Those tickets are hot property, I'm expecting a couple people would have
taken them both off you already? 

If not I got a large waiting list of people who will.

Its a majordomo list so you may be able to remove yourself with a few emails

Email : majord...@lists.bbc.co.uk mailto:majord...@lists.bbc.co.uk

In the message put

unsubscribe backstage

or the following if you want to unsubscribe a different email account

unsubscribe backstage y...@email.com


If that doesn't work try:
unsubscribe *
unsubscribe * y...@email.com

Hopefully that unsubscribe you from all list.

RE: [backstage] Get me off this list!

2009-09-11 Thread Brendan Quinn
Ian was off hobnobbing at conferences yesterday, so I raised a call with
ops. Apparently they had issues with their email so they didn't receive
the message (irony etc).
 
I now have a call number and they're on to it. We will let you know when
we have some news.
 
Brendan (now in RD, but not officially on Backstage, I'm just helping
out :-)

Re: [backstage] BBC iPlayer - encoding from broadcast rather than master tapes

2009-09-11 Thread Frankie Roberto
Hi Ant,

Thanks for the update. I'm not sure I 100% follow, but it's good to know
that this kind of stuff is being thought about and constantly improved upon
at the BBC.

It's amazing how BBC iPlayer has become so well known and so
taken-for-granted now, that I feel compelled to complain about it not being
considered from script stage onwards... :-)

Next I'll be suggesting that directors cut down on fast pans and
low-contrast shots, in order to minimise compression-related problems...
(although these affect DTV too)

Frankie

2009/9/10 Ant Miller ant.mil...@gmail.com

 Ok, so some of you have noticed iPlayer for the iPhone is a bit
 different- this 'I think' is via an Off Air system (or was at one
 point).  Radio has a system called Coyopa that takes original content
 from the networks between the studios and final terestrial and digital
 playout, but is part ofthe same chain.  Most iPlayer stuff I think
 comes from the same chain as playout, but not the very end.  Basically
 very very little is ingested seperately from the normal playout, but
 the point of 'branching' varies from network to network, and between
 the versions of iPlayer.

 Complicated, but we do our best. And importantly it's ALWAYS evolving.
  Sometims I wish it did so a bit more publicly.

   you could even do things like cut down the amount of trailing ahead
  - which surely is less required on iPlayer where people have chosen to
  watch something specific and are in less danger of changing channel...
  (You could probably shave a good few minutes off from Dragons Den in
  this way, which trails ahead constantly in a really annoying way).
 
  Surely a bad idea, that would just make the 'BBC News at Six' just 10
  minutes long ;-)
