can only guess they will be available within the next two years. The spec for HFR will however be written now, and there is good news about the audio element. “There is consensus in the group and I am very optimistic that we will have the technical spec in time for our November steering

Conversion course in fibre connectors FieldCast/ Rosenberger - OSI By David Fox The new Fibre FieldCast Connector Three is a series of small, bidirectional converter boxes, initially offering fibre to SDI, Ethernet, DVI, or HDMI, that will grow to encompass more formats, including versions mixing SDI and Ethernet outputs. The units have “very robust power and fibre connectors” and offer 12v DC output to attached equipment, explained Ab Vingerling, FieldCast’s co-founder and development manager. They are also simple to secure to tripods, frames or overhead structures. “This is the first certified converter for hanging in the [lighting] trusses, because you can put safety wires through it. It is also easily stackable and can be hung off a clamp.” Also new is the FieldCast Mux

One and Demux One pair of four-channel SDI-over-fibre units. The 1RU units cost €2990 for the pair, and will be joined by eight-channel and 16-channel models early next year. 12.E51

EOS 5D Mark 4K OUTLINED

Canon Europe By David Fox The new EOS 5D Mark IV is a significant upgrade for the camera line that popularised shooting video on a DSLR; it now offers internal 4K (4096x2160) recording at up to 30fps in 8-bit, 4:2:2 Motion JPEG at up to 500Mbps. It can also do HD 50/60p at up to 180Mbps (i-frame) and 1080p HDR movies. The camera offers improved auto focus for video, and has built-in WiFi and GPS. However, it lacks some video features (peaking, C-Log, 4K HDMI output and Ultra HD recording). It uses a Super 35-size crop for 4K, so it should match other digital cinema cameras quite nicely, but anyone wanting it for shallowest full-frame depth of field may be disappointed. As a stills camera it also gets lots of improvements, including

a Dual Pixel Raw file format, allowing greater post production adjustments, such as (slightly) changing the focus point, shifting foreground bokeh or reducing image ghosting. Canon also has two new highperformance L-series lenses: the EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM, with improved four-stop image stabilisation and quieter focusing during video; and the EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III USM with advanced autofocus and nineblade circular aperture. 12.D60

SAT>IP live broadcast over in-home IP networks OUTLINED

Thomas Wrede, VP Reception Systems, SES Astra TV is still the predominant device to consume broadcast content in the home, however new devices such as tablets and smartphones are gaining in popularity for live TV. To address this trend, DVB will have to offer a technical solution to also reach these devices. SAT>IP is an ideal complement to the DVB suite of broadcast standards (DVB-T2, DVB-C2, DVB-S2 and DVBS2X) and facilitates the delivery of live broadcast (based on transport stream technology) onto IP networks in a very cost efficient manner, long before the broadcast industry has moved to native IP transmissions. DVB is in discussion with the SAT>IP Alliance to provide future extensions of the SAT>IP specification. It is assumed that such co-operation can be approved the autumn. This co-operation will also include common marketing activities for Sat>IP. A first step in this direction is being demonstrated at IBC on the DVB booth (1.D81) where the technology is being used to deliver satellite and terrestrial content to handheld devices. The SAT>IP Alliance was recently formed by DVB members Eutelsat, Hispasat, Nagra, MaxLinear, Panasonic and SES. The Alliance is a nonprofit organisation open to other manufacturers, with the aim of co-ordinating and marketing SAT>IP technology worldwide. Roughly 10 years ago satellite operator SES initiated discussions both internally and with industry partners about a Network Connected Tuner (NCT) which would output broadcasted video, audio and data streams directly onto an IP (in-home) network. The ultimate product design goal quickly turned into the concept of an IP-LNB, a Low-Noise Ku band block converter which would output live broadcast in

12 IBC D5 2016 v2JRJMcK.indd 1

IP format. However, at that time the semiconductor industry was not yet in a position to provide cost efficient integrated high bandwidth A/D converters and product development efforts had to be put on hold. In early 2010 R&D experts from Sky UK, Craftwork and SES joined forces to develop a protocol specification for taking live satellite broadcast onto IP networks and this initiative resulted in the creation of the SAT>IP communications protocol. With SAT>IP, satellite-delivered DVB-S/S2 RF signals are demodulated and converted towards IP right at the point of reception in a SAT>IP server. Such a conversion may happen already in the satellite antenna itself (IP-LNB), close to the antenna (SAT>IP Multiswitch or converter) or in a master STB. Effectively SAT>IP servers remove the DVB-S/S2 layer and replace it with an IP transport layer. The same principle can also be applied to DVB-T/T2, DVB-C/C2 and DVB-S2X signals. The SAT>IP communications protocol was eventually extended to cover all DVB broadcast platforms including IPTV delivery. SAT>IP represents a typical server and client model where the server strips off the DVB layer and puts the video, audio and data (SI, EMMs, ECMs, …) into IP format. It is based on existing IP standards such as UPnP for addressing and device discovery and RTSP/RTP for session control and streaming [Fig. 1]. SAT>IP is fully transparent to free-to-air and encrypted broadcast signals where traditionally the decryption takes place in the client device. Given the fact that traditional broadcast CA solutions cannot be decrypted in software and thus have difficulties being used on modern IP devices such as tablets and smartphones,

it becomes necessary for operators to implement a CA to DRM conversion after reception of their signals by SAT>IP servers [Fig. 2]. The first commercial implementation of such CA to DRM transcription is well

on its way at the operator of the HD+ platform in Germany and will enable subscribers to watch encrypted programmes on their portable devices in the home. The consumer benefit of SAT>IP is that this technology allows the watching of live TV on all kinds of IP devices connected to a home network. It also facilitates the “Future of TV is apps” vision which means that popular consumer devices do not need to have tuners anymore as these will reside in a server unit connected to the in-home IP network. With SAT>IP no coax cable is required to view satellite, cable or terrestrial broadcast television on a second screen. CE manufacturer Panasonic has already integrated this technology in many of its flat screen TVs where the highend models also incorporate a SAT>IP server. SAT>IP was standardised by CENELEC in 2014 and is now supported by over 45 manufacturers who have launched close to 80

different SAT>IP server and client products. Leading chip manufacturers have now launched full-band capture chips that can receive the entire satellite IF spectrum allowing a single-receiver design to offer multichannel service with channels anywhere in the spectrum as well as advanced features like fast channel change. Such chips provide up to 16 tuners on one SoC (System on Chip). A recent development of a waveguide based Ku-band flat panel antenna with an integrated 32 channel SAT>IP server demonstrates what is technically possible today. For the camping market this flat panel antenna is available as a fully steerable (auto-pointing) version with an 8-channel SAT>IP server and 802.11ac WiFi capability. The latest generation servers comprise up to 32 simultaneous front-ends and can serve the same number of client devices with individual programme streams. Of course these SAT>IP servers can process SD, HD and also Ultra HD programmes.

Thomas Wrede is vice president, Reception Systems at satellite operator SES in Betzdorf, Luxembourg, where he and his team are responsible for developing and implementing satellite reception products and solutions. Wrede joined SES in 1992 as a senior systems engineer. He has been deeply involved in the development of digital satellite television, in-home signal distribution concepts, digital satellite radio, satellite return channel technology, internet via satellite and High Definition Television. He is managing SES’ SAT>IP project (www. satip.info) and has taken responsibility for the technical aspects of the introduction of Ultra HD television services via satellite. Wrede represents SES in the DVB Commercial Module (www.dvb.org) as chair of the CM-S subgroup. He also leads a Technologyand Innovation Forum at the German Association of Commercial Broadcasters and Audiovisual Services (www.vprt.de).

