Cable and Consumer Electronics Companies Reach Key Agreement on DTV Transition
Months of Talks Generate Steps to Advance Digital TV Transition, Benefit Consumers, Provide Market Certainty, and Bring New TVs to Market

Consumers will be able to buy digital TVs (DTVs) that connect to digital cable without a set-top box, and enjoy easy access to high-definition television (HDTV) services offered by cable operators, as a result of a landmak agreement entered into today by major consumer electronics companies and cable multiple system operators (MSOs).

Avid|DS HD in the Real World
Powerful editing and compositing system takes seasoned Media Composer editor back to school

Ever wonder what it's like to use the Avid|DS HD editing and compositing system on an actual project? Is it a lot like using an Avid Media Composer? Seasoned Avid Media Composer editor and DMN journalist Peter May took a fully-loaded Avid|DS high definition editing system out into the real world, putting it through a grueling, effects-intensive two-month-long HD project.

Predictions for 2003
Personal helicopters, wristwatch editing, stealth clothing? Naah.

As is the custom with lots of technology columnists, it's getting to be that time of year when we dust off the old crystal ball and offer our prognostications for the coming new year. What will happen in the world of digital video editing? I see big things on the horizon, with the economy recovering, television commercial production on an upswing and technology getting faster, cheaper and easier-to-use. It's going to be a good year, indeed! Here are my predictions for 2003.

Making the Upgrade
Is your equipment wishlist a mile long? The pros help you prioritize before you buy

Updating a production studio can be daunting, especially if you’ve got several major pieces of outdated equipment.

AG Neovo Technology’s S-19 LCD display

LCD monitor reviews are rare in these pages, primarily because the products are so numerous they have become commodities. The AG Neovo S-19, however, deserves attention for two reasons. First, you may not only be unaware of this new high-performance 19-inch LCD, you also may never have heard of its maker, AG Neovo Technology. The Taiwanese-based company is a relatively new player in the United States. It has been treading cautiously into a glutted LCD display market that is facing strong downward pricing pressures. Since its U.S. debut, AG Neovo has snagged a number of industry awards for its full range of displays. Some of the products sport unique design and performance features, which is the second reason I reviewed the S-19.
