If you are wondering what the big news and big topics will be for IBC, Sports Video Group (SVG) in a recent interview with NewTek’s Brian Olson, vice president of product management, touched on all the likely topics, both for the industry in general and for NewTek. Adoption of IP workflow for video production continues to gain steam, and no doubt there will be lots to see again at this year’s show on that front. NewTek’s royalty free NDI®, bi-directional IP technology for transport of audio, video, metadata and communications over standard networks, continues a huge lead with integration into hundreds of products in the hands of millions of users. Many other proposed solutions require expensive high-bandwidth networking infrastructure and proprietary hardware and software, or remain on the drawing board.

Epic joins the industry’s largest IP video ecosystem of products and the rapidly expanding number of companies enabling IP-based customer workflows.