Stitching VR with chips OUTLINED

Argon Design By Adrian Pennington Stitching video from multiple cameras or sensors to create a 360-degree panoramic movie on-the-fly is one of the main bottlenecks of virtual reality and 360-media production. A demonstration of Argon360 in the IBC Future Zone could be the answer. Its hardware-based approach means that stitching happens on a chip in the camera. Users can view a panorama in real

time, or upload it direct to YouTube, Facebook or other 360-video serving websites. Argon360 operates at very low latency between the incoming video from the sensors and the outgoing stitched video. It uses ‘multiband blending techniques’ to avoid ‘visual discontinuities’ while still preserving detail across a stitch line. Depth dependent parallax correction, which is under development, will mitigate artefacts that can occur when objects near the camera span a

Wouldn’t it be great to produce highquality immersive 360-degree video on a compact battery powered mobile platform? With Argon360 you can.” 8.G14 ArtioPortal, the latest version of the AvediaServer middleware platform, extends the ability to create a tailored viewing interface for TV, video on demand and interactive services across a broader range of devices, including smart TVs and tablets. 14.H13

theibcdaily OPINION OUTLINED

The future is happening now IP is heading towards becoming the dominant force in terms of protocol, says Ronen Artman, VP of marketing, LiveU The industry reached a tipping point at NAB 2016 and as a consequence there was a fresh sense of urgency and excitement. Doubtless in some corners there was considerable concern too. That tipping point was of course the deployment of IP on the production and playout side. This has been discussed for many years, and indeed there have been isolated rollouts of it around the world as well as it being used/ tested on special projects. It was deployed by Sky News in a specially built studio for its world record-breaking coverage of the UK general election last year, for which they partnered with us. But at NAB it was very clear that it’s now the prime development underpinning our industry: a paradigm shift is happening. Yes, there’s

standards work still ongoing and there are going to be challenging hybrid times ahead but as an industry, IP is now heading towards becoming the dominant force in terms of protocol. There are two other main factors that are framing our industry, one being 4K and HDR, the other being the opening up of live video distribution by Facebook and Twitter. If you take all these factors together – IP, 4K and live – then you can see, given our IP-based, live content-delivering history and now our embracing of 4K, why we’re excited about the future. What do we mean, more specifically? IBC2015 saw us announce LiveU Solo and since then it has been launched in the US. This is a ‘plug and play’ live streaming bonding

solution aimed at the online media market. Designed to fit seamlessly with web streaming workflows, LiveU Solo connects automatically to popular OVPs and content delivery networks, such as Facebook, YouTube Live and Wowza Streaming Cloud. We have used our expertise to create the easiest way to integrate with the Facebook Live workflow and we can all see the popularity of that platform already. Solo can be managed and controlled remotely via a web interface or smartphone. It has already been deployed by Team Pacquiao, the team behind long-time boxing champ Manny Pacquiao, who partnered with Global Sports Streaming to bring his dedicated fans a frontrow look at his training camp regimen and pre-fight activities through a series of livestreams

to Pacquiao’s YouTube Channel. Huffington Post, a leading global source of breaking news, opinion, entertainment and community, and an early adopter of LiveU Solo, is using it to deliver highquality live video to a wider audience on Facebook. With the opening of the Facebook Live API, brands can now live stream video content directly to Facebook using high-quality production equipment. This has been extremely important to broadcasters and video content creators that want to deliver non-stop live video coverage to the Facebook community.

Then there’s our nextgeneration LU710 4K/p60 rack-mountable 1U encoder. Combined with the Xtender transmission device (LiveU’s external antenna with six modems, delivering video rates of up to 40Mbps) and LiveU’s enhanced server with 4K output, the LU710 encoder transforms any SNG truck into a fully mobile hybrid cellular/ satellite solution for transmitting 4K/HD video with improved efficiency. Of course, you can see all this on our stand along with a major product announcement. 3.B62

HbbTV 2.0 and its importance for broadcasters OUTLINED

Peter McAvock, EBU We all know what ‘OTT’ is. Well, ‘over the top’ of what exactly? It’s over the top of linear broadcasting. Let’s consider that for a second: the basis for OTT services is a core linear broadcast proposition. I know that the so-called OTT operators have left this out, but this original idea was the motivation behind HbbTV. The proposition is simple. The quality of linear broadcast combined with the convenience of the internet. What drove the original development work and what remains the cornerstone application is ‘catch-up TV’: watching the shows you like even if you’ve missed them (within a reasonable time window). To make any hybrid TV system work, you need a quality internet connection to ensure a tolerable picture quality on a large flat panel display, and you need the TV set connected, of course. As an aside, we’ve found that hybrid TV is a good way of encouraging viewers to connect their TV sets. HbbTV is much more of course: as an industry professional who was around at the start of HbbTV, it was the first time in quite a while that I saw the public service media organisations from big European markets, and the big-name consumer electronics vendors all talking around the same standardisation table with a common problem to solve. The rest is history, according to a recent European

Broadcasting Union (EBU) survey: HbbTV is now launched in at least 20 countries around Europe. It is entering its second generation and boasts an innovative approach to interoperability. We’ll get to all of these in turn. But what are the key drivers for the industry to consider HbbTV over, say, proprietary solutions from vendors or the blue-chip internet companies. For one, product-marketing specialists didn’t invent the name HbbTV. Maybe that’s why some broadcasters and network operators still don’t get it. HbbTV is available in pretty much every connected TV set in Europe; an HbbTV service is essentially a web service. What could be easier? But the cool bit is that the broadcaster controls the user experience, not like those other proprietary solutions. Sounds blindingly obvious. On top of that, you can now do targeted advertising, in app purchases and other interesting commercial stuff. Of course, it’s not as simple as that in real life. Because HbbTV is an open standard, there’s no vendor lock-in, so you need to make sure your HbbTV service works across different TV sets. This requires pre-launch co-ordination in the different markets. Then there’s raising awareness of the service to the consumer; selling it if you like. This is where the real cooperation needs to come in: it should be simple to switch the

data service on in the TV set, and of course, those proposing applications need to make sure that these don’t crash the TV sets. These issues are well known, and it’s inconvenient addressing these issues up front, but if you get it right, the rewards are there. As HbbTV 2.0 comes to market (the first announcements to be made at IFA ’16 2-7 September 2016), the two main drivers will be the migration from MHEG-5 to HbbTV in the UK, and from MHP to HbbTV in Italy. These two mature markets will showcase some of the new features available in HbbTV such as application synchronisation, access services support, and more elaborate web-based technologies like more advanced support of HTML5. Back to interoperability: how does HbbTV address the need to ensure that there’s compatibility between services and devices? Ensuring that

Colour tuneable super soft lights F&V Europe By David Fox Two new soft panel LED lights have been introduced by F&V. The 90W UltraColor Z400S Soft and the 180W Z800S Soft are rated with a TLCI of 97-99

18 IBC D5 2016 v2JRJMcK.indd 1

(depending on the colour), but the Z400S can output 1841 lux at 1m, with a beam angle of 130-degrees, or up to 4400 lux at 1m (5600K) using the optional KS-1 intensifier, with a beam angle of 50-degrees. This extra brightness gives room for further softness – achieved

via two optional diffusion stages within the softbox. The panels can also be turned into an omni-directional space light, with an add-on that folds down into a small bag. The bi-colour (3200K-5600K) lights are passively cooled to eliminate noise and are claimed

applications work reliably and predictably across different vendor’s equipment is a must for a technology that operates in the zero tolerance area of linear TV. HbbTV’s approach is to link the availability of test materials (for testing implementations) with that of the specification. The proposition to HbbTV Members is clear: if you feel strongly about a feature, then you had better commit to providing the test assertions that drive the test suite. Otherwise, the feature doesn’t appear in the HbbTV specification. This innovative approach means that the test suites that implementers rely on to test their HbbTV stacks come out quicker, thereby allowing their products to come to market at a faster pace. So what’s next for HbbTV? With some 80 member companies, the Association is in a healthy state. The EBU along with the other broadcasters probably needs to promote

to show no brightness loss at either daylight or tungsten compared to the mixed colour temperatures. They are flicker free up to 15,000fps. Both include a built-in V-mount battery plate (Gold Mount optional) only 8cm deep. 12.F51

