I posted a suggestion about doing backstage stuff for the upcoming Freesat project, presumably using MHEG5. I quite like the idea of using the "opportunistic data" facility - bandwidth that becomes usable in a "lumpy" way due to the way MPEG2/MPEG4 works. If the picture becomes static, there can be a lot of capacity free for that moment, when motion or edits occur, the capacity reduces to zero. My suggestion is to use this as a "slow backchannel" to feed the BBC's vod/podcasts to Freesat boxes that have a hard drive. Is this a practicable thing that I could sort when I'm not at work? Hope this is helpful Brian
