Networking context today :
Networking context :
Wide band (multi Gbit/s) research networks
RENATER, GEANT and others
Easily supports high quality videoconferencing
But in many cases the last mile problem is still here...
Increasing usage of IPv6 at least for some international events

For e-learning :
Videoconferencing and IP multicast :
Introducing high quality for video and voice
Up to now : bad or medium
Now : Mpeg4 (with 4CIF image), voice encoding with MP3 or soon with MP4 audio.
cf.: http://www.iis.fraunhofer.de/index.html
Increasing usage of IPv6 at least for some international events

For e-learning :
Technology: multicast IP
Services : audio, video, slides
News :
High quality video
Importance of IPv6
Examples : DIM (e-learning), Aristote seminars, RENATER talks ...
Typically : 10 reception sites in France, 40 to 60 remote participants.

Towards high quality video :
On RENATER and GEANT : broadcasting high quality video
Using standards, not proprietary : MPEG2 or MPEG4, 0.5 to 2 (or more) Mbit/s, multicast
DVD quality
Popular open source tool (for brodcast, live or from file, and as player) : VideoLAN
http://www.renater.fr/GC/VideoLAN/Index.htm
and www.VideoLAN.org
IPv4 and IPv6 (almost mandatory)!

Workgroup meetings and e-learning :
Videoconferencing over IP with H.323 :
Going towards high quality
(today : medium)
Difficulties :
Very costly (regardless of quality)
Security (usually blocked by firewalls ; proxies are costly and complex)
![Page 15: GIP Renater Videoconferencing over IP : High end news... and some other news J. Prévost Prevost@Renater.fr Updated : June 2, 2004.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/5697bf8a1a28abf838c8ae17/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Workgroup meetings and e-learning :
With up-to-date dedicated equipments (terminal equipments, MCUs) :
It works nicely over IP, and quality can be really good
Video : H.264 (with 4CIF image), equivalent (and similar) to Mpeg4
High quality voice codecs..
![Page 16: GIP Renater Videoconferencing over IP : High end news... and some other news J. Prévost Prevost@Renater.fr Updated : June 2, 2004.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/5697bf8a1a28abf838c8ae17/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Workgroup meetings and e-learning :
It works nicely !
Easy to interface with ISDN videoconferencing
![Page 17: GIP Renater Videoconferencing over IP : High end news... and some other news J. Prévost Prevost@Renater.fr Updated : June 2, 2004.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/5697bf8a1a28abf838c8ae17/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Workgroup meetings and e-learning :
How to connect to another user or to a conference with H.323 :
By connecting directly to its IP address
Most frequently used
Or by dialing its E.164 number after connecting to a local gatekeeper (which should be part of the GDS service).
Not frequently used at present : more complex at the administrator's level,
no clear benefit at the user's level : not conformant to the Internet philosophy or traditions...

H.323 : components for the future :
SIP
Replaces today's session set-up protocols.
Today : yes for voice over IP (telephony). Not yet for videoconferencing..
H.350
Interfacing with LDAPIPv6
Will be mandatory, but implementations not yet here.

VRVS
VRVS videoconferencingI do not have informations concerning :
Its future?
Does it go towards high quality ?
![Page 22: GIP Renater Videoconferencing over IP : High end news... and some other news J. Prévost Prevost@Renater.fr Updated : June 2, 2004.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/5697bf8a1a28abf838c8ae17/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Others, becoming popular :
Others :High end : quality : no
Target is low to medium
High end : number of users : yes !
Easier to use and cheap (with respect to H.323),
No security problems (or easier to solve)
Proprietary : not a real problem for users ?
Could well be predominant in the not-too-far futur !

Strategies...
Which choice for visioconferencing ?
![Page 25: GIP Renater Videoconferencing over IP : High end news... and some other news J. Prévost Prevost@Renater.fr Updated : June 2, 2004.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/5697bf8a1a28abf838c8ae17/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Which choice(s) ? Depends on : intended usage, user community ...There is NO single choice !