HbbTV better among its members. The work we have done to ensure that there’s a good quality open standard in this space needs to be brought to the attention of those who make the investment decisions in their companies. Nobody is saying that HbbTV should be the core proposition for broadcaster online services, but its unique offering beside other OTT propositions is compelling for any broadcaster with an eye on the future. And as internet connections improve, the blending of linear broadcast and online services will only increase; no other technology out there affords the same level of integration. And the broadcasters are in charge. This is a strong result (in my opinion, at least). For more information, see our latest tech-i magazine, ‘What’s all the fuss about HbbTV?’: tech.ebu.ch/publications/ ebu-tech-i-28

theibcdaily OPINION OUTLINED

Managing ‘cross platform’ workflows Storing and finding media is one issue, ensuring it is in a format ready for editing is quite another, says Chris Steele, managing director, Marquis Broadcast Media needs to be found, edited and delivered and each stage of the process presents its own issues. Ideally, editors need to be able to search, browse, select and bring media into edit, without copying, transcoding or re-wrapping. However, at the moment, not every edit system is able to handle every flavour of media. This situation is getting worse as new capture formats frequently appear. Broadcasters appreciate these challenges and many are moving towards one type of storage, format and set of management tools. Yet, creating a mammoth single media storage and MAM presents its own issues as by its nature it is a fragile single point of failure. The bigger the media store, the more critical is the metadata search capability; there is no point having several

petabytes of media online if you can’t find what you need. The global nature of broadcasting today compounds this problem. Washington may want to edit something that has been created in Singapore. It might be stored on Avid but needs to be edited in Adobe Premiere Pro. With multi-storage locations and platforms, how can media be stored without unnecessary duplication? Storing and finding media is one issue, ensuring it is in a format ready for editing is another. Delivery can also present the same cross-manufacturer integration issues, but in reverse. There will be a set of requirements for the delivered media and metadata. For example, delivery to a news system may need to be to a pre-created placeholder. Metadata needs to be sent

to the MAM but metadata schemes are unique to each facility, making multi-location workflows complex. Comprehensive solutions are only going to become available if manufacturers of the various systems and tools support all available media formats, and can exchange and preserve metadata and rich sequence information. For example: a sophisticated federated search – the ability to search across multiple storage platforms and MAMs – would not only allow you to find media in Singapore, but could let you know if someone else locally has recently moved it closer to you or into the format you require. Such comprehensive solutions will require unprecedented collaboration between manufacturers, driven by considerable customer pressure. They will also have

The new MPR50-IEM true diversity IEM receiver has been released. This addition to Wisycom’s range of products was designed for professional in-ear monitoring applications and is based on Wisycom’s established MPR30-IEM. One new feature is the ENS compander, that caters to live and music shows/broadcasts by significantly increasing the quality of audio transmission during the transfer of complex data, claimed the company. Vocal transmission, the main purpose of the previous system, is also refined. The MPR50-IEM possesses ‘impressive’ channel switching capabilities, claimed Wisycom, giving the user

freedom to switch from IEM to IFB mode with one click on the menu. This new IEM also protects the ears from an accidental volume increase by allowing the user to set a maximum volume with its quick lock volume control. Matching the previous receiver, the MPR50-IEM features a true diversity configuration with two whip antennas, along with Wisycom’s signature wideband tuning range up to 232MHz and an audio peak-dynamic of 200mW. 8.D78

New SynView Multiviewer launched

OUTLINED

Stan Leridon Chairman & co-founder, Dotscreen Has IBC come at a good time for the electronic media industry? Why? The electronic media industry has been experiencing its own digital revolution as have many other industries. OTT is gaining momentum and IBC has come at a good time for all industry players to identify and select their preferred vendors for building a robust end-to-end OTT solution.

What do you think are the key developments in, or threats to, your market sector at the current time? Every revolution comprises both

opportunities and threats. The OTT market is very competitive and not mature at the same time. Every vendor shall remain focused to its core business and look for partners that would leverage its proposition. This is why we have built off-the-shelf, white label, front-end apps and websites that are distributed by selected back-end suppliers.

Why should delegates visit your stand at IBC? We will demo our brand new multiscreen video apps available on an opex model (i.e under a licence covering maitenance, OS updates, new features, etc). We will also showcase

To ensure high video quality, the new DP1.2-VisionXG system transmits video signals transparently – meaning pixelby-pixel and without any compression. The system can be monitored via network interfaces either actively via web interface or passively via SNMP. This, says the company, enables technicians to detect and react to critical conditions before they affect a user’s work; something that is especially important in live production. According to G&D, the DP1.2VisionXG delivers the same high degree of reliability as all the company’s other products and includes several safety features. 1.B10 enable service providers to drive viewers’ engagement and create data-driven monetisation opportunities from immersive video experiences while preserving privacy. Also on show is the new VO Dongle, described as a powerful streaming device offering a breakthrough TV experience to consumers in any location for a seamless, connected and secure television experience. The VO Dongle also allows operators to have full control over the content delivered from the Dongle to the viewing screen. 1.A51

Launched at IBC is the SynView modular multiviewer, capable of handling 4K and multiple IP video formats. Axon claimed it developed the product to ensure that SynView can support whatever video transport mechanism the industry chooses to adopt. Designed for use as a standalone unit or as part of an Axon Synapse signal processing system, SynView is aimed at a wide range of applications and from small to extremely large monitoring walls. Claimed to be the only single field latency (20ms@50Hz and 16.7ms@59.94Hz) multiview system on the market, its modular nature means that it can be combined with over 300 different processing modules to provide a system that is said to truly stand out from the competition.

Bending the perspective of single ﬁeld latency multiview systems

The new SynView consists of two basic models, each available in two versions (SDI I/O or Ethernet I/O). These versions can be mixed and matched to build a hybrid multiviewer with up to hundreds of inputs and eight 1080p heads (on SDI) or two heads with UHD/4K resolution. Multiple connector panels will be available to allow for different I/O configurations. Compared to earlier systems, SynView’s feature set has been significantly enhanced, said the company, with double the amount of inputs, eight times the amount of outputs (heads), UHD/4K/60Hz output resolution on display outputs and a 6-fold increase of processing power. The system can now scale, position, de-embed, overlay and process eight video channels. 10.A21

