Jeffery Yang Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Compared with wireless video transmission in professional areas, customers usually have more choices in consumable electronics area. Different products are based on different solutions: WHDI, WIFI , WIHD etc. WHDI is no latency while is the most costly. WIHD is still having a long way to go for wide applications. WIFI technology is with great promise as almost all smart devices are supporting this standard. It is currently moving to 5Ghz standards for applications. Here is my question, if for WIFI solution, 1080/60Hz, >50M transmission for consumable applications which can replace the current most popular solution, what cost are you willing to pay? https://plus.google.com/115568999535734913007/posts/B3eHrtcdnaK Jeffery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Victor Lazaro Posted September 30, 2014 Premium Members Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Zero. But I'm willing to pay thousands if you get a long distance reliable uncompressed zero delay system with SDI pass through in a box that is usable on set. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be seeking more professional one (CVW300). It can suit your needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Victor Lazaro Posted September 30, 2014 Premium Members Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 I'm not trying to hurt anyone, I'm just saying that if a wireless device does not meet these requirements, I'm not willing to look into it for my next system. Wifi bands tend to get saturated by consumer devices so it is not an ideal solution four our needs. Wifi also usually implies a Codec involved usually H.264 which means two things. Delay and compression. I'm sure there is a market for these, but I'm not part of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For professional area, the requirement is surely different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Eric Fletcher S.O.C. Posted September 30, 2014 Premium Members Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 I've seen this movie before..... Jeffery is trying to advertise without advertising. Jeffery, what chipsets are you using? Aminom, or crystal video? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Alan Rencher Posted September 30, 2014 Premium Members Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 It will be nice once high-quality encoder systems get below 10ms. That's going to be the future of wireless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffery Yang Posted September 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 It will be nice once high-quality encoder systems get below 10ms. That's going to be the future of wireless. Based on current development, it is still very difficult to get such latency. This requires a huge investment. Our target is to walk into 30ms.

Moderators Alec Jarnagin SOC Posted September 30, 2014 Moderators Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Jeffery, we are a forum of Professional Steadicam operators that use professional gear. Think you're barking up the wrong tree here. This isn't meant to be snobby, but our livelihood depends, in part, on our tools and we work in a very demanding field. If it does not work, neither do we. Nuff said. Oh, wait… there is more. I moved this thread to the "Video Assist and Video Accessories" area cause that's where we discuss this stuff. Next time, please just take a moment and think about where your thread should go before you post in "General Discussion." Thank you. EDIT: Just saw your other thread on video transmitters (also in General Discussion) and deleted it. Redundant. I, too, think you're advertising something, but I'll let this thread continue for the moment since we have responses from known members. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Members Jarrett P. Morgan Posted September 30, 2014 Premium Members Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 http://www.vitec.com/products/encoders/portable-encoders/product/show/MGW-Sprint/ That is impressive.... Lets have someone package that with a transmitter/receiver pair. For awhile I was playing around with a consumer HDMI transmitter that encoded to H2.64. It was only about 20ms delay. Pretty transparent actually. I think it is doable, the big thing is it either has to be cheaper or farther (or both) than current zero latency transmission systems to make it a viable product (in my mind). That is assuming proper design to be used on set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffery Yang Posted October 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 http://www.vitec.com/products/encoders/portable-encoders/product/show/MGW-Sprint/ Did anyone really tested it for latency in using? We know that some products marked very low latency. For H264, 40ms is a very tough technical threshold.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Alan Rencher Posted October 1, 2014 Premium Members Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 I met with one of their sales reps. He had a device that tested latency. Their encoder tested at about 12 milliseconds (not quite at the 8 milliseconds that they advertise, but damn, 12 milliseconds is great!). We also tested an Arrow and a Tomahawk for comparison; they came in at 750 and 850 MICRO seconds, respectively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can work for 12ms, this is a great thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
