[dvblast-devel] Information request for presentations

[Andy Gatward]

Hi all,

I am going to be giving two presentations during the next 6 months on
using dvblast and vlc as open source alternatives to expensive media
ingest products for IPTV platforms.

The first presentation is on 11th November and is to the users' group of
a service called Freewire.TV, which is a UK-based IPTV service for
academia, which provides similar channel line-up to the UK's DVB-T
channels; but where the operators also permit Universities to add their
own channels and content.

The second presentation will be a bit larger and (assuming it is
accepted) will be at Networkshop 38, which is the annual gathering of UK
academia's network people, hosted by the UK's NREN.

For these presentations, I would like to get an idea of the scale of
existing deployments of DVBlast - a list of organisations using the
software and how many channels are being transmitted (including how many
DVB cards are being used and in how many servers) would be great.

I look forward to your responses.

Thanks,

Andy.
