Media Links Targets Video-Over-IP for Remote Production

At NAB, Media Links (booth SU4324) Media Links will demonstrate the real-time delivery of high quality, low latency 4K and 3G/HD-SDI content required to support remotely produced events. The benefits associated with an increase in the number of camera feeds as well as a higher consumption of bandwidth can be measured against significant cost savings associated with eliminating Satellite uplink, additional OB Trucks and supporting a centralized production.

A Remote Production environment utilizing the Media Links standards-based IP transport solutions, ensures Broadcasters are able to ingest live feeds as MPEG-2 TS over IP streams, directly to the Studio workflow..

In conjunction with a high profile network provider, EMC and For-A, Media Links will also be demonstrating ‘live to file’ ingest of uncompressed HD-SDI video encapsulated with SMPTE 2022. SMPTE 2022 is a standard way to encapsulate high performance video signals for transport over IP networks. The ‘live to file’ capture application sets the stage for improved workflow efficiencies. A live to file workflow offers immediate record and playout functionality, and delivers content directly to the studio in a format suitable for immediate editing.
