boroadcast ways,of digital cinemas,what satellites are using,for transmit the movies?

[Turok]

Hello!
i hope,i am right here,in this section,with my questions!
many cinemas today,change from there old big tape transmision,to direct satellite digital broardcast,of the current movies,to transmit,over satellite to the cinema,no tape on the new cinema gerneration is no more nesarsary!
my question now,where the transmit,the huge data transmision,did the using maybe normal ka band freqencys up between 14,and 27 GHZ?
that are not avalible for the public!
whould be very intresting,to make test with ka band lnb,i know in usa,there are some supliers that have one,but i dont have any,iam sure,that there are more seceret transmision data,above our heads,that we cannot see,because ,we have the wrong lnb installed,on our dish!
thanks,for your input

No, they transmit the movies over fibre-optics from the U.S and other places, not satellite.

hi there!
where did you got this information?
in a german technology magazine i read a report that the will use satellites,also now i dont kow what is true..!

A few years ago, the Skynet 5 satellite was supplying companies (other than the military) with content. From memory the entertainment packages were streamed at night over non-essential service channels, using small bit rates, to be stored on a drive at the receiving end. A full movie could then be played approximately 24-36 hours later.

Today,i found this intresting report,on the german satelli line/eutelsat website!


Eutelsat and the Tübingen MOVING PICTURES pictures AG Medien AG are based in Germany, Austria and Switzerland on the three satellites Atlanticbird a digital cinema network. About this satellite network, the partners aim to provide Cinemas connected live events in high definition 2D and 3D and Digital Cinema Packages (DCPs, ie digital content). Similar agreements have already been concluded with almost 100 cinemas in the three countries, including all 27 houses of the UCI KINOWELT in Germany and Austria. Many movie theaters have been equipped and implement demonstrations with the new technology. This network is part of a European network, which expands the 3-D pioneer Eutelsat with partners including France, Italy, Poland, Benelux and operates.

In the framework of cooperation is Eutelsat provides the technology and satellite transmission capacity (70 Mbps) on the satellite at the orbital position Atlanticbird 3 5 ° West. The on-line monitoring and control of all transfers are managed centrally by the Network Operation Center of the Partners and 3D Eutelsat OpenSky pioneer. MOVING PICTURES is responsible as the local partner for the set, and for the installation, integration and maintenance of infrastructure in the cinema. In addition, the company monitors the transmissions over the Web-based solution, direct cinema, the plants subjected to daily quality control via remote access, and provides other services. This also includes a separate end-to-end solution for the distribution of digital content.

The connected cinemas are equipped of MOTION PICTURES by a special satellite equipment and a satellite dish, which is aimed at the satellite Atlanticbird third This receiver has two built-in receiver, an integrated module for decrypting the encrypted signals, a decoder for the Sensio 3D 3D Live reception, a 750 GB hard drive, and two gigabit network ports for connection to a router and a local network. This allows unencrypted and encrypted live HD content in 2D and 3D and DCPs (films, trailers, advertisements, short films supply etc.). When you live reception of the parallel operation of two transponders on one or even at different orbital positions is possible in order to have optimal bandwidth and redundancy. The DCPs will be automatically fed to error correction. Any missing data packets are supplied online. The completed packets are then partly filled with a rule over the local network to the cinema server.

In the past few days were also held in seven cinemas in Germany and Switzerland, successful testing with 3-live broadcasts of the World Cup opening game, South Africa - Mexico and the German-offs against Australia. Other live World Cup games in 3D as well as live concerts in 3D are firmly planned in the coming weeks. Information, want to give the partners announced
