The AIMS Roadmap for Media-over-IP Interoperability

The Alliance for IP Media Solutions (AIMS) has established a roadmap for open standards and specifications that enable interoperability in Media-over-IP networks. This presentation will provide an overview of the AIMS Roadmap and will also look at some of the latest developments from the alliance, including IPMX and the AIMS Education Initiative.

Timing & Synchronization in AES67 & ST 2110: Why PTP Is at the Heart of Your MoIP System

AES67 & SMPTE ST 2110 are based on a precise system-wide synchronization of all devices on a network. This presentation explains why PTP time has been chosen as a reference and how the necessary media clocks are generated / derived from PTP.

AES67 WAN Transport Utilizing the Cloud This presentation highlights the challenges with transporting AES67 through a public cloud infrastructure and how these can be solved along with topics for further study. This will be viewed through the lens of results from recent live demonstrations that prove it is feasible including one where audio was transported between North America and several locations in Europe. Along the way, the learnings, as well as future considerations, to enable the practical use of AES67 cloud transport in real-world applications, will be reviewed.

Telos Infinity VIP - Introducing Virtualized IP Intercom for Cloud, On Prem and Hybrid Workflows

Martin Dyster from Telos Alliance describes how the Telos Infinity matrix-less AoIP native Intercom system evolved during the pandemic from a hardware-centric traditional communications platform, into a fully virtualized software solution that maintains the same AES67 / SMPTE ST 2110-30 network backbone. The presentation describes how Infinity VIP can be deployed in the cloud or on premise and put a fully-featured comms panel in front of any member of the production team using their phone, tablet or computer, anywhere in the world. 

JT-NM Tested August 2022 Updated ST 2110 and NMOS Testing Methodologies and Results

The presentation will provide detailed explanations of the August 2022 JT-NM Tested event network and testing architectures and methodologies, as well as give an introduction to the testing results.

Virtualized Deployments and Why This Flexibility Is Key to Future Media Workflows

Historically, media and broadcast predated the IT industry and laid the foundations for satisfying the audience with high quality and high reliability. Recent technology trends for media and broadcast reverse this direction. More advantages and benefits from the IT industry are being leveraged. This presentation examines the labor savings, rapid response, and flexibility benefits of virtualization on premises, cloud and ground deployments, and how these grew out of necessity in the IT industry.

A Cloud-Ready AES67 Audio Processing Solution for Radio and Internet Streaming

Broadcasters are encountering a rapidly shifting media landscape, bringing new challenges but also providing new business opportunities through cloud-based and Internet workflows.  The necessary requirements and key technical elements for a flexible, scalable audio processing solution for on-premise or cloud deployment will be reviewed.  This will be done in context of examining a centralized, muti-channel audio processor for radio broadcast and streaming services - based on a scalable technology from Ross and leveraging audio conditioning from Orban - along with a review of a real-world deployment.  Fully AES67/ Livewire+ compatible, the platform provides a complete end-to-end broadcast solution for processing.

AES70 Control for IP Media Devices

This presentation will summarize the AES70 control architecture for media devices and describe new features in its upcoming release. As well, it will introduce available AES70 developer tools and information resources for implementers, most of which are free.

AES70 is a full-featured control and monitoring architecture for both real and virtual (i.e., cloud-based) media devices. Currently focused on audio device control and monitoring, AES70 is not itself an audio transport scheme but is designed to cooperate with and complement modern audio transport schemes such as AES67, SMPTE ST 2110-30, Dante™, and MILAN.

AES70 is a fully-engineered design intended for professional media systems. It is lightweight to implement, yet suitable for critical applications of all scales from tiny to huge. AES70 and its toolset are a ready-to-use solution for industrial-strength control and monitoring of network-based media processing hardware and software.

IPMX: Internet Protocol Media Experience

IPMX (Internet Protocol Media Experience) is based on ST 2110 and NMOS. Our presentation will cover an introduction to IPMX and its usefulness, including beneficial extensions to existing ST 2110 environments.

"Your Flight Will Be Delayed by 20 ms" - Understanding Latency in MoIP Networks

What is latency and where does it come from? Why is latency varying? What minimum and maximum latencies can be expected? This presentation will provide answers to all these questions and explains buzz words and abbreviations such as packet time, PDV, software jitter and more...

Designing with Dante and AES67/SMPTE ST 2110

Audinate will share its vision on how Dante and AES67/SMPTE ST 2110 can be used together in a modern broadcast workflow. Beginning with explanation of Dante integrations with open standards (both with and without Dante Domain Manager) will lead through audio needs such as rapid patching through the network, network security, Layer 3 traversal, and real-time fault monitoring. The presentation continues with practical structural network examples to optimize workgroup performance.

Applying NMOS to non-2110 Environments

NMOS offers some great capabilities within the 2110 world. What of this can be used across other IP and non-IP Transports? We'll explore.

Do We Really Need PTP? A Comparison of Clocking & Synchronization in Other MoIP Technologies

AES67 and SMPTE ST 2110 require PTP for proper synchronization. Sometimes, folks feel that proper PTP operation is quite difficult to achieve. Can't we use something easier? This presentation looks at how clocking & synchronization is achieved in other MoIP technologies and compares plain RTP, RAVENNA/AES67 & ST2110, AVB and IPMX.

Network Design - IP Addressing

Media over IP has been around for almost 20 years now, and during this time a number of habits have settled within the community in setting IP networks, focusing on fast setup and Plug’n’Play instead of taking the opportunity of good network design for better serviceability, stability, and security. This talk goes over the basics of IP and Layer 3 networking such as multicast and then presents the pros and cons of IP addressing techniques such as zeroconf, DHCP, and static addressing. The speaker will share personal experiences of failures that could have been avoided by a careful network design.
