Merrill Weiss Monthly Technology Webcast — Complimentary for SMPTE Members TITLE: Low-Latency Live Streaming https://www.smpte.org/webcasts/Low-Latency SPEAKER: Russell Trafford-Jones, broadcast engineer, editor of TheBroadcastKnowledge.com WHEN: Thursday, May 16, 1 p.m. EDT Live video streaming over the internet is a big growth area for broadcasters and OTT services alike. Broadcasters are expected to have live streams at a similar latency to their broadcasts, while pure-streaming services see matching the latency of over-the-air broadcasters as another way to prove their legitimacy and further swing viewing over to the internet. Work continues apace in developing technologies that can deliver ultra-low latency. We will look at how it can be achieved, what the status is of those projects, and how well they stack up in real life. SMPTE Technology Webcasts are complimentary for SMPTE Members.

The DCP needed to be functional with existing deployed systems while also maintaining backward compatibility with existing Dolby ATMOS content and rendering systems. Work was done to create a track file (ST 429-18) that would be compatible with a DCinema CPL (ST 429-7), and concurrently, to create additional constraints for Immersive Audio DCPs (ST 429-19) that would be used in addition to, and maintaining compliance with, current DCP Operation Constraints (ST 429-2). This webcast will explore these topics in depth. SMPTE Standards Webcasts are free and open to all.