180W and 360W versions of Photon Beard’s new Highlight LED

Photon Beard

Meet us at IBC Stand #10.D29

By David Fox The new Highlight LED lighting range from Photon Beard uses remote phosphor technology that promises CRI and Television Lighting Consistency Index ratings in the high 90s for both 3200K and 5600K colour temperature variants. “The Highlight LED range delivers the genuine powersaving advantages of LED to lighting rigs but with no compromise on light quality,” claimed Photon Beard’s MD, Peter Daffarn. “By directing more of the light to where it’s needed, very much like a fluorescent fixture, the Highlight LED retains the appropriate level of softness while maximising efficiency.” The Highlight LEDs are available in 90W, 180W, 270W and 360W variants, which relate directly to 2-, 4-, 6-, and 8-tube fluorescents, “but deliver far more punch and none of the unnatural spinning tones that typical LED fixtures tend to produce”. They use no moving parts and are passively cooled, which should improve reliability, which is why each fixture has a full five-year warranty for both quantity and quality of light. Also, thanks to the fixture’s modular design, all models can be supported with a minimum number of spare light modules for easy replacement on location, while the tungsten and daylight semi-tubular polycarbonate phosphor panels take about 30 seconds to switch (other colour temperature versions are also promised). 12.G38

theibcdaily OPINION OUTLINED

Solving MXF interoperability issues Jörg Houpert, head of technology, Cube-Tec International, explains what next level auto QC and media correction means The move to file-based workflows has dramatically increased efficiency in media production chains. Material eXchange Format (MXF) is the predominant exchange format of professionals. MXF is highly flexible and covers a huge variety of supported essence formats. This flexibility has spawned a massive rise of interoperability issues and this situation has not changed significantly within the last five years. Classical QC products can help MXF experts to detect the root cause of interoperability reasons. But this does not make damaged files work. MXF experts are a rare resource in nearly all operations, so minimising their workload frees-up the experts for innovative work instead of hands-on MXF troubleshooting. I have a question: is this a familiar scenario in your

company? Every MXF file will be sent through a transcoder farm, before being transferred to the playout server, just to make sure it will not crash live on air. This happens because it is assumed that, during this procedure, erroneous files will be rejected or corrected by the transcoder – and no errors will occur during playout. How wonderful that would be! But this is what really happens when you insert a transcoding step in the production chain: incoming files will be unpacked out of their MXF container, de-multiplexed, decoded, re-encoded again, newly multiplexed and played out with a new MXF container. Adding this procedure to the workflow can in fact add unexpected problems, such as decoding errors that are added to the file. It becomes exceptionally

nasty if macroblock errors are ‘burned’ into the picture sequence. With automated QC systems, those burnt-in errors are far harder to detect than the original error in the codec bit-stream. Other errors like missing subtitles, wrong audio channel alignment, illegal video levels, picture sequences with socalled ‘video freeze’, hard-todetect re-encoding artefacts can also be newly created. The only thing you can be sure about is the loss of picture quality, as transcoding is a lossy procedure. It usually requires a manual full visual verification. If you want quality control without transcoding, a specialised QC and correction process is the only way of getting that task done properly. MXF Legalizer is a product designed especially to solve MXF interoperability issues on the fly when interposed in the

media production chain. This truly innovative approach has already proven its outstanding correction results. On top of this, MXF Legalizer is available with optional modules for loudness correction. MXF Legalizer is the first QC system to receive the certificate from the Institut für Rundfunktechnik (IRT) for the delivery of standard compliant MXF

files according to the ARD/ ZDF/ORF/SRG HDF-Profiles. MXF Legalizer is already well established with the German broadcasters and is beginning to be noticed by other European TV stations, initial adopters are already using it. Come and see the MXF Legalizer in action and talk to us. 5.C41

USB-3 input for HD-SDI unveiled Next-gen UHF broadcast antennas DekTec By Will Strauss A portable USB-3 device that optimises the transfer of HDSDI signals to laptops, tablets and PCs is a key component of DekTec’s offering at IBC. The bus-powered DTU-351 requires no power supply and enables access to 16 audio channels and other HANC and VANC packets. When used in combination with DekTec’s SdEye Software, the DTU-351 becomes a portable SDI analysis tool, offering standard Y, Cb, Cr, R, G, B waveform and vectorscope displays plus analysis of SD, HD and 3G SDI signals.

26 IBC D5 2016 v2JRJMcK.indd 1

The DTU-351 also features an audio analysis feature set that includes peak meter, loudness meter, surround meter, and detailed decoding of audio channel status and control packets. It can also decode SMPTE 2020-1-2008 Dolby metadata packets. DekTec suggests that the unit can be used for various things including HD-SDI waveform analysis, HD-SDI recording and as an HD-SDI input for uncompressed video. Also being showcased is the DTA-2165, an IP video card

Kathrein By Mark Hallinger

The DTU-351 provides an HD-SDI input via USB-3 to PCs and tablets

that supports the delivery of uncompressed video over IP at high-speed 10GbE rates in accordance with SMPTE and VSF standards. A video-centric 10GbE adapter, 12 SDI/ASI and 12G BNC interfaces for OEM 4K/ UHD applications and an H.264 encoder are also on show. 2.B40

The new ‘Cavity Slot Antenna’ series combines easy connection options with high broadband flexibility, according to Kathrein. The Cavity Slot Antenna family includes different types for low, medium and high transmitting powers and features low reflection characteristics. Its design aims to provide low weight and low wind load. This allows for easy installation at the transmitter stations. Wolfgang Niedhammer, director, sales and marketing,

broadcast antennas, Kathrein, said: “Broadcast providers will get an efficient and economical broadband antenna solution for transmitting digital TV channels in the entire UHF range from 470 to 790MHz.” The antenna is horizontally polarised and, due to its cardioid horizontal diagram, ideal for directional radiation into a coverage area, said the company. The integrated null fill prevents coverage gaps in the immediate vicinity of the transmitting site. Several antennas can be mounted on top of each other to achieve an even higher antenna gain. 8.C29

Trends: New visualisation options for multiplatform TV monitoring address the changing market

Qligent By Mark Hallinger A series of new visualisation tools for Qligent’s Vision cloud monitoring platform has been released. The company said the tools strengthen regulatory compliance, bandwidth optimisation and workflow management for broadcasters and MVPDs. First introduced in 2014, Vision has now been deployed with broadcasters and MVPDs globally, and

several thousand networked monitoring probes have now been deployed across six continents. Ted Korte, COO, Qligent, said: “Our new visualisation features for Vision are based on customer requests and industry trends we see taking shape as more broadcasters transition to cloud services.” Korte said Vision’s fully customisable dashboard was essential to monitoring success whether deploying Vision as a SaaS or via Qligent’s Oversight 24/7

managed service. New visualisation features include a regulatory tool that monitors and records how long a station has been off-air or out of compliance. It also features bitrate monitoring and multi-dimensional dashboards for systems with thousands of monitoring points. Also included is impact analysis, a quick 1-2-3 step process that determines the overall impact a problem has on the broadcaster’s viewership. 8.E47

Flexibility is a Plus Browser performance for 800W Fresnel optimised, improved OUTLINED

K5600 Europe By David Fox The Alpha 800 Plus from K5600 is claimed to be the first 800W Fresnel on the market. It uses a 175mm Fresnel lens (more commonly found on 1200W Fresnels), and like the larger Alphas, it should offer highquality light and shadow. It is compact and lightweight, with interchangeable lenses, giving users more options than just flood and spot (the beam angle can range from 6º to 110° depending on its configuration). The ‘Plus’ in the name means it can be equipped with a PAR reflector, thanks to a newly developed K5600 G22 90° socket that allows users to move the lamp from a vertical position to horizontal. Users can quickly replace the bulb

using the 90° angle socket and slide in the PAR beamer, ready to receive the lenses or a Softube. The Alpha Plus also has a new braking system and a yoke offering four different positions: vertical, horizontal and at 45° front and back. The 800W Plus can be fitted with either 3200K or 5600K discharge bulbs for more versatility. It can be operated pointing straight down (at 90°) thanks to the design of its ventilation system and its small, flat reflector, and comes with a dimmable ballast that can run at 300Hz or 1000Hz frequency for flicker-free high-speed shooting. Also new is the Bug-A-Beam 1600W, which builds on the success of the existing 400W and 800W versions. 12.E28

theibcdaily Q&A OUTLINED

Roberto Magnifico, VP sales & marketing, Fischer Connectors Has IBC come at a good time for the electronic media industry? Why? IBC brings broadcasters and service providers together to find solutions to pressing industry challenges. As huge opportunities – like broadband and UHD TV, 4K/8K – open up, broadcasters need to provide better content faster and more economically across multiple platforms and connected devices. Fischer Connectors is at IBC to share expertise and showcase innovative solutions to “make broadcast easier” (our stand’s motto).

