@JustinWolfers @taylorswift13 far from 1 in 7 Sydneysiders as people from around the country will be trying to get tix. Plus, if some had multiple logins simultaneously then the real number is far lower. Still manic though!

New HDMI 2.1a spec update could pave the way for Dolby Vision to use standards-based transport methods instead of proprietary RGB tunnelling for the best source-managed performance. If so, that would be great news for quality and interoperability!

New "IPMX" open standard for AV-over-IP looks fantastic, albeit targeted to ProAV. It has all the hallmarks for what's really needed: support for uncompressed + multiple codecs, but importantly with a baseline codec to assure interoperability.

@ljayes Apparently not linked to SA case, hence constant talk of "missing link"

Having finished a successful 3 hour "Introduction to Smart Homes" webinar yesterday, I was reminded yet again about the potential for "Zoom fatigue." Stanford University provide four great tips for minimizing this.

@CEDIAGiles @anthonyantolino @DelosLiving @ConnectedDesign I agree, but add that a home is not comfortable unless it's safe, and comfort both contributes to, and benefits from health. It's one big loop. Then throw in presence and sustainability for good measure ;)

Australians with rooftop solar panels could soon be charged for exporting power into the grid, under proposed changes. Surely the solution is to not invert, instead store onsite (in batteries) without it going through the meter for export to the grid? https://t.co/UrtXiSSubR

Cheap, poorly regulated DC power adapters risk house-wide electronics issues at best, fires at worst. As a former manufacturer it was necessary for me to become familiar with safety regulations for PSUs. Many don't comply, yet can still be imported. Why?

CEDIA's first ever industry size and scope report for the Australia-NZ residential technology integration market is available now. This is relevant for EVERYONE in the local industry to get a bigger picture (excuse the pun)

@davepedigo Yes the past few years I've been there in Nov and catch the tail end of it. I should get there earlier!

@BigJohnnyArcher Ha! Ah gyms... I remember back in the days when they were open here.

Today CEDIA published its latest white paper: HDMI 2.1 Technology for Integrators. It's highly recommended reading, especially considering the implications on system design for variable refresh rates, link training, and compression.

I'm looking forward to this!

[BBC Research & Development @BBCRD]

At *next week's* free, 3 day audio conference, BBC sound engineer Cathy Robinson talks about her latest 3D spatial audio work, and a new project that uses our new Audio Orchestrator tool...

Extraordinary new tech demo from NVIDIA, notionally to (hugely) reduce bandwidth demands in video conferencing, but I imagine it could also be used to enhance in-game avatars to mimic user facial expressions and speech. Impressive!

@GrrrGraphics You do know the virus is in 213 countries, right?

@elizabethprata By this metric, nobody ever died of flu or AIDS. Zero.
