NAB Streaming News Roundup: 4K, Video Workflows & HEVC Lead The List
I’m not at the NAB show this year, but I’ve been keeping an eye on all the news and have already seen more than 700 releases from vendors at the show. I’ve sorted through them and pulled out all the ones having to do with the streaming and online video industry and not surprisingly, 4K and video workflow are the hot topics this year, along with transcoding and HEVC.
Here’s the roundup from releases put out over the weekend and on Monday. If I didn’t include your company’s release, send me a link to it in email. Acquisition news is at the top of the list, all the others are listed in no particular order.
