Abstract:
While the Radio world has already several years of experience with file-based production and transmission, the TV side is just at the beginning of the transition toward a fully file-based workflow. This is a significant change—one that poses many challenges on the engineers, the infrastructure, the equipment, and the system that ties it all together. Buzzwords like Content Management System, MXF (Material Exchange Format), Buffer Storage, or Playout Server enter the world of the audio engineer—often causing considerable panic. In this workshop representatives of broadcasters who have already gained some experiences in this field will share their viewpoints, introduce their specific solutions to common problems, and generally raise the awareness and urgency to dive into this world. It will soon be the daily life of us all.
