60 TVBEurope IBC2012 Sneak Preview Viaccess-Orca


Deep diving with new VO


By Ian McMurray


SHOWCASING WHAT the company describes as innovation for second screen content engagement and addressing the new levels of web piracy that operators now have to deal with is Viaccess-Orca — who are now happy to be known as VO. The company is introducing


Deep, which it describes as a brand new family of services. A data enrichment and enhancement platform, Deep is said to provide smart aggregation of second- generation metadata. Rich content related to what


viewers are watching is out there in abundance and available from various sources like news and gossip, images, trailers, games and the list goes on. Deep introduces rich content to the second screen as part of the content service provider offering, engaging the


user on the second screen, before, after and while watching TV as a way to monetise this content and reduce churn. P2P Live Audience Measurement


is a new service for operators to monitor and measure illegitimate peer-to-peer redistribution of live programmes, which is, according to VO, the fastest growing phenomenon of web piracy. VO enables content service providers to assess the threat, including geolocalisation data of peers, samples of the measured streams and a list of available channels. With the introduction of Deep and P2P Live Audience Measurement, VO believes that operators will widen their reach to offer second screen engagement capacities, and stand stronger against illegitimate content redistribution threats. 1.A51

Juicy camera fibre signal transmission


By Monica Heck


MULTIDYNE IS unveiling the SilverBack-II with Juice, a cost- effective, camera-mounted fibre transport solution capable of transmitting any camera signal, including HD-SDI video, audio, control data, GPIOs, tally and power over a single hybrid fibre and copper cable without relying on local power or batteries. Featuring a compact case measuring just over one inch thick, the SilverBack-II with Juice is designed to eliminate operator fatigue in the field by providing users with a lightweight, remote powering system that can seamlessly be integrated onto any camera. MultiDyne said the


SilverBack-II is ideally suited

for news, sports, ENG, D-SNG, OB and multicamera studio applications. It can transport SDI video up to 3G HD-SDI uncompressed with embedded or separate program audio. A return video option also supports up to 3G HD-SDI video for viewfinder or monitor viewing, providing a high-quality viewing experience for users in the field. In addition, the unit enables operators to achieve camera control/RCP paint functions through one of the three available data channels. An additional back channel is


available for camera sync or genlock. Several options are available for optical connectivity including STs, Neutrik opticalCon, Fibreco Mini expanded beam and Lemo 304M.


Visitors to the MultiDyne stand can also see the SMPTE-HUT universal camera transceiver, which is now shipping worldwide. It’s designed to increase the transmission distances of HD cameras that can be distance limited by hybrid copper/fibre cabling. The company describes it as a high-performance transport system which is ideal for remote broadcasting, sports, shared control rooms, campus facilities, and arena and stadium applications.


The SMPTE-HUT is said to


cost-effectively enable full camera operation, in even the most rugged broadcasting environments, extending transmission ranges up to 10km on just two singlemode fibres. 9.A06
