A debt of Thanks and Gratitude to HighTech for hel

A debt of Thanks and Gratitude to HighTech for help and sharing of knowledge.

ERIC sure seems to be in the thck of things, (and leadership position in middleware). Given recent tweets about Fiber Loops leads me to think about posible choke points; hence satellites......Intelsat (I) (while a leader) chart only shows for less than 6 months, however prior year launch was geared to handle 4K......something seems in the pipeline to me,
any thoughts?

Hightech 
I agree with you Chess, Ericsson is heading in the same direction or vision that DUTV is stated on heading. DUTV did reference (tweet) towards a possible relationship with Intelsat and Ericsson. DD shows that Intelsat and Eric are collaborating to work with 4K television technologies and bandwidth compression for the same 4K resolution and transmission speed. They have purchased Microsoft, with its Cloud technologies which will assist in media and bandwidth control. They have just PR building of 3 R&D sites for future Cloud development. Huge for Ericsson.

As for DUTV -AM hoping the we are in works with Ericsson since its the same theory and design that DUTV has boasted about from the beginning. All we can say is lay and wait to find out if they are at least 1 of our partners. Hopefully more and more to come.

As for DUTV - FIBER Minutes Is HUGE...Big big revs in data transmissions and if you control the complete fiber loop..OMG and I believe we own 2. 1 down in the JNAP area and 1 up between North America, London and China (guessing at best here). If we do or any part of this loop, HUGE revs for just minutes alone, when 90 pct of data is streaming video. Imagine HOURS online steaming and we collect miniutes on the WHOLE Fiber Loop. That's a lot of Minutes.. Makes me smile.

If that is the case. Again - best guess since no such news exists... Best to you Chess.

Think about this, YOU could invest in a TV station, lets say VUTV, and get revs from that show from people watching it. OR you could
Purchase a fiber loop and
1. get a pct of revs for each TV station that transmits or uses your fiber loop out of the area (which is pretty much the same as all tv stations follow)
2. get a pct of revs for Microsoft XBOX games and the hours spent playing online, revs for DUTV
3. Smart phone video's
4. VoIP phone calls via Vonage and all other VoIP Providers. Think about all international calls to JNAP or Europe / Asia.

Data minutes could keep the company rolling on its own.

Gets me thinking about it all.

Think post #3959  is worth a drill down

New metadata enables legal content sharing across IPTV platforms 

At last, IPTV is getting a  standard framework for interoperability of rights  information as a result of cooperation between the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and ITU  .
The two bodies have come up with a new metadata standard to ensure that that multimedia content can be shared legally across different platforms by exchanging the relevant rights details.

....Definitely think ITU is also in the thick of things.  Wish DUTV would release some news so we figure how the consortiums play out..........loop minutes pay regardless.  Wouldn't be surprised if something similar on the Sats.

Hightech 
Satts will help bridge the gaps and take the download issues off the fiber loops if needed, allowing data to flow in one direction only in some area's as in JNAP area including Venz and Cuba. The ITU is simply a board that is attempting to set a standard to allow everyone to work correctly together amongst different IPTV platforms. I think GM would be outside of this ITU loop and the ITU is attempting to integrate ours, and everyone else's technologies together to pass as one. Which is great in the long run. Also allows data to pass into our platforms and use our fiber loops for medium transport

Post 3969 - Metadata is simply a form of, lets say, IP Header. An IP header is a leader that is attached in front of data bits that are streaming across a network. An IP header has information of who is it from, who is it two, where do they reside ?? (IP address of computer) all in included in this IP Header.

Well A Metadata is simply this type of header that will be placed in front of the streams so that information can be sent with the header, like billing info, originator, who is the user, service providers, anything that will tell everyone who owned that header and security in headers.. In a nut shell.

Drill down In it ?? Nice reading and understanding it.

I hope this helps, I don't know if you wanted an explanation or just my opinion

chessmite 
Given the nature of the IPTV Everywhere and the intent of ITU for uniformity, (as well as stipend allowance for some open source tech) makes me wonder if GM's tech is an integral part of their foundation going forward......if it was incorporated several layers of protection and length of useage would most likely be added imo.
Think GM's big plan is to be an integral part of all iptv over any medium; hence iptv everywhere.  Vizzads would be icing.

lol, I'd be happy with news of any of it confirmed.

Hightech 
I am sure everyone wants the ITU to set a standard and create something like Metadata headers to keep track of all data bits as they travel, because all data will flow the quickest and shortest amount of hops that it can find. As these bits bounce around and travel down all sorts of fibers loops, satts, and local Telco lines, they will have this ITU standard on them to show who they belong to and who has total accountability and who and where the bit traveled and which platforms and mediums it used in the process. IT will all help with accountability of the data minutes and control the data flow.

chessmite 
lol, both help......not a techman, just trying to hook up a jigsaw puzzle to make a little sense.  It's why I referred to you and Sunny for advice.........line of work and in the field.

Do jump in when myself or others are off track......straight facts best for everyone and I tend to have a skewed view.

Hightech 
I understand and you have it on track. Data all flows back and forth. It goes up has to be told that it arrived or data tries to resend it again until it does.

ITU standard is attempting to be a traffic cop in the middle of the road, holding all data bits at bay. Allowing video and VoIP data traffic (QOS) first for high priority. Then when the lanes are clear and no more high priority traffic the cop lets the slower data bits go to their destination. IP headers tell the cop his home address and where he is heading. The cops directs it using Metadata headers which tell the cop who and where its going and coming and other good stuff. They Metadata headers take control and deliver the data bits or packets to their destination with all information accounted for at destination.

DUTV receives these packets utilizing the compression technologies that are currently supported in their Data Centers and processes them allowing them to pass on out to another network via their Fiber loops or broadcast out to DUTV subscribers or users I. E. Ericsson Media. DUTV

chessmite 
That would seem to be the most efficient and a desired target.  What would happen if DUTV were to get .0001 cent per transmission involving any and all iptv?

Anyway from the little I get, I think GM has been thinking along similar line(s).....getting the biggest bite possible

Hightech 
You got it. Back a few years ago, I worked in Florida as a local phone guy there. I maintained multiple hotels and resorts long distance charges and service. For ever call they made, I received 0.10 per minute and every minute they were on the call as commission. The realer that I passed it on via received .25 cents per minute. Utilizing fiber loops for VoIP and IPTV or just data in general is going to be large consistant data streaming. It will never stop streaming unless the loop gets taken down. However it is they are going to calculate their minutes for data usage, it will be substantial. Even if we don't get anything major like Ericsson. Just having the Pipe is enough. The world is sending EVERYTHING via data now. They pipes will be getting full and large networks and clouds are going to be looking for new fresh Fiber Loops to purchase space or minutes....

YEAH

chessmite 
Don't know when I've had more fun on this one.

Hightech 
I am sure it is going to continue to be a great ride. Pass the info onto the team. ::

......................................................................................................

....hope everyone can make sense of this, (we had several threads going).....as least the gist of it
Looking Forward to actual news for confirmation........even a little would be good.
