- Abstract
- As the French public broadcaster and editor of 13 channels, 4 of which are high definition, France Télévisions studies Ultra-high-definition television (UHDTV)-broadcasting scenarios for its premium programs. Enhancing the sense of realness, the viewing comfort and creating an immersive experience are the quests of any incumbent broadcaster looking to embrace the future of TV. France Télévisions has undertaken experiments in UHDTV production at 60 frames/sec to evaluate future workflows and specifically to work on adapting filming methods and materials. The quality of experience was evaluated, taking into account the impact of compression on both UHDTV digital content and scanned films, with specific attention paid to noise levels. After providing an early report of available 4K/UHD cameras suitable for TV applications, the impact of compression technology on types of UHDTV content is presented, with a focus on the new High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) codec as the natural compression standard for upcoming UHDTV applications.

bio
Jérôme Viéron received a Ph.D. degree in computer science from Rennes 1 University in 1999. He joined Thomson R&D France as research engineer working on advanced video coding. He is an active contributor to standardization efforts led by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Telecommunucations Union-Standardization (ITU-T) groups. He was very active in the H264/MPEG-4 SVC standardization process. In 2007, he joined the Video Processing and Perception Lab of Technicolor R&I as senior scientist exploring new technologies for future video coding applications and standards. He joined ATEME in 2011, as advanced research manager. Viéron is in charge of French and European collaborative R&D projects and works on next generation video coding technologies. He is an active contributor to the standardization process of high efficiency video coding (HEVC) and is implied in the 4EVER (for Enhanced Video ExpeRience) consortium, which aims at researching, developing, and promoting an enhanced Television Experience, using HEVC as well as ultra-HD.Matthieu Parmentierbio
Matthieu Parmentier started his audio career recording classical music CDs. He joined France Télévisions in 1999 as a sound engineer for live programs. From 2003 to 2007, as a news reporter, he was in charge of sound recording, video editing, and outdoor satellite transmissions. Since 2008, he has been working as manager for multichannel audio and HD video development projects, also organizing conferences and professional workshops. Parmentier co-chairs the audio expert community of the European Broadcasting Union. He holds two license degrees in sound recording and video postproduction and a master's degree in audiovisual research (Toulouse University). - Copyright
