HD live streaming in Belgium
My buddy Jo from Rambla.be let me know they’re offering the first HD live stream in Belgium. Streaming as we speak, they’ll cover a live concert of Calexico in about half an hour.
See the concert on the (excellent new) site of the Ancienne Belgique where they teamed up with.
Kudos to all involved!
Good quality but HD it definitely was not.
Another great project, another scoop, thanks for mentioning it! More than 1500 unique visitors, so we kind of doubled AB’s capacity. One of the on-line visitors even wanted to pay for watching the live stream … Whow, paying for on-line video. Seems like a new business model is luring for AB :-p More comments can be found on http://www.abconcerts.be/nl/abtv/p/detail/calexico
Thanks to complete crew!
It sure was good quality, to call it HD can indeed be discussed. Technically speaking it was: everything was filmed in HD, mixed in HD, HD-SDI input for encoder, … The limiting factor was bandwidth, both on uplink side as on client side (see comments on AB-site). So we had to lower the bandwidth to an acceptable level. Another call for some ISP’s to raise their capacity. But hey, people were happy with this crisp video quality And there is more to come …
