Another wheeze, this time using the Slingbox software, to *charge* for the BBC and other broadcasters online. http://www.uktv2c.com/ Seems to be a server centre with some slingboxes. £200 + £60pm to connect it to a Freeview box, £460+ £60pm+package fees to connect it to a Sky box! But cruder than zattoo, but my question is either or both legal? -- Brian Butterworth

RE: [backstage] How legal is ... uktv2c.com
It just don't sound right when you read that website. You know when the copy writing just makes a company sound really dodgy/sus . Because of the one to one connection offered by the Sling Box this service is not in any contradiction to any of the existing viewing laws in the UK. You may have seen similar services advertised, we are aware just as you are that they do not work, that is why our prices are more realistic as we have to provide you with the very best technology to ensure the very best picture quality. Sounds like a little kids done the copy. And what sort of name is UK TV 2 C anyway. Any company that can't spell 'see' correctly, or uses a Z at the end of it's name to try and sound cool, I steer well away from. =) Gav Gavin Pearce | Junior Web Developer | TBS The Columbia Centre, Market Street, Bracknell, RG12 1JG, United Kingdom Direct: +44 (0) 1344 403488 | Office: +44 (0) 1344 306011 | Fax: +44 (0) 1344 427138 MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Yahoo: pearce.gavin | Skype: tbs.gavin www.tbs.uk.com http://www.tbs.uk.com/ http://www.tbs.uk.com/ TBS is a trading name of Technology Services International Limited.

RE: [backstage] More good news .. BBC to build web page for every TV show, says Jana Bennett
As I don't think anyone has specifically said yet, there was some actual news in Ms Bennett's announcement last week: the plan to merge /programmes and the Infax catalogue (the now-defunct catalogue.bbc.co.uk). This means that detailed information about every show we've ever broadcast will be available through the lovely /programmes interface, with all the cast-lists, schedule information, and billing info (actually much better descriptions than the listings from the radio times, though it would be nice if they were included as well...) Hope that helps to clear up those nasty coughs! Brendan.

[backstage] Nabaztags and BBC Radio...
Just wondering, does anyone here have a Nabaztag, and have they managed to get it broadcasting streams from BBC Radio, eg Radio 1 or 6 Music? Andrew, thinking of shopping for one... (this is NOT a BBC endorsement of a French product, needless to say!)

Andrew, thinking of shopping for one... (this is NOT a BBC endorsement of a French product, needless to say!) I've got one a Nabaztag, but until BBC provide MP3 streams i've got no chance of getting it to work. Any chance something might be announced before this weekend as i could bring it along and get it working. Adam
Re: [backstage] Nabaztags and BBC Radio...
I have a first-generation one, and when it works, it tells us the local weather at breakfast time and blinks meaningfully (e.g. consecutive blue dots=rain AND wind). I say when it works, because their server reliability is awful, even for the clock which is often off the hour or is not announced at all. It's amusing, but I wouldn't count on it for anything serious such as playback of phone messages. To my knowledge the first gen Nabaztag cannot stream audio continuously, I think there is a 45- or 60-second limit. It is also WEP only :-( The new one has a mic, handles WPA and I believe can stream audio. I saw a demonstration on French TV, parents had recorded their voices as MP3s and taped RFID chips in their kid's books, if the kid got close enough to the rabbit it would recite the book. They publish an API. hope this helps Sean - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group. To unsubscribe, please visit http://backstage.bbc.co.uk/archives/2005/01/mailing_list.html.

RE: [backstage] Nabaztags and BBC Radio...
I have one sat next to my desk now as it happens (actually a Nabaztagtag), although ours is used mainly to announce problems picked up by our Nagios system. It has been though a really bad period of reliability earlier in the year, sometimes spending days unable to contact the Nabaztag server. However the service has been much better in recent weeks and the bunny has starting waving its ears before we get the SMS in some cases. I suspect RM and WMA streams are beyond it though. One of our partners rebroadcasts a syndicated World Service schedule using mp3 over Shoutcast so this should work if you substitute your serial (MAC address) and API token (obtainable from the My Nabaztag portal): http://api.nabaztag.com/vl/FR/api_stream.jsp?token=TOKENsn=SERIALurlLi st=http://vprbbc.streamguys.net:80 And before anyone asks: We are also looking into alternative formats and distribution methods over here at the World Service, in the same way that James and his colleagues at AMI are looking at alternative formats to the current Real and Windows offerings. MP3 or AAC over Shoutcast are on the list of technologies we are considering, but we are a long way from making any decisions on whether they are appropriate to develop into a full service yet. -- Gareth Davis | Production Systems Specialist World Service Future Media, Digital Delivery Team - Part of BBC Global News Division * http://www.bbcworldservice.com/ http://www.bbcworldservice.com/ * 702NE Bush House, Strand, London, WC2B 4PH From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Andrew Wong Sent: 16 June 2008 15:09 To: backstage@lists.bbc.co.uk Subject: [backstage] Nabaztags and BBC Radio...

Yep. It's in BH now. I saw it last week, warming up one of the apparatus rooms. And it's even working. Hopefully we'll switch stuff on within the next month. Some niggles to sort out still though. 2. Flash streaming just works for most people, and as the TV iPlayer has shown, a tremendously popular way of consuming content. Not on mobiles. How about an Ogg stream with Cortado[1] for mobiles (or other people who dislike Flash). Agreed. We have plans on mobile also, though any solution must just work. Yes, we're providing a ton of extra streams in different formats for wifi radios and the like to use; no, Ogg Vorbis is not one of them. I refer the gentleman to the answers I gave here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/radiolabs/2008/03/streaming_radio_online_your_co_1.shtml Not sure whether our streaming will work on Gnash or not, incidentally. I'd think, for a while at least, it will. 3. HTTP downloads are not possible I think the idea was to stream over HTTP. (or something that is similar enough to streaming that no one notices). RTMP or RTSP is streaming. Nobody (using Flash) will notice it's any different to any other experience they have. Again, it must just work. HTTP streaming is less good for Content Restriction And Protection. (Again, sorry we have to put crp in our streams in this way, but we do.) (Yes, the abbreviation is intentional). I'm sorry we have to use it. But we have to use it. Is there no a more open streaming protocol one could use? Again, back to the Content Restriction And Protection issue; but also coupled with the knowledge that a typical user wants something that just works. 5. A pop-up player will continue to be available in iPlayer when radio moves in. Unfortunately there is not much the BBC can really do about stay on top however. If the OS/Browser don't provide it then you're out of luck. Some OSes let any window stay on top. Yep, agreed. We can't provide stay on top with anything internet, without a software product, which people don't, generally, download. (Sweeping generalisation, but my experience). If only browsers supported video[2] and audio tags, and if there was actually some base codecs defined that would work on any browser. (chicken/egg?) Ye... to a point. There are some base codecs defined that work on any browser with Flash installed (ie virtually all of them); and that's the way that the world is going. Beer, anyone? Are you buying? ;) Nope. You?