it can be removed, for re-use on another cable, as a Rip-Lock Key comes in every package. 12.A64

The specialist broadcast industry software house is showcasing significant new products, features and other news at IBC2016. Broadcast Bionics’ range of software products work together making a radio station’s content quickly discoverable and easily shareable. The company said this makes the range a good fit for multiplatform broadcasting and for giving content longevity. Before a show starts, the OASIS product shows the mood and mind of the

audience and directs a user to the best social media content. As the programme begins, Virtual Director will automatically switch cameras to visualise and stream every link. Immediately as a fader is closed, it takes just moments to trim and share video clips to social media, claimed the company. The next step is Voice Transcription (VOX). This delivers full text search of the audio. Broadcast Bionics’ object recording software can then open a link into a multitrack editor to allow the rapid repurposing of content for other platforms. 8.D71

More power, less space GatesAir

By Mark Hallinger The Maxiva UAXT-12 and UAXT-16 extend the UAXT range, first introduced in late 2014, to higher power levels not previously available in aircooled transmitters, claimed GatesAir. This gives UHF broadcasters the improved power efficiency and greater modularity of GatesAir’s PowerSmart transmitter designs, said the company, including the third-generation PowerSmart Plus architecture, along with the simplicity of aircooled operation.

The UAXT with advanced PowerSmart designs provide the convenience of air cooling at higher power levels. This offers a clear operational value proposition for broadcasters unable to support liquid-cooling architectures for high-power TV due to the remote location of, or limited real estate within, the RF plant, said GatesAir. With GatesAir’s broadband amplification at the core of the transmitters, it claimed broadcasters could have a smaller footprint for cleaner installation in spacechallenged RF plants. 8.C30

MCAS solution supports SSL credentials OUTLINED

Fastcom Technology By Ian McMurray

Moscheni: “MCAS-SSL Credential brings our customers functionalities that are vital for 4K STBs”

A topic of discussion with visitors on the Fastcom Technology stand is its recent announcement that Fastcom’s MCAS solution now supports SSL credentials to secure 4K STBs deployed in the field. With the advent of 4K STBs, Fastcom points out, pay-TV operators need to implement two-way authentication between the head-end and STBs. The MCAS-SSL Credential is deployed to create a trusted connection between the payTV operator’s head-end and STBs, providing confidentiality and mutual authentication. Dr Fabrice Moscheni, managing director, Fastcom, said: “The MCAS-SSL Credential brings our customers functionalities that are vital for 4K STBs. It is an

What’s the reality of VR? OUTLINED

Stan Moote, CTO, IABM VR is undoubtedly one of the hot topics at IBC this year and visitors are seeing plenty of new developments on the show floor and hearing about the latest thinking in the conference too. VR is certainly already starting to find traction in sports event coverage (I’ll discuss later whether this can actually yet be classified as live broadcasting), and I am really enjoying hearing how this exciting new visual technique can be successfully applied as a storytelling medium; sport, after all, is not a story – it’s an event with multiple points of interest at any one time. In contrast, a drama most definitely is a story, and how to embrace the enormous possibilities of VR while leading your viewers through a storyline is one of the big talking points at IBC.

The best seat in the house In sports broadcasting, at first glance, VR looks like a no brainer. What could be better than having the best seat in the house to take in all the action? You can hear and feel the rest of the crowd around you, and see the person who just spilt beer down your neck! Or you can check out what the coach is doing while the main live action cameras would be concentrated on the battle to score points. Don’t forget that full surround sound is a key component to feeling like you are actually there.

Give me more! Counter-intuitively, though, while this may be the best seat in the house, it seems

that this is not always enough for the VR viewer sitting at home: it gets boring. We still expect to see the myriad of zooms, replays and stats just like we are used to on the bigscreen TV when watching the live broadcast. This can be partly solved by putting stats and zooms either side of the VR viewer’s focus point: turn your head left for stats and right for zooms or replays. All sounds cool, however VR is not (yet) a real-time medium; over a second of processing time is required, hence yet more challenges to confront to run it alongside the live action. So I would say that as we stand today, VR for sports events is not a replacement for traditional live broadcasting, but a complementary stream that offers extra viewer engagement. The bottom line: sports rights holders still need to figure out how to make money with VR.

Challenging storytellers VR storytellers are debating how to handle VR cuts. As VR is a virtual out of body experience I can see this because I’m sure that like me you’ve woken up in a hotel on your travels and have taken a second or two to adjust to unfamiliar surroundings. Because of the immersive nature of VR, cutting between two scenes can have a similar effect: you need a few moments to work out where you now are and feel comfortable with it, otherwise it’s going to be quite disturbing. Current thinking is that cuts are possible in VR storytelling, but they need to be both infrequent and slowly made to be able to take the

Soft colours for studio LED Cineo Lighting/LCA By David Fox The Cineo HSX is a colourtuneable (2700K-6500K) soft source with the same light output as the Cineo HS2 Remote Phosphor fixture. The

audience along with you. All this being said, VR documentaries can be spectacular. Time can be permitted for the viewer to look around in the full 360-degree environment. No doubt these VR productions will cause the return of the ‘voice of God’ narrations in documentaries as they can guide the viewers as to what and where to look. Did I mention audio? Audio is critical to the whole VR world: we rely on our ears to help us make sense of an awful lot of what we experience in our everyday activities. Hence, a lot of work is going on right now in getting audio to perfectly complement VR visuals.

Looking forward, sideways and backwards…

“We’ve leveraged the HS platform, with over 3,000 units sold, to provide the same Cineo colour quality in a colour tuneable, compact, high power studio fixture,” said Chuck Edwards, CTO of Cineo Lighting. “When developing the HSX, we wanted to add digital colour changing to the features and standards that users of our Remote Phosphor fixtures have

come to appreciate. The HSX has the same footprint, optical power, weight, and uses the same accessories as the HS.” A DoubleDown warranty

So, where do I stand on VR? For me it’s a tremendously exciting technology beyond gaming and commercial usage. It is already making a mark in our industry: lots of investment and head scratching on both the creative and business sides. Attendees are learning at IBC is how far it can go into the world of visual storytelling. I am however certain there are visionaries who will pick up this new medium and find new ways of telling great stories with it.

Pawa to the people Meeting the 8K OUTLINED

storage challenge

EBS.TV By Anne Morris

IBM

A new version of EPG scheduling application Pawa is being demonstrated at IBC to show content owners how they can adapt their EPG data requirements to meet the data workflow needs of any content distribution platform, in any country. Pawa is the flagship application of EBS.TV, which connects TV content data and provides metadata and EPG services to platforms worldwide. EBS has over 20 years’ experience working with key players in the industry such as BBC Worldwide, BT Sport, AMC Networks, Turner Broadcasting, MultiChoice and BSkyB. Pawa ensures that media companies can control brand

By Adrian Pennington

The EPG is getting smarter, with increased levels of data

consistency across all channels, regardless of where content is accessed. This means that viewers can rely on the channel to deliver the quality of programmes that they expect. It provides a number of key EPG data services, as a managed service handled in-house by EBS or as a ‘software-as-a-service’ option with full training and support.

