Nick, This isn't on topic exactly, but: I've heard that another Big Ten school, which shall remain nameless, is feeding campus TV channels to video-over-IP. You can connect from anywhere in the world and watch the channels you could get on campus - including Big Ten Network and locally originated channels. Any thoughts of providing the MSU campus community with such a service? /rich From: MSU Network Administrators Group [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Kwiatkowski, Nicholas Sent: Friday, March 14, 2008 2:33 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [MSUNAG] HDTV / Cable Televisoin on Campus NAG List, This isn't really a data-networking thing, but I'll ping the list anyway (since we are all techie's anyway). We are in the process of upgrading the campus cable television system, and are currently broadcasting 6 Digital Channels on the campus television network. We have the Big Ten Network and WKAR in HD, and a few SD channels for people to test the quality, and ease of use of. We are broadcasting these channels in a technology called ClearQAM, which is the industry standard for non-encrypted television service. Many newer televisions have ClearQAM tuners built-in. Instructions and a survey are located at: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=TaAAnAdXi1mU3EXin40rxQ_3d_3d We would appreciate your help and opinions in testing this service! -Nick Kwiatkowski --------------------------------------------------- Nicholas Kwiatkowski Communication Systems Analyst Telecommunication Systems Department, P&E Group Michigan State University Direct: 517-432-2528 Dept / Customer Service / Trouble: 517-353-5515 E-Mail: [log in to unmask] Website: www.telecom.pp.msu.edu <http://www.telecom.pp.msu.edu/>
