MBone feed - tunnel probably needed! Marratech arranges multicast
access through their unicast/multicast gateway.
MBone Transmission
Marratech takes care of this, except the cameras
- conference only, i.e., Wednesday morning to Friday noon
- PC and software for MBone transmission (Marratech)
- 2 cameras from SICS, Kerstis and one from ICE, one for the
presenter and one for the slides
- Video mixer??? One from the SICS Grotto, check with Adrian!!!
- Student to handle the cameras
- Audio from Grand's audio system (Mikael Bagge), 3mm stereo plug
- Recording of the MBone session for the UC Santa Barbara archive.
Done on pao? Does this work if the multicast is unicast to the
Marratech gateway?
