Good write-up at IPTV evanglist, some juicy bits :
HD solutions for post production have really improved (up scaling of lower-res clips, resolution and bitstream independent)
There was a buzz on the show floor over the new Flash Media Player and VP6
P6 has been the conduit to mass adoption of media from a codec perspective and everybody is riding that wave right now, the Flash market adoption, heterogeneous OS environment, and cost of ownership is something that cannot be ignored. Most pre and postproduction hardware and software encoders seemed to be boasting new support for Flash encoding and VP6.
With the convergence and focus towards the Internet for ad revenue, the hottest companies where definitely the Internet Content Delivery Networks (Akamai) and ASP’s (ThePlatform, Whiteblox, Dayport, etc)
P2P and Grid Delivery is the only way the pervasiveness of video can really match that of satellite delivery and is seems companies are getting used to that idea, Special plug to Grid Networks who in my opinion have the best business methodology for seeding delivery of instant broadband video
Keeping an eye open for all these, as one of my day job contract is working with a big media 800 pound gorilla in it’s own league here in Canada…
