Show of Success!
    Mitch Jacobson Uses Pipeline to Quickly Edit Live Camera Feeds as They are Being Captured 
 

"
Without a direct-to-disk multi-cam ingest while editing system like Pipeline by Telestream, I would not have had the time to create my programs and make our quick-turnaround deadlines, period."

- Mitch Jacobson, owner and executive producer at Category-5 Entertainment

THINK EFFICIENCY! ieei.tv offers Telestream's Pipeline. Pipeline is a real-time video capture device for moving SDI video and audio in and out of file-based workflows. Now you can do multi camera capture and multi ingest without the need for expensive Edit Bays. Think about it, you can have your junior editors capturing hours of footage using Pipeline. The media is stored on the Apace vStor. The junior editor can then prep the media for the Sr. Editor. Now the Sr. Editor can assemble the project from his own Edit bay from day 1. Enable your Sr. Editors to actually spend time on the story telling and not ingest. Again, workflow that saves you time and money.

CLICK HERE to discover how renowned producer and editor, Mitch Jacobson, used Pipeline to quickly capture, digitize and edit multiple camera feeds during time-critical live events for Elton John and Guitar Hero Aerosmith. Multiple cameras and a line cut were simultaneously captured through two Multi-channel Pipeline systems synched together with matching timecode.
 

It's TV Show Time!
    Television Viewing at All-Time High 
 

"
A Hulu.com ad with Alec Baldwin, shown here in a "30 Rock" episode, pokes fun at TV viewing. The average American watches more than 151 hours of TV a month, a report says.

Nielsen's 'Three Screen Report' for the fourth quarter says the average American now watches more than 151 hours of TV a month.

The human race seems to be falling for the space aliens' devious scheme: We're watching more television than ever, according to a report released Monday. If you've seen that Hulu.com commercial starring Alec Baldwin, you know that TV is a plot devised by aliens to turn our brains into mush so they can scoop them out and eat them. Computers, the ad says, are making our brains even mushier by giving us more places to watch TV. The Nielsen Co.'s "Three Screen Report" -- referring to televisions, computers and cellphones -- for the fourth quarter said the average American now watches more than 151 hours of TV a month. That's about five hours a day and an all-time high, up 3.6% from the 145 or so hours Americans reportedly watched in the same period last year.

Television executives (and space aliens) have the recession and the heightened interest in election coverage to thank for the increase in TV watching. People are staying in and watching the boob tube rather than spending money outside the house. "The timing of a lot of things has converged, what with the winter coming on, the darker nights, less money to go around and people entertaining at home more," said Susan Bandura, director of strategy at San Francisco advertising agency Hoffman/Lewis. Also contributing to the increase are the steady growth in TV programming and the number of TVs in households, Nielsen spokesman Gary Holmes said. The average U.S. household now contains more televisions than people, which means that family members or roommates can watch their favorite shows alone. "Everyone has their own niche show they want to watch," he said.

More Americans also are watching time-shifted television via TiVo and other digital video recorders. About 29% of households have DVRs, Holmes said, which let them record programs that air simultaneously. The amount of time spent watching time-shifted television was up 33% from last year, to seven hours and 11 minutes. Newfangled distribution methods are adding to the total: an extra three hours on the Internet for people who watch online video, and four hours on cellphones for those who watch mobile video, the report said. It's not just the kids firing up their computers to check out shows. Adults ages 18 to 24 spend five hours watching video online, while 25- to 34-year-olds spend just over four hours. Those ages 35 to 44 and 45 to 54 spend three hours, 20 minutes and two hours, 34 minutes, respectively.

And on the Web, work time is still prime time. About 65% of online video viewers stream content between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays. Internet usage overall grew 3.6% from the same time a year ago, to 27 hours a month. The amount of time spent watching traditional TV increases with age. Teenagers (12 to 17) spend 103 hours watching TV a month, whereas senior citizens (65 and older) spend 207 hours. That's about seven hours a day -- enough for two baseball games. One of the biggest surprises in the report: Mobile video grew 9% from the previous quarter. Teens watch about 6 1/2 hours of video on a mobile phone per month, as opposed to the nearly three hours that adults ages 18 to 24 watch. That raises the question: Does watching TV on phones still turn brains to mush suitable for a hungry alien?

"The vStor has saved us hundreds of hours of time over the last year in productivity gains and has so simplified the entire workflow process, from ingest to backup. I can't say enough good things about our experience and the product itself. It just plain works... and it does what everyone claims, which in this industry, is often saying a lot."
