Dear All,

RadioDNS enhances broadcast radio with IP functionality, and RadioDNS Applications such as RadioVIS show that we can use this to give a valuable service - such as additional visual or textual information, providing more information about the audio that is being received.

Several groups have independently been thinking about how information can be provided to help synchronise applications more closely to audio.

To this end, I propose the formation of a working group, whose objective is to discover methods and practices to be used by RadioDNS applications to help synchronise applications more closely to audio.

I am happy to initiate the formation of this group and pull together current thoughts into a document for the group to take as its starting point.

I'm hoping we can get a wide range of different opinions here, as it could be very important - please reply to this thread if you would like to be involved, and whether you have any initial thoughts to start us up. Once we have a core group of participants, I'll arrange a project kickoff. For now I suggest we discuss the topic on this list.

Kind regards,

Ben Poor

Hi Ben,

we think that the topic is very interesting and worth being better analyzed.

Specially, we’re interested in synchronization with respect to the ability to record audio together with RadioVIS (images, text) and whatever multimedia or interaction object is or will be available.

 

So, we’ll be happy to be involved in the discussion and to give our contribution

In other words, +1

 

Kind regards

Paolo

Excellent news! I was hoping you would volunteer your services...

I had you in mind initially to be involved, but things stalled a little while we all busy. However, I think there is enough information to write some form of document, although I know that people have tried out initial ideas we had and found problems.

Hi Ben,

 

Yes – I think it would be extremely useful to discuss this subject with a wide group of interested parties.

 

I’d be very interested in being involved.

 

Best regards,

Robin

Great stuff Paolo - thanks for volunteering. I know you've been trying out some great things such as RadioVIS 3D so your involvement would be most appreciated.

Hello,

 

Please count EBU in.

We are planning to work on a new hybrid radio application proof of concept that could fall in this category.

 

Best Regards

 

Mathias

I've also added some publicity for this on our Twitter feed - @radiodns - in case it helps find some additional folks to take part.

Many thanks to everyone who has come forward - I'm really pleased that so many of you have shown an interest in this, and I'm gratified that we appear to have such a good spread of people over areas of expertise and geography.

If nobody has an objection, I would propose that we have our conversation on the RadioDNS Developers list - this list. I am hoping that any conclusions we come to would eventually form part of the main RadioDNS specification, and as such this seems like the natural home for it. I would suggest that the titles of any posts from group are prefixed with "RadioSYNC:" to guide people to our topics.

In terms of a timetable, I shall be writing a post next week starting things off, with a list of who is involved and a short statement of current thoughts, to stimulate discussion. I'm going to be feeding back any ideas into a document, as a way of distilling them. The document isn't meant to indicate we have reached a conclusion, but its good to have something complete to work from.

Hopefully this all seems reasonable, but let me know if have alternative suggestions.

Best regards,

Ben
