Future of TV: The Impact of Total Internet TV - Augmenting the pipes

IBC Owner & Partners Programme

Broadband networks for years have been augmented to support large-scale video delivery using Adaptive Bit Rate technologies and CDNs. We are now seeing new technologies and reworks of older technologies to go beyond ABR for the full transition. This includes Multicast ABR, Media over QUIC, and even the resurgence of Peer to Peer Technologies and new approaches like L4S.

This panel will address the key overlay network technologies that will enable video delivery to work with broadcast-level reliability and high quality of experience.
How will changing consumer behaviour affect our preparations as viewers shift away from as-live delivery toward TV everywhere and on demand?
What else does the future hold, particularly with changing consumption from big media to creator-led social content?
