September Meeting

Presented by:

Using DVB-S2 and MPEG-4 for
Improved DSNG & Satellite Broadcast Performance
Holy Smokes Barbecue at 6:30PM
Meeting at 7:30PM
Joint Meeting with SBE

The presentation will take a look at DVB-S2 and MPEG-4 AVC and how these
new technologies relate to satellite applications. What advantages does the
"S2" flavor bring? How do latency and 1060p fit into the mix? What are VCM
and ACM and how do they compare to AVC? Our speaker, Mr. David Mitchinson,
is Tandberg's Business Development Director of DSNG Systems and joined the
company when it was NDS. David has designed many of the DVB-T systems
that are in use today by European broadcasters. Prior to Tandberg, he was a
Senior Engineer with the BBC's Transmission Engineering Group.
