[AFMUG] 8k video... ouch

[Josh Reynolds]

" At 120 frames per second (UHD allows for 24, 25, 50, 60, and 120 fps), 
a raw 7680×4320 video feed clocks in at 48 gigabits per second (Gbps). 
The Super Hi-Vision spec (SMPTE 2036) supports 22.2-channel sound, too, 
which comes in at around 50Mbps. After compression (NHK has developed a 
special codec for Super Hi-Vision), the entire stream clocks in at 
around 500Mbps. To put this into perspective, a 1080p TV channel signal 
(over the air) is around 10Mbps."

First 8k video hits Youtube, although only at ~24fps.
