DIGITAL EXTRA - Digital Delivery: Traditional vs. OTT Distribution Tech

On a special Digital Extra episode of The SVG Podcast, we bring you a roundtable discussion with four industry experts on the unique challenges in delivering live streaming video content.

More eyeballs are shifting from linear TV to streaming outlets but the expectations of the quality of that video remains the same. What makes it so difficult to meet those expectations and what progress does the industry still need to make to bring an experience that is free of latency and buffering?

We tackle that topic with four gentlemen on the show today: Phil Green, SVP, Partnership Development for Endeavor Streaming; Jason Justman, Distinguished Engineer for Sinclair Broadcast Services; Abe Zerbeb, CEO of TAG Video Systems; and Ben Ziskind, Executive Director of Live Video Platform for Fox.

This conversation, which is moderated by SVG Director of Digital Brandon Costa, comes from the annual SVG TranSPORT conference which was held on October 15 in New York City.

The SVG Podcast is for the sports-video–production professional looking to keep up with the latest in sports-video–production operations and technology. The program features interviews with some of the biggest, most influential names in the sports-video business talking trends and topics that are making an impact on the industry.
