I am beginning the discovery process for updating a tvclassroom, used for both live academic classes over H.323, and live hybrid academic classes over Cisco WebEx. Upgrading the video switcher and ptz cameras are planned. 4K capability used to be something years away, but is plentiful now in the market. For video over IP H.323 my codecs can handle most any resolution, but what about computer based software codecs such a WebEx, SKYPE or Zoom? Is it really practical to produce and switch a 4K video signal that gets transcoded over to USB and into a computer? Is that worth pursuing, or should I stick with HD-SDI ?
Thoughts and opinions are welcomed.
