Re: Internet Monitoring of Remote Shoot ???

OK fair.

However, if you're assessing technical standards of video origination remotely - I think my base opinion that there's no good "real time" way to do that at 3000 miles distant stands. iChat won't do it since the compression and delivery throughput will rob your signal of a lot of the elements I'd want to assess if it was me.

You could conceivably have them capture, process and ftp stills, but again, I think that will screw up the workflow unacceptably.

So unless you want to book some satellite time or have a T1 line at both locations, everything I can figure requires so much delay it would be problematic for checking full-frame video of a real-time event.

Maybe someone else here does this kind of thing more regularly - and knows a way - but outside of buying satellite uplink time - I don't.

My 2 cents, anyway.

YMMV.