These include deep metadata; additional data sets; driving channels’ schedules directly from programme library; EPG scheduling and distribution; validation reports – displaying missing data or incorrect fields; TV metadata solutions; VOD-EPG integration; press schedules; and editorial and translation services. 14.B01

The evolution from HD to UHD at 4K and 8K is moving rapidly and the amount of video data is increasing exponentially. Conventional IT technologies for capture, transfer and deep data processing, such as non-linear editing and archive processes, are hardly sufficient. To handle such large files, IBM has proposed FLAPE, a combination of the first three letters of flash storage and the last two letters of tape. IBM FlashSystem is an all-flash storage that achieves 1.1M I/O per second and 10GB/s data rate in read. This can support 8K uncompressed data streaming.

According to the company, IBM Enterprise Tape offers 10TB per cartridge capacity with a 360MB/s data rate, which works as a large capacity, cost-effective, robust and long-term storage for the UHD workflow. For metadata management, including a low-resolution video or a proxy file preview, the use of cloud technology is highly anticipated. With JVC and For-A, IBM plans to build a cloud-based MAM on IBM SoftLayer, with IBM Cloud Object Storage from Cleversafe. This will allow an IP-ready video camera to ingest every cut of video in real time by itself to a cloud MAM for users to narrow down the files for post production processing. 15.MS22

Goal Sport Software By Heather McLean Goal Sport Software, provider of an all-in-one platform for sporting events, is showcasing the release of new features at this year’s show. After what it said was “intensive development looking at the demands of the market”, Goal Sport Software is presenting “the definitive solution for integration issues”. Easy operation is one of the main benefits of the new

design features. The entire system can be managed by one person, and despite it being an all-in-one solution, it is designed to be simple; the software has a userfriendly approach even for beginners, said the company, with dynamic handling that a broadcast transmission for sports demands. The redesigned interface also allows the content to be shown with large previews and organised playlists. Goal Sport Software supports the creation of

complex scenes using synchronised content on multiple screens with lighting, audio and projection effects, and it can also be used live. The company added that spectators had the ability to interact and customise content via their smartphones, while leagues, referees and TV channels could be supplied with accurate tools for video analysis at the games. In a similar fashion, clubs could have relevant information for managing their teams. 11.B10

Infinity Arm lets it all hang out By David Fox The new Infinity Arm is claimed to be “a reliable and indestructible articulating arm” that can support a wide variety of cameras, lights, monitors or other equipment. It was developed by director Sage Seb, who said: “I’ve had camera support arms fall apart in the middle of the shoot, with no access to repair or replacement. Trying to make-do

costs time – not to mention a l ot of gaffer tape.” He decided he needed a camera support arm that he could trust: “that would be reliable, no matter how many times I repeated a move or how difficult the conditions. I needed to be able to hang and mount expensive camera/lens packages and customise the arm to whatever you need to get the job done.” After launching it as a Kickstarter project, Seb looked for a manufacturer to perfect it, and joined up with Matthews,

By Will Strauss A 6G-SDI extender for sending 4K resolution SDI camera feeds up to a distance of 985ft over fibre is on show at IBC. The 6G-SDI Extender over Fiber Optic device from MuxLab can make it possible to use a single fibre optic cable to transport four HD-SDI streams at 1080i, two 3G-SDI streams at 1080p, or one 6GSDI stream at 4K. Using OM4 multimode fibre cabling, an extension of up to 400m is possible for 6G/3G/HDSDI with that reach increased to 40km for 6G/3G/HD-SDI if using single mode fibre. A Cat5e/6 model is also available supporting an

extension up to 150m for 6G/3G/HD-SDI. MuxLab suggests that the device is appropriate for mobile broadcasting, studio-to-studio production, post production and live events. Daniel Assaraf, president, MuxLab, said: “MuxLab’s aim is to bring high-quality connectivity solutions to the market that provide alternative extension methods. We take pride in what we do, and it is reflected in our ingenuity and in the quality of our workmanship.” The 6G-SDI Extender supports SDI configurations up to 4K.

Crisp, cost-efficient, consistent, controlled The next generation of robotic cameras produce the smoothest motion and the best ROI, contends David Workman, director of business development, Telemetrics The broadcast industry is under continuous pressure to produce local news content more efficiently and reduce costs. Although the daily news segment is typically profitable for television stations, it is expensive to produce and the competition is fierce; viewers have high expectations for a very clean, well-produced, informative and entertaining programme. Automating some elements in the production usually entails a substantial upfront investment, but can dramatically reduce ongoing operational costs. The primary reason for automation, however, is that it also improves the quality and consistency of the show, providing flexibility for a broadcaster to create more complex elements within

their production, and do so using fewer people. Camera robotics are one such set of automation tools available. Robotic cameras allow producers to consistently create more complex movements, and reduce on-air errors at the same time. The timing of the show is typically much crisper, holding the viewers’ attention and giving the talent the opportunity to interact more with the audience. Without that continuity, many viewers will reach for the remote before the next commercial break. For a news show to look amazing, however, the camera movements have to be perfectly smooth. It doesn’t matter if the camera is manually operated or under the control of a robotics

system, it needs to have a fluid and natural motion. A production using robotics can have more complex moves and better consistency than a manual show, but the perceived quality will fall short if the motion is not smooth or if the camera wobbles, especially when it first starts moving or decelerates quickly to a complete stop. Adding a teleprompter makes it even more difficult to get that perfectly smooth motion. The teleprompter not only adds additional weight, but the outer hood usually has some flex to it; and any wobble in the hood will jiggle the camera as well, which will be very apparent in the video. The Telemetrics PT-LP-S5 robotic camera head is a great

To address the wobble issue, the innovative ‘dual cradle’ design features separate mounts for the camera and teleprompter. This mechanical isolation provides smooth on-air movements under all conditions.

New deal for Suggested TV Easel TV By Anne Morris Curzon Home Cinema signed a multi-year deal with multiscreen cloud video software company Easel TV during IBC2016, extending a collaboration that began in 2013. Easel TV has operated Curzon Home Cinema since its relaunch in May 2014, using its cloudbased video platform Suggested TV on 12 different connected devices including smart TVs,

operator set-top boxes, Apple iOS, Android, desktop and soon on Apple TV and Google Cast. Curzon Home Cinema director Phil Mordecai said the company’s partnership with Easel TV and the Suggested TV product “has been significantly enhanced as we have both invested to support our future growth. A key strategic focus for the Curzon group is to expand both our physical and digital footprints and Easel TV has been, and will continue to be, part of that.” For Easel TV co-founder and

chief operating officer Bill Scott, the contract renewal is a further vindication of the product’s evolution in the last 12 months. “We have done a lot of work to productise our technology,” Scott said, noting that the platform has gained functional upgrades and promotional capabilities such as the ability to place banners on trailers. “It’s a much more complete business offer,” said Scott, “including new analytics tools that can be used to analyse the consumer experience as well as

Amira Multicam on song Arri By David Fox The new Amira Multicam system allows broadcasters to shoot cinematic live events under the control of standard Sony remote control panels. It is already being used for a popular Chinese TV talent show, I Am a Singer, produced by Hunan Television, where

23 Amiras, which the channel bought, were used for the live season finale. The camera’s ability to handle highlights are a big attraction for the station, as it is for other users, such as Amazon, which is using the UHD output for the Amira for the upcoming Jeremy Clarkson series, The Grand Tour. Amazon has also adopted Arri’s Alexa to shoot

season three of its acclaimed UHD hit, Mozart in the Jungle, thanks to the camera’s HDR capabilities. “We’ve always said dynamic range is really important,” said Stephan Schenk, MD of Arri, who pointed out that it is still able to use material shot on an Alexa in 2010 to demonstrate HDR at IBC today. 12.F21

TV Skyline upgrades to UHD Grass Valley By David Fox Germany’s TV Skyline has bought 21 LDX series cameras from Grass Valley, including 12 of the new LDX 86N Ultra HD cameras with HDR capabilities. These will mainly be used with its newest truck, OB8, which was designed and integrated in-house, and went into use last September, but “what we did not do this time last year was buy cameras. I’ve not been satisfied with the options in the market,” said Wolfgang Reeh, CEO and owner, TV Skyline. He likes that the 86N can not only do UHD, but also native HD output at the same time, going to separate M/Es on OB8’s SAM Kahuna 9600

57 IBC D5 2016 v3.indd 1

Reeh will use his new LDX 86N cameras for the Champion’s League

switcher, which can up-convert any HD signals in the switcher and handle both HD and UHD as separate signal paths.

