HD wireless to wireline – The other transcoding headache

By Doug Mohney, on September 24th, 2009

Going through the tweets and notes of last week’s HD Communications Summit / HD Comm ’09, there’s another reason why transcoding isn’t the best solution to moving between AMR-WB and G.722 — added latency.

While transcoding processes may be very fast, the process is not a non-zero one and adds some amount of latency into both [...]
