In the run-up to the latest IP Oktoberfest event, due to take place online from 28-30 September 2021, the Alliance for IP Media Solutions (AIMS) has issued a detailed primer about a new set of proposed AV-over-IP standards and specifications, collectively known as IPMX (IP Media Experience).
Across industries and around the world, standardization has been essential to the success and advance of major market sectors. From the early automotive and film industries to the personal computer, the internet, and countless other examples in modern times, standards have enabled the degree of conformity necessary to ensure consistency and interoperability.
For decades the broadcast industry relied on a standard and interoperable set of technologies for media creation and processing: SDI. People across production, post-production and transmission all used the same set of standards, which delivered the high degree of compliance and interoperability necessary to ensure that two devices equipped with SDI interfaces would work together.
The broadcast industry is migrating successfully from SDI to IP in large part due to SMPTE ST 2110; a suite of open standards that enables the use of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) IT infrastructure equipment while benefitting from the flexibility, agility, and scalability of IP Networks.
A few weeks before his untimely death on July 26, David Chiappini, executive vice president, research and development at Matrox, delivered what would turn out to be his last commentary piece for Installation, on the future of AVoIP.
As part of Installation’s recent Pro AV Tech Outlook report, the Alliance for IP Media Solutions set out the purpose of its work in defining open standards for AVoIP interoperability
A universal standard for AV-over-IP deployment could be the greatest gift the broadcast industry can give to its cousins in AV. The only issue is which one, says Paul Bray.
AIMS is hosting the virtual event in partnership with the Advanced Media Workflow Association (AMWA) and the Video Services Forum (VSF), with live daily sessions scheduled from 10:00 to 13:00 EDT (15:00 to 18:00 BST/16:00 to 19:00 CET) on each day.

The streaming market is defined by technology, but as tech advances, it becomes more and more transparent to the user as it not only better facilitates delivery of media, but also makes the user experience better.