The other cameras it is buying include seven compact LDX 80c HD models, and two LDX 80 Premiere units for HD wireless use. “It does not make sense to go UHD for wireless at the moment, because we do not have a good 4K wireless solution.” It is using 3G-SDI cameras and up-converting, which looks OK depending on the conditions, focal length and other variables. HDR is becoming important. TV Skyline will start covering Champions League football in HDR UHD early next year and will also output HD 1080i SDR from the same truck. “It is pretty complex, but we’ve already done it without HDR with no problem. However, adding the HDR makes it much more difficult,” he said. 1.D11

for marketing strategies”. Like many exhibitors at IBC OUTLINED this year, Scott stressed the growing importance of analytics for tracking and measuring how consumers use digital media services. “However, it is not a deal breaker yet as it can be added in,” he stressed, pointing out that the main requirement is still to provide high-quality video services with a good quality of experience. Easel TV has also picked up some new customers in recent months including NBCUniversal (NBCU) in January, building the hayu app for NBCU’s reality subscription VoD service on the TiVo service provided by Virgin Media. Scott commented that the fact that

NBCU has launched hayu as an app rather than a channel is an interesting development for the industry, reflecting a move away from traditional TV content delivery. 14.C08

Convergence makes broadcasters vulnerable to cyber attack By George Jarrett Cyber security has been a hot subject at IBC. In announcing a supplier security checklist, a beginner’s guide and a longer user guide, DPP MD Mark Harrison said: “Collectively I cannot think of a more important subject than cyber security.” Members had told the DPP that their slow take up of the internet and connected services had been due to security worries. The next speaker, Michael McEwen, director general of the North American Broadcasters Association (NABA) said: “Cyber security was a blip on the horizon five years ago, but that suddenly

changed when Sony was hacked. Today it is one of our top strategic issues in the US because we will never protect ourselves fully from attacks.” DPP chair and ITV director of broadcast operations, Helen Stevens added: “Broadcasters are attractive targets. For them it is becoming a really big issue simply because of convergence. They cannot protect one thing and ring-fence it.” The DPP is looking to a set of principles to start with. With a document listing a set of cyber requirements, it plans to work closely with the EBU and the IABM. “We will include those principles in technology refresh cycles with suppliers from January 2017,” said Stevens.

MTX-100 among latest technologies Datavideo By Carolyn Giardina Datavideo is showing its first multiformat video and KVM matrix switcher technology, including its MTX-100, a 12input, eight-output system meant to be used with a variety of HDMI and 3G-SDI video sources. Another featured technology is the RMC-400, an addition to its HDR-10 replay recorder technology that enables the

producer to stack a maximum of four HDR-10 recorders, and control them simultaneously. Also on stand is Datavideo’s KMU-100 4K video processor, which could be used to create a virtual eight-camera HD shoot, with the use of two 4K sources. The KMU-100 converts Ultra HD video (3840×2160) into four user-defined HD windows, ready to ingest into a switcher. With two independent 4K channels, KMU-100 can generate up to eight 3G-SDI outputs. 7.D39

OTT and IP open up cyber dangers

AIMS chairman pays credit to IBC’s role in IP interoperability debate OUTLINED

Reflecting on Friday’s historic gathering of leading executives, who joined to stand shoulder to shoulder in support of the IBC Interoperability Zone, AIMS chairman, Mike Cronk (pictured), offered his thanks to IBC and its CEO Michael Crimp, for facilitating this unprecedented collaborative show of strength. Cronk said: “We are so thrilled that hundreds of broadcasters are now really engaged with IP interoperability in a much deeper and more committed way thanks to our presence here at IBC. This is in large part down to Mike Crimp’s leadership and the wider IBC staff. Mike personally gave this initiative so much focus plus

put his top team onto the project so that IBC was much more than a provider of space, but acted as a real facilitator of the industry’s IP interoperability roadmap. The focus and attention the IBC team has delivered means that hundreds of our colleagues in the industry now have a much more tangible appreciation of the benefits and practical realities of IP interoperability.” The IBC IP Interoperability Zone is presented for the first time this year with the cooperation of AIMS and the IABM.

Fibre and cable future TSL Products By Heather McLean TSL Systems has expanded its fibre and structured cabling service, which now covers planning, design and installation of WLAN, cabling, fibre and CCTV. The company said the service fits seamlessly with its existing offerings of consultancy, system design, installation and support. It has also added maintenance to its portfolio of offerings, enabling it to provide the full lifecycle of support to customers. Roger Henderson, CEO at TSL Systems, commented: “This is the evolution of the systems integration industry, mirroring the IT industry, because that’s where

our arena is moving to. Ten to 15 years ago, the broadcast industry didn’t want service contracts, but over the last five or six years they have come to accept they need them because people are using increasingly high tech studios, but many don’t have the bandwidth to manage the stuff running in the background. When things get bad we’ve got the resources to support our customers,” he said. TSL Systems has added to its team because of the additional workload of its fibre and cabling business, and also the services and maintenance area. Its UK team has expanded by six engineers in recent months, while the team in Dubai has doubled in size from six to 12 employees. “We recognise that, as our industry changes, so we have to

Dark fibre ring: Oslo, Norway, is the location for Norwia’s recent implementation of a 12-node dark fibre ring architecture for video transport for NRK, the government-owned TV and radio broadcaster. Tracey J W Ford, chief sales and marketing officer at Norwia, commented: “The whole system is designed around one card using our Auto SFP product, that enables over 200 different combinations on the one card. This is a bare-bones, basic ring structure network but Auto SFP brings this to a new level of usability with simplicity.” The network operates on two rings: the media network ring which has equipment installed at each node and the news ring for portable usage that consists of two systems.

Looking back at the belated obsession with cyber security that has consumed the industry over the past five days, EBU director of technology Simon Fell said: “It is a changing world, and the work that people have done on OTT and other new areas has suddenly exposed companies to cyber dangers. “Most good IT departments within broadcasters are aware of the constant threats and have been dealing with them for years. But no-one talks about it,” he added. “The connectivity from an IP studio makes it even more of a risk, because we are not in the world of being isolated with our cables anymore. Suddenly, our media is

mixed up with our email, so everything is kind of on the same IP network. “Our online delivery is on that same network. It is much harder to figure out what is exposed to what, so you have to have good security policies and architecture inside your studio plan, to make sure things are isolated where they should be,” said Fell. “There are companies that have loads of servers sitting there ready for you to buy for an attack. No single antivirus software product is going to solve this. It requires an arsenal of tools, and an arsenal of people who know how to manage this invasion,” he added. “It takes 90 to 100 days before people realise something bad happened.”

