I don't believe I implied the Phoenix deployment used Myrio software. Sorry for any confusion. Just wanted to point out a large RBOC deployment to those non-believers.
The news about Clear Lake is exciting but certainly not new.
The company I work for Myrio has been delivering digital TV and VOD over xDSL for about 4 years.
We develop the software for the telephone company to manage all the various aspects of digital video deployment.
Much of that software has roots in open source. We have contributed several enhancements and patches to the Linux kernel and updated and improved several drivers.
There are deployments at many Independent telephone operators throughout the US. The ones I am most familiar with are:
If you are fortunate to live in one of these towns, you now have a choice for broadband services.
The largest deployment is in Phoenix operated by Qwest. Very successful.
The video technology is very similar to cable or satellite--MPEG-2. Depending on the aceess vendor and headend encoder supplier, the video is either MPEG-2/AAL5 or MPEG-2/AAL5/UDP/IP. This is a full-rate ADSL or VDSL application. Streaming MPEG-2 video over less than 2-3Mbps links, does not provide a cable quality experience--yet.
There are some excellent white papers at Videotele.com's website.
Slashdot Mirror
sounds like a problem in need of a solution.
No, no no!!! No matter who wins, we all lose. Enjoy your popcorn.
Today is Feb 1, not Jan 30. Technically Feb 1 is "around" the end of January
non sequitor. are you implying that we never hear about closed source bugs months later?
What is your evidence that the Closed Source world operates differently--oh yes, all those "patched" IIS servers.
Ignorance is bliss.
Because standards change you dolt.

Yes this all works just ask the subscribers.
Why????
You'll be healthier, happier, and have a lot more money.
Didn't you just say I should spend an extra 10% for food? If I am paying an extra 10%, how will I have more money?
As for a McDonalds Hamburger--no argument there.

Isn't saying Linux runs 20 million web servers better than NT a "n[a]rrow test"?
