3.1 Deliverable Planning • January, 20th: draft Table of Content • February, 2nd: final Table Of Content • February, 27th: dead-line for each partner to submit to WP3 leader his contribution • March, 13th: diffusion for review to all involved WP3 partners and other WPs leaders of the consolidated document • March, 27th: approved consolidated document with all contributions sent to HDTVNEXT Project Manager and to all WP leaders.
3.1 Del Table of Content • Introduction : Thomson • Distribution Network • TV Channels multicast : Telefonica • VOD unicast : Thomson, Telefonica • Multicast Live Self-produced : I&IMS • Metadata transmission: Barco, UAB? • Access Network : Maxisat, Thomson, Telefonica • Home Network • Wifi : LRSM • Wimax : LRSM • PLC network - HDMI extenders : DS2&Robotiker • QoS/QoE : Barco • Conclusion: Thomson
WP5: mid-term demos (1/2) • Proposed demos by WP3 partners • Telefonica: not able to demonstrate something for March/April 2009, only a slide show of their contribution • I&IMS: first demo probably in April/May (depending on Barcelona University for Content) ??? • Maxisat: possible to re-use the result of Magellan project (light DSL network) with a demo which may be moved in France for mid-term review • DS2/Robotiker: possible to show the preliminary board, but not to demonstrate in April • LRSM: not able to demonstrate something in March/April 2009, ready for the next ITEA symposium in October 2009 • Barco: not present at the call • Thomson Grass Valley: possible to demonstrate HD CDN and VODstreaming, need more information coming from WP2 and WP4 about content format and capacity of terminals or PC emulators
WP5: mid-term demos (2/2) • Link with Use Cases? • Interactions with other WPs • WP2: VITEC, Thomson, On2 • WP4: which terminal for VOD, Pace STB or PC emulator as VLC player? • Open issues • Terminal • Content • Availability of files coming from Thomson and Vitec and On2 • Logistics • List of necessary equipments • Figure • Preliminary interoperability tests: how? When?
WP5: next demos • ITEA Symposium • Finale demos • Schedule the system integration & evaluation performed by Maxisat • Possible to start system integration & interoperability from January 2010 in a dedicated site • Certainly, 2 dedicated integration sessions
Next WP3 meetings • February, 6th at 10am • February, 24th at 10am • Meeting to schedule with PACE • Meeting to schedule with Thomson and Vitec/Thales/Trinnov
Thomson Contributions • Cluster for Content Distribution on delivery network • Ingest of profesionnal HD contents • Distribution of HD contents on different storage servers (centralized, edge, local) according to distribution policy by using SVC levels • HD VOD servers • VOD streaming sessions with HD IP STB: play, pause, stop, FFR, FFW • Inter-dependencies within WP3 partners and with other WP partners: • HD Encoders/Transcoders: WP2(VITEC & Thomson), WP3 Telefonica • WP4 - PACE STB • WP4 - PC Emulator for HD decoding (VLC Player)? • WP3 Maxisat DSL network • Involved use cases: HD VOD at Home
