NewSpring’s Multi-site Video Technology

September 16, 2008 in Inside GCC,Technology with Comments Off

This past weekend we unveiled the new video technology solution at the NewSpring Greenville campus. There have been a number of questions since that news from folks wanting more specifics. With that in mind, I sat down with the Jayson and Stephen from Eastgate Productions to talk about the solution we are using to deliver video content. Here’s the interview in two parts.

    Would love to see what more of the technical specs are for the system. What data rate (1mb, 2mb, 5mb?) are you encoding and transferring at, what encoder did you end up using, doremi for time-shift or something else?

    Thanks

    I’m interested in the bi-directional capability that Jayson and Stephen were talking about. This is something we’re attmepting at my church with the combined use of satellite and internet. Since you’re time-shifting with the video streams being synced by the doremis, what would happen if you truly went LIVE without the ability to lock the streams in sync (basically bypassing the doremis). Seems like bi-directional would work with only one video stream from the originating campus, but two streams makes my head hurt.

    I guess my question is, can you go LIVE with both of your video streams without time-shifting, or are you reliant on the doremis to sync your streams together?

    Very interesting application for the House of Worship market. We’ve been doing Bi-Directional Conferencing for over 20years, However the newer Internet centric technologies like Haivision and others have finally made it viable for this market as far as connectivity, integration of HOW AV and production value etc.
