I find this book among the better ones, for its systematic approach and clarity of the text...The Video over IP book is highly recommended for all practising broadcast engineers. - EBU Techincal Review <br>?...here is a guide that gives you everything you need to know to find the best solution for your application.? ? SCTE, Dec. 2005 <br> Film and videomakers, networking professionals and corporate executives looking to take advantage of Web-based teleconferencing will all benefit from this revised edition of Simpson s tome, which brings his previous work up to date for an age of increased broadband usage and digital filmmaking tools and distribution. The seemingly endless variety of approaches and compression formats makes transferring video over a network seem nearly unfathomable at first, but Video Over IP is a comprehensive guide that makes video transport understandable without ignoring its complexity. - Jim Hemphill, American Cinematographer Magazine
