CalConnect.org continues to work towards interoperability of everything from Google's Gmail to Microsoft's Outlook and even Apple's Calendar and Mail apps.<br /><br />If we're comparing a 2011 application to today's standards, I agree that compatibility is lagging. Perhaps it's time to do a review of the NeatDesk for Mac hardware and software, to see if it works with the current standards like CalDav and CardDav. Let us know which version you're using that you have trouble with, and we will go directly to NeatCo to see whether we can review a more recent version...Braintrust Digital, Inc.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13848576557383206945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360335685873772259.post-79676829113483538562014-09-29T14:31:00.877-04:002014-09-29T14:31:00.877-04:00Thanks for the feedback, Hugo.

It's not an HLS bias any more than it's a Smooth bias, etc. Here's why:<br /><br />At the time of the white paper's writing, the HLS "Pantos Spec" (which is not a standard, since it's still in draft form this many years later) was incapable of doing what you are describing in late 2014. In other words, it could not do "late binding" and required many many permutations, which leads to combinatorial complexity.<br /><br />The reason that HLS is now capable of this "late binding" is thanks to the work done by the MPEG DASH committee, as well as a few of its members including Adobe, Apple, and Microsoft. The work was based on the concept of "late binding" for fragmented MP4, which is what everyone in the market uses besides Apple. <br /><br />The side benefit of it all was that Apple, since it controls the Pantos Spec (and HLS as a whole), was able to implement late binding into HLS. In other words, the standards committee work forced a non-standard (albeit perhaps defacto "standard") in to a position where it needed to respond to the marketplace.<br /><br />Do I personally think fMP4 is a much more elegant solution than HLS? If HLS continues to rely on MPEG-2 Transport Stream (M2TS) then the answer continues to be yes. It's not a bias, it's an opinion, and yet it's not inaccurate at all...<br /><br />TimBraintrust Digital, Inc.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13848576557383206945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360335685873772259.post-40386376417039717292014-08-12T02:18:10.842-04:002014-08-12T02:18:10.842-04:00The white paper linked in the first sentence of th...The white paper linked in the first sentence of the post is full of false statements and exudes a clear anti-HLS bias.<br /><br />For example, on the topic of "combinatorial complexity", the white paper claims that with HLS you would need to create a muxed stream for every single possible combination of audio + video. That is patently false: HLS can just as well create individual assets with only a video track, or only an audio track, and leave it up to the manifest / client to decide on a specific combination to request and play back.<br />This means that there are not 4000 different sets of streams to manage, that there is no difference on the caching performance on edge servers, etc...<br /><br />That is just a completely false premise that flows through the entire white paper and in your blog post.<br /><br />I guess it's unsurprising that Microsoft and Adobe would try to promote their preferred streaming solution against Apple's, but it's disappointing to see a false debate based on falsehoods rather than an analysis of the real technical merits of each solution.Hugohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10791323181993026851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360335685873772259.post-45584667045750804022014-06-18T12:51:01.643-04:002014-06-18T12:51:01.643-04:00How can you possibly say this is an acceptable sol...How can you possibly say this is an acceptable solution? The biggest email client outside of Apple Mail for Macs is Outlook. Yet, you can't synch with Outlook. Try exporting a CSV file. What does it contain? It gives you the contact's FULL name in one field and then all of the other info in the "description" field. The application can't even create a proper CSV file, even though you can clearly see all of the fields in the application. It exports the wrong data!!

While the M2TS segments are themselves compliant, the need for the m3u8 proprietary manifest keeps it from being implemented in a traditional M2TS broadcast environment. <br /><br />HDS and Smooth Streaming are also proprietary, at least for the next bit until DASH is ratified; like Apple, the Adobe solution has been a de facto standard (read, proprietary). Microsoft's Smooth Streaming is a bit further along the proprietary-standards continuum. <br /><br />Both HDS and Smooth Streaming use the standard ISO container identified in parts 12 and 14 (MP4) and, while both approach the segmenting differently, they use the same time-code / time stamping approach that's made its way into DASH (and which HLS is capable of, too). Smooth even uses the ISMV container. <br /><br />In the end, the reason for calling out the proprietary nature of HLS is to point out that DASH has room in it for M2TS, just not with the proprietary baggage that Apple has added on to its flavor of M2TS.<br /><br />Make sense? <br /><br />Not everyone agrees with me, including a good friend and colleague, Jan Ozer, as noted in his StreamingLearningCenter blog post (http://streaminglearningcenter.com/blogs/apple-to-adobe--microsoft-with-friends-like-you-who-needs-enemies.html) but I think we're way overdue for a move from proprietary to standards-based adaptive streaming over HTTP.Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00466365701507048437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360335685873772259.post-73907077963543106702011-12-06T22:09:40.547-05:002011-12-06T22:09:40.547-05:00Steve I wouldn't worry too much, there are som...Steve I wouldn't worry too much, there are some quite good existing methods to stream video online, DASH is just a potential next one hence it being at this early stage.<br /><br />One thing that jumped out at me though Tim, was your continuous referring to HLS as "proprietary". What about it is proprietary?<br />Seems blatantly obvious to me this is part of the overall goal of the paper, to discredit HLS in favour of Adobe and Microsoft approaches (which IMO are much more deserving of the label "proprietary"; where are the open-source solutions for them?). Anyway, assuming DASH actually is well-done, and is an open standard, it seems to be shaping up well, certainly one to keep an eye on.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13513938527242537647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360335685873772259.post-68742082978867718052011-12-01T05:44:17.805-05:002011-12-01T05:44:17.805-05:00It's appears to be worst than I thought.
