intermediate streaming server status report…
We are experiencing some high bandwidth usage… it seems that we have to set a second streaming server for the unicast up. That makes a whole of 328 Gigabyte of outgoing traffic since we started streaming.

Scanning your GPRS/UMTS IP network for fun and profit
We are giving an overview of ip networks used for >=2.5G technologies. Our main focus is on scanning the overlaying ip network, on different Voice-over-IP filter implementations and the possibilities to circumvent them.
We want to explain the ip networks used in GPRS and UMTS cellular networks from the enduser point of view. How do they work today and what has to be done to get a normal webpage, voice-over-ip or even a video stream onto your PDA or SmartPhone.
For your private investigations inside your providers ip network we want to demonstrate you a tcp/udp port and round-trip-time based traceroute program based on the .NET compact framework. With the help of this program we want to analyse the anti voice-over-ip filters implemented by different cellular providers and show you some possibilities how to circumvent them _efficently_. So we don’t just tunnel all the traffic through a VPN. But even when these filters become more sophisticated in the future we want to present some ideas how to defeat your right to talk via voice-over-ip whereever and whenever you want to.

22c3: the on-demand era has begun – the streams are online
On-Demand streams are put online as they are available – but at least within 2 hours at the moment. So enjoy. Comments are welcome.

22c3: video and audio streaming and recording scheme
As promised yesterday here are some more information about the video and audio streaming and recording at the 22c3. First let’s start with the almost complete scheme:
What’s not in the scheme is where and how the streams are recorded:
there’s a DV tape in every camera (we’ve got 400 brand new DV tapes for that purpose here)
audio+video streams are recorded on the CCC encoding machines on their local hard drives (MPEG2 audio and MPEG4 video)
audio+video streams are record on the FeM encoding machines on their local hard drives (Windows Media Audio+Video 9)
audio-only streams are recorded on the CCC streaming servers local hard drives
Last but not least: How can you watch and hear those fantastic streams? Easy:
Two ways:
go to http://22c3.fem.tu-ilmenau.de and take a look or follow the links directly to the WMV streams:
lecture hall 1
lecture hall 2
lecture hall 3
lecture hall 4
or go to http://81.163.3.2/ and take a look or take this table:
hall | OGG/Vorbis HQ | OGG/Vorbis LQ | MP3 HQ | MP3 LQ | RTSP MP4V MPGA |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
hall 1 | link | link | link | link | Link |

inside the Phone Operation Center (POC)
Since we are kind of interested in providing a large user DECT network on the campus of our university we spoke with the Eventphone guys about their setup: and as far as we can tell it’s far more sophisticated than expected.

Well sorry that there are more pictures than text – it’s just because we have to compile all the information we got and pile it all together into a nice and well understandable text for your reading pleasure.
the trip to the 22c3, the arrival and some food.
Well here we are – packed with equipment we arrived in Berlin and successfully tested the first encoding-run for the upcoming 22c3 which starts in two days.
this text was on the equipment to discourage thieves
finally some food – well maedness had some sandwiches – but finally something hot
Since we arrived we unpacked all the equpiment and drawn-in our new “office” for the next days: the video studio – which is kind of above/around hall 1.
so here we are… on the right side you can see into hall 1 through the window.
concentrated calculating power – our four encoding machines + one fallback.
Funny thing beside that: we got our own /24 subnet here – peered with 10GE directly to the Berlin CIX. How cool is that ;)

Ever wondered about the 90 percent CPU utilisation when it’s just supposed to wait for something?
Maybe it’s the case that you find something similar like that in your code:
Well that was the part of the code that produced 90 percent CPU utilisation, doing just nothing in a little testing server I am working with at the moment…
Just by inserting a Thread.sleep(sleepTime); the utilisation drops to zero.
Sanyo XF-45 … 10.000 ANSI Lumen photon cannon.
Hrhr – MORE POWER! Today a SANYO XF-45 arrived for our testings tomorrow…
Well just remember: some days ago Samsung announced a LED projector with humongous 23 ANSI Lumen… compare that to the 10.000 of the XF-45…

4500mAh battery for the HTC Himalaya / MDA2
Mhhh… I NEED to get one of those. But $140 is quite a bit if you can get a 1200mAh battery for less than $20.
“With normal usage it was 70.5 hours real time duration before I reached the 10% minimum level at which I needed to put it back on charge, that’s a predicted total of over 75 hours duration and a Pocket Plus measured usage of almost 19 hours – Wow!”

so these next-gen consoles are all about circles? Sony vs. Microsoft
We all know the Xbox 360 Ring-of-Light green circles logo below. It’s just everywhere these days. So concentrate on the Ring-of-Light and scroll down:

So since this weekend the CES 2006 website of Sony is online. At the CES 2006 Sony is supposed to show details and in-depth information about the upcoming Playstation 3. And well the site looks more like if they have to tell us something about the Xbox 360:

Rings-of-Light?
This is quite funny – I wouldn’t bet it’s not a marketing gag but if it’s not it’s funny and stupid. Please Sony! More information on your vaporware!
