4K Video over SMPTE 2022-5/6 Workflows
The next generation of live television is here! Unfortunately, the necessary bandwidth for UHDTV resolution video and higher frame rates for live uncompressed video transport is not. Uncompressed 4K video at 60fps 4:2:2 requires 12Gbps and even more for 4:4:4, which causes a problem for video transport across 10Gbps Ethernet networks. “Lightly compressed” 4K is needed to fit in a single 10GE cable. For the industry's existing and deployed infrastructure, the compression has to be capable of leveraging already deployed SMPTE 2022 5/6 equipment. Visually lossless compression for a single 4K stream over a 10GE link is also ideal. This paper explores the issues described and suggests the technologies required to fix the problem.
