  • Mute please!

    Great content and keeps you up to speed on current trends in the AV industry...when you can understand it. Clive needs a decent connection and the guests need to find somewhere other than a Starbucks to join the forum. There's a constant background stream of noise. You're AV and IT experts. I think you can handle this.

  • Broad range of topics and interesting interviews make this really compelling.

    I've worked as a museum tech and exhibition developer for a number of years.

    I initially came to this podcast for the insightful interview with John Huntington regarding the near ubiquity of network driven control systems at the student-run haunted house project he leads in New York. Nice stuff.

    I stayed after hearing the hosts interview various industry folks about the impact the economy might have on the AV and integration world.

    That kind of breadth - from technical to personal to broad i... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Is It Ever Really Just A Single Pane of Glass? | AVWeek 792
Q: So what problem are we actually solving in this, and why is there no single pane of glass?
The panel says platforms differ in how broadly they cover devices and how deeply they manage each one. They discuss combining specialized tools and suggest that AI and accessible contextual data could eventually help unify information across systems.
Is It Ever Really Just A Single Pane of Glass? | AVWeek 792
Q: Who the heck is responsible for this breach? Who is responsible for this sucker?
The panel says responsibility can span AV integrators, IT, and facilities. They argue that AV teams should secure exposed ports during installation and that facilities should maintain those protections, with physical security checks incorporated into ongoing service.
What's Holding 4K Back? | AVWeek 791
Q: Is this an area where schools with the budget can keep building a technology lead over less fortunate institutions?
The guests say advanced displays may remain out of reach for many K-12 schools, which still use aging equipment. They also question whether new classroom technology addresses how students actually consume content and whether investments can be tied to meaningful outcomes.
What's Holding 4K Back? | AVWeek 791
Q: Are cost and complexity holding back 4K production, or is it demand?
The guests say adoption depends on the application. Signal transmission and bandwidth can be bottlenecks, while consumer equipment and the ability to perceive or use higher resolution also affect demand.
Memory Prices At Breaking Point | AVWeek 790
Q: When and how should we judge the success of an AV project?
Assess success after users have adopted or rejected the room, not only at commissioning. Gather input from the people who will use the space, test real scenarios, provide clear training, and follow up after handover.
