Even though NeuLion has the jump Ntek could close the gap real fast and overtake it in Live 4k broadcasting for the fact we got The Best 'The Golden Goose"
NeuLion is now delivering live 4K content to connected 4K sets over a 15 Mbps connection. At CES, the company was demoing the app it built for the World Surf League, which has been filming events in 4K for a number of years. More sports leagues will follow suit as the technology becomes more pervasive.
One of the biggest roadblocks to offering live 4K content is upgrading the costly filming equipment. “Doing a 4K truck is millions of dollars, it’s a refresh on equipment – that is a challenge because a lot of this equipment was bought with the notion that the equipment was going to last a long time,” Grab said. “The good news is that equipment does get updated all the time, as that happens, they’re going to have more capabilities.” Production flows are also now incorporating more pure-IP systems, which helps to optimize 4K content production. “The whole production side is coming into 4K pretty quickly,” he said.
The other side of the coin is the household. 2015 was a breakout year for 4K TV sales, but Grab estimates only about 20% of homes in the States have broadband speeds capable of streaming 4K content. “But you’re probably not doing multiple streams of 4K,” he said. “So there’s an Internet upgrade that has to happen. [color]blue]That’s going to take a little bit of time[/color] , but I would never bet against the Internet. We know the Internet is going to get faster.”
