IP Live Production
Over recent decades, information technology (IT) capabilities have expanded to revolutionize and deliver efficiency in every industry. However, the video content creation industry has been relatively slow to embrace and adopt IT transformation. This is because the massive amount of data in video content tends to prevent smooth transfer via Ethernet connections. But now the latest technological developments have answered this challenge, enabling the adoption of IP-based video and audio streams for use even in live production environments which demand real-time operation without delay.

Experts you can trust to transform your production.
Broadcasters and productions face the challenges of delivering more with less. Sony is making live production more agile, flexible and cost effective with our end-to-end IP Live solutions based on open standards. From optimised use of studio facilities, control rooms, Outside Broadcast vehicles to remote production and shared production with IP routing and network allocation. Sony can help customers realize the benefits of IP and drive workflow efficiency in every live production application, on any scale.
Benefit of End-to-end IP Live Production Solution
IP Live brings innovation to production workflow by dramatically improving production efficiency. Sony has been delivering the best-in-class and truly interoperable IP live production products and solutions to sports and entertainment customers for many years. By being format agnostic and SMPTE ST 2110/AMWA NMOS compliant, our IP Live Solutions can adapt to the varied demands of the market. As a result, we now have more than 100 OB vehicles and studios in operation, making us the leading provider of IP live solutions in the world. Our remote production solution, which integrates our robust portfolio IP live products with our efficient orchestration, management, and monitoring of production software, has given our customers the ability to produce very high-quality remote events while keeping their operations centralized at a NOC. This enables content creators to maximize their production efficiency and minimize cost, so they can produce many more events within the same budget. By partnering with Nevion, which has innovative and award-winning orchestration and Software Defined Network control technology, Sony is able to offer an enhanced end-to-end IP Live production solution within and across multiple locations. SDN technology enables us to provide highly scalable multi-point to multi-point connection flexibly, giving customers access to as many sources as needed, even if the available bandwidth to remote sources is limited. This makes it possible for remote productions to have the same operational capabilities as a local site. With Sony and Nevion's remote integration solution, which is backed by state-of-the-art technology, expertize and experience, we can support any project regardless of scale or size. Content creators and broadcasters can now feel confident to move forward with implementing their IP strategy and to fully realize the long term operational and financial benefits.

IP Live takes an industry-wide interoperability approach, and this has been and will continue to be driven by Sony. The company works closely with standardization committees, alliance partners, and customers. Sony ensures the standardization of IP technologies by participating in many different alliances and interop activities. Sony supports the open standard format SMPTE ST2110*¹ in the product lineup as the media transport protocol, and AMWA NMOS which ensures device discovery and registration, helping to enhance the interoperability of IP live production.

IP Live Remote Production

HDCE-TX30 and HDCE-RX30
Currently you need many people and a lot of equipment at each venue when shooting for an outside broadcast. Remote live production with the HDCE-TX30 in IP direct mode enhances your workflow flexibility and saves the cost and time of transporting equipment to all of your venues. Following a typical studio workflow, producers and directors at the broadcasting station can easily give directions to camera operators at the remote venue on a real-time basis using IP intercom technology.

HDCE-TX30

Camera system settings can be done at the venue to match the usual workflow or even from the broadcasting station side using the web menu and RCP/MSU. AMWA NMOS regulations IS-04 (Discovery & Registration) and IS-05 (Device Connection Management) are also supported as standard. If you install the dedicated optional software license, you can monitor SNMP devices and control devices using the Ember+ protocol.

Sony's IP solution supports current systems with SMPTE cables. If you update your system with the HDCE-TX30 and HDCE-RX30, the routing system between your camera and CCU will be changed to IP routing. Currently the transfer distance is determined by the performance of the SMPTE cable and transmission method. On the other hand, remote live production is available even across continents because IP technology overcomes the constraints of distance. Quick-to-configure control and monitoring devices are available with the Sony IP solution ­
Live Element Orchestrator (LEO) software ­ without any physical layout changes. You will have HDCE-RX30
centralized control of the setup and monitoring of each device and of allocation between cameras and remote controllers.
This is also available at any place where bandwidth is limited, because it supports compressed transmission via a third-party encoder and decoder. All of these IP remote live production functions are included in Sony's top-end camera system ­ these functions are not due for future release; they are already available. Sony provides an end-to-end IP remote live solution now!

PWA-LEO1 - Live Element Orchestrator
System orchestration and management software for IP Live production
Live Element Orchestrator is a strong orchestration software to increase the performance and utilization of resources, as well as to reduce the system downtime, further improving productivity in content production. This application provides overall system management of an IP-based production system. By supporting major industry protocols, both Sony and third-party solutions can be equally supported. Enabling resources to be shared across multiple locations, configurations to be set-up centrally and operations across all equipment to be monitored, the solution optimizes system performance. Sony developed its Live Element Orchestrator in collaboration with Skyline Communications (Belgium) adopting the company's DataMiner, an end-to-end management and orchestration solution, as a core technology. DataMiner has been adopted by numerous media companies and organizations globally and is yet another collaboration which will offer further value and operability to broadcasters who are investing in IP-based live production.

Key Benefits
·Centralized Device Configuration & Setup e.g. 4K / HD format change, Resource re-allocation in system level
·Centralized Monitoring: Monitor the entire system regardless of location ·Multi-vendor Support: Able to support any third-party device, standard or proprietary ·Panel Operation: Easy operation from software & hardware panels ·COTS Server: Utilized with Commercial Off-The-Shelf hardware ·Robustness: Supports redundancy and clustering configuration ·Scalable: Scalable from small system to large scaled deployment
