The latest edition of our tech-i magazine focuses on seeking higher value for production, especially in 4k and UHD. Our colleague, Adi Kouadio (EBU) walks us through his experiences helping to deliver the first 4k/UHD-1 worldwide feed at the FIFA World Cup 2014 in Brazil and Pere Vila (RTVE) provides insight into the pioneer transmission and reception of 4k UHD content using HEVC/50p and DVB-T2 in Spain.

We also find out more about the migration from DVB-T to DVB-T2 in Germany from Echard Matzel (ZDF) and the EBU Beyond HD group from Yvonne Thomas (EBU).

At the Technical Assembly in Prague, in June, a new Technical Committee and Chair were elected. Find out more about the new committee and it's Members in the Technical Assembly event report.  In his opinion piece, ‘If internet supersedes broadcasting…?’ David Wood (EBU) examines the possibility that that broadcasting will be replaced by internet.

Our Member profile in this edition comes from Gino Alberico, Head of study and research at RAI R&D. He shares with us more information about RAI and some of the important challenges facing EBU Members today.
