Broadcast Engineering and Telephony are teaming up with NAB to highlight the latest developments in IPTV technology and applications. At NAB there will be a new conference series and super session aimed at telecommunications and wireless industry professionals, along with a new IPTV Pavilion that will showcase new IPTV products and services.
As the official media sponsors of the event, Broadcast Engineering and Telephony have put together three handy resources:
1. IPTV Pavilion Web site
For all things related to IPTV, click here. The site is dedicated to offering complete coverage of IPTV events and a wide range of editorial content about the IPTV sector.
2. IPTV Pavilion e-newsletters
Get the scoop on what’s going on in the IPTV Pavilion plus news and product announcements. Visit the NAB Pavilion microsite to read the past newsletters and check back for new issues this Thursday and then the Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday during NAB.
3. NAB Show IPTV Directory
The comprehensive guide will be distributed at the IPTV Pavilion and feature profiles of NAB Show exhibitors that serve the IPTV market, product descriptions and additional content and insight on the IPTV sector from the editors of Telephony and Broadcast Engineering. We hope the directory will provide attendees with a complete overview of the IPTV-focused exhibits and programs.
With show time just around the corner, my e-mail inbox receives a daily flood of messages from companies announcing the products that they will be showing off at NAB. Here is a sampling of the announcements I’ve receive in the last 24 hours:
AJA Video Systems will be debuting four new professional video mini-converters at NAB 2008.
EVS’s new EVS Media Importer application is directly available from the Apple Final Cut Pro File/Import menu, and its XT[2]-EditRec offers a simple, efficient VTR solution for linear editing. more…
Monday, April 7, I spoke with Simon Derry, Chief Executive of Snell and Wilcox spin-off, AmberFin. Launched this week, just in time for NAB, the new company signals a split in S&W between traditional hardware products like Alchemist and Kahuna, and software products like iCR. AmberFin‘s offering is based around the iCR software platform for mastering, QC and distribution of file-based content. more…
Convention time is when many companies vie for headline space by announcing partnerships, outright company buys, acquisitions, key trade deals, personnel changes and other business arrangements. Given the number deals that seem to occur around NAB, one might consider the convention as “Let‘s Make a Deal” time.
Think about some of the recent deals in our industry. Thomson buys Grass Valley and everyone begins speaking French. Press releases are now issued with values in euros, not dollars. more…

It‘s Monday night and, besides plowing through Neil Young‘s exhaustive biography, I ain‘t doin‘ a whole lot. But in six short days, all signs of stagnation will evaporate as … I touch down in sunny Las Vegas. No, we‘re not going to count cards under the tutelage of Kevin Spacey (based on a great book, by the way); we‘re gonna rip the lid off NAB! more…