Capturing audio for VR/AR Sennheiser By Mark Hallinger Recording immersive audio for VR productions typically has involved complicated microphone set-ups. The Ambeo VR Mic, which is on display at Sennheiser’s IBC stand and also in IBC’s Future Zone, puts everything into a compact and easy-to-use handheld unit. “For the user to gain a truly immersive experience, it is imperative that the sound within VR is also 3D,” said Kai Lange, product manager, broadcast and media for Sennheiser. The Ambeo VR Mic is an Ambisonics microphone that uses four carefully selected, matched capsules in a

tetrahedral arrangement. Also included is the necessary encoding software that translates the A format file generated from the recording of the four microphone channels into a B format file W, X, Y and Z. This format is recognised in the Ambisonics world, the W component being the omni and the X, Y, Z components being figureof-eight capsules along three spatial axes. The Ambeo VR Mic development process was accompanied by intensive field testing with VR content producers, and the unit will target VR production agencies, VR content creators, the Ambisonics community and others when it becomes available in November. 8.D50

This year’s 4K 4Charity Fun Run raised more than $35,000 in donations for global and local charitable organisations. The event drew approximately 450 registrants, an increase compared to last year. The top three male finishers were Andy Hickman of Eurofins Digital Testing, Ben Cop of Altera (now part of Intel) and Todd Kelly of Aspera. The top three female finishers were Laura Petrosillo of Aspera, Amy Cope-Balchin and Laney Lewis of IBM Cloud Video. “We are deeply appreciative of the generosity of both our sponsors and the individual participants, as well as for the strong support from our

Pay-TV has “goofed up” By Ann-Marie Corvin “TV should be an easy, pleasurable and instantly immersive experience but in pay-TV we almost goofed up – we’ve given people a coffee table full of remotes and fragmented content and apps.”

There was no disagreement from other panel members with this statement from Ivan Verbesselt, senior vice president of marketing at Nagra, during Sunday’s ‘Next-Gen TV UX’ session, which explored the challenges of creating a seamless viewing experience

The panel was united in its calls for a simpler UX experience’

By Mark Hallinger The digital and analogue worlds don’t always collide, sometimes there’s a nice logical merging. Such is the case with the acquisition of Dutch producer of film editing tables Steenbeck by Danish film digitisation company Vintage Cloud. For more than 60 years, Steenbeck has been prominent

61 IBC D5 2016 v3.indd 1

in the world of film editing tables. Four years ago, when Vintage Cloud started developing its film digitiser, the logical choice of mechanical foundation was, of course, the Steenbeck editing table. Hay Janssen, owner of Steenbeck, said: “Vintage Cloud has really developed a digitiser of high-quality based on Steenbeck’s editing table, and they will be able to take the company into the digital future.”

in a world of de-bundling and standalone OTT services. Verbesselt added that while IBC was a B2B show, vendors should be thinking of themselves as selling UX solutions that are B2B4C. “‘We need to see huge simplifications going forward – there is a huge stretch between what people do and what we would like them to do.” Google’s head of Android, Sascha Prueter, noted that viewer interaction with TV was key. “We have to decide whether the old remote control is really the right vehicle for this interaction and, if so, how we can integrate this with other devices. Moving forward, I think that voice would be a better interaction model.”

Peter Englesson, co-founder of Vintage Cloud, concurred. “The film world has become digital, but you still have to work with the old analogue film material when you digitise, and that is where Steenbeck has its unrivalled advantage. You could say that the high-end digitisation system, developed by Vintage Cloud, works as the brain in the system, whereas the Steenbeck table acts as its trusted heart and body.” 8.C01

Aiming to create more efficiency in post production facilities, Quantum is showing how its Xcellis workflow storage can support animation and editorial teams working together and sharing content. This is being demonstrated at IBC with Blackmagic’s DaVinci Resolve for colour grading at the same time as Autodesk Flame for compositing and rendering. Senior product marketing

manager Janet Lafleur said: “In many facilities, the teams don’t share a common storage system, meaning that they have to make copies, tying up their system so they can’t work. With this combined platform they can be more efficient and share content more directly.” She added that Xcellis “offers the right performance profile to animation, while at the same time being able to stream up to four streams of 16-bit uncompressed 4K”. 7.B27

Improved streaming in bad conditions Comrex/Vortex Communications By David Fox CrossLock is a significant enhancement to the Comrex ACCESS and LiveShot codecs, taking care of multiple IP streams, data loss and codec to codec connectivity. It can create an end-toend virtual private network connection and manages changes in data throughput and any difficulties in using multiple data streams for diversity and bonding. It is particularly useful for big events where there is a lot of demand for mobile data services, making better use of available data connectivity to provide the best quality with the lowest delay possible. CrossLock mitigates the effect of delayed and lost packets by using forward error correction and error masking,

and BRUTE (BroadcastReliable UDP Transmission Enhancement) including congestion avoidance, which clocks the data down to fit into the available pipeline. The end result is that error-free live streaming should be possible even with 25 per cent packet loss (or more). It also combines data streams to provide greater bandwidth and increased reliability, by using multiple data paths, which is difficult to do well without additional delay, so clever data throttling is needed. New firmware released at IBC includes CrossLock capability with multi-streaming included as standard for the ACCESS and LiveShot codecs, supporting the use of multiple 3G/4G/WiFi/ Ethernet connections in any combination where previously, expensive multi-SIM external modems were needed. 12.G11

Battle of the brands OUTLINED

By Catherine Wright Is it harder or easier to market your brand in a multiplatform world? How do you grab the attention of audiences, especially those younger millennials when there is so much content out there and so easily available? These are some of the questions members on the panel ‘Storytelling in a Multiplatform World’ had to grapple with,

after presenting some of their work on recent ad campaigns. “It is getting much harder to target audiences than five years ago and much more resource intensive,” said Lee Raftery, the marcom executive vice president of NBCUniversal in the UK. The company recently launched Hayu in the UK, a reality show ondemand service with a massive promotional campaign, using traditional TV advertising as

well as social media and online marketing. But there are also a number of new advantages, he acknowledged, especially “getting real-time data back from the content and being able to better tailor it as you go along”. According to Canal+ creative director Olivier Schaack, part of the problem is having to get multiple messages across at the same time and the hierarchy of communicating them. “People

4K sports encoder showcased NTT Electronics By Will Strauss A 4K HEVC encoder and decoder designed for use during sports event coverage is being shown for the first time at IBC.

have to understand that all our different channels belong to the same group and have the same DNA as our flagship Canal+ channel and we haven’t quite cracked it yet,” he admitted. The group is planning to launch a web-based drama series hub

later this year called Studio Plus, with a view to seducing a new, younger audience. “Most of our subscribers are now 60plus,” he admitted, the ageing demographic being one of the key problems the French broadcaster has to face.

Nokia: why VR is crucial to the future of entertainment Nokia

By David Wood VR is the entertainment industry’s best hope for holding onto young audiences who increasingly watch less TV and more video online on mobile devices and platforms such as YouTube. So says Nokia’s Vesa Rantanen, head of research and development at Nokia Technologies. The industry needs to change its thinking about entertainment and the idea that video content can continue to be a shared linear experience, argued Rantanen, speaking at a Future Zone session on the future of media. “The idea of a shared experience has already gone. Just look at how school kids are connected. They all watch video on YouTube on mobile and use social media platforms and constantly interact on Snapchat.” The advantage of VR is that it is entertainment delivered

over headsets which have the ability to command your attention with three to five-minute experiences. Immersive VR viewing has one big advantage over traditional media in that it gives you the complete and undivided attention of your viewer. That is of huge importance for advertisers, said Rantanen. The creation of meaningful and immersive VR entertainment experiences was another big challenge, he added. The good news is that launches such as Disney Movies VR means that there will definitely be more meaningful virtual reality entertainment experiences. “Essentially it all boils down to content,” said Rantanen, “which is why Nokia came up with the OZO [VR camera], to make the job of creating great quality VR content easier.” China will be a big driver of the VR market, he predicts, because it already has a community of 200m gamers. 8.F02
