AV SuperFriends: Off the Rails - You may want to consider going home for the day
Recorded January 24, 2025 We’re joined by Colin Birney who highlights how MSPs operate as a tier-two support system, providing expertise and assistance for institutions that may not have the resources to manage their AV systems effectively. This model allows for a more streamlined approach to troubleshooting and ensures that educational institutions can focus on their primary mission: teaching and learning. The discussion also touches on the often amusing colloquial names given to various campus spaces. We all recount our experiences with confusing room names that can lead to miscommunication and frustration. With so many rooms named after donors or faculty members, it’s easy to see how someone might struggle to locate the “Mitchell Room” when their ticket only says “Room 101.” All this and the news, too!

From miswired speaker systems to network multicast nightmares, this episode is a confessional of epic proportions. We also tackle a listener email about tuning audio in a room, offering practical advice on how to make classrooms sound better using DSPs like QSC’s Q-SYS.

AV SuperFriends: Off the Rails - I've already failed multiple times
Recorded August 9, 2024 Chris is confused about what day it is so he has to intro the show twice. Then once we’ve figure that out, we’re joined by Robert Durbin and Travis Cawthorne from Kramer AV to talk about their recent acquisition of ZeeVee. Next, we discuss the concept of streamlining classroom AV systems to just a PC or laptop… or both. Why does anyone need more than that anyway? All your content is starting there, so get rid of the rest of your stuff! It’s contentious, but surely a glimpse of the future. Finally, there’s a technology arms race for building out spaces on campus with student recruiting specifically in mind. Besides, those campus tours never go look at our oldest and worst spaces, do they?

AV SuperFriends: On Topic - Unique Boutique
Recorded (and streamed live) on July 26, 2024 No topic provided again this month, so we decided to look at the numbers for display technologies. Where does it make sense to consider LCDs vs. projectors vs. LEDs? Chris even built a spreadsheet of rough numbers because he’s a nerd that way. Are LEDs becoming cheap enough to replace projectors? Is anyone building LCD videowalls these days? What are you installing on your campus?

AV SuperFriends: Off the Rails - Me and You Said the Same Thing
Recorded July 19, 2024 It’s the summer doldrums, so instead of news, Marc shares the AV experiences from his summer vacation to the House of Mouse. Oddly painted speakers, immersion breaking VR, and RF-beacon driven proximity audio broadcasts are just some of the highlights. Then we respond to a Reddit forum post about how university AV teams are structured. Everyone is a bit different and we didn’t even get to full division organization charts. Some of us have partner teams on campus, some do it all, and some even do other teams’ jobs for them. How are you structured? Finally, who is buying all these capturing-recording-streaming boxes and why? This concept breaks Chris’s brain and causes him to lose sleep.

AV SuperFriends: Off the Rails - Shelf of 1000 Holes
Recorded July 12, 2024 We’re bookending the show with SMPTE 2110 stories, so we start with discussion of Cisco hosting a webinar on Precision Time Protocol (PTP). If you don’t know what all that is, it’s potentially huge news for AVoIP to play nice on enterprise networks from the sleepy giant of networking. Then we discuss the non-electronic products we prefer for building equipment racks, mounting projectors, hiding gear behind display monitors, and working with conference tables. We’re pretty well all over the place, but we all agree that ADA compliance and keeping things clean go hand-in-hand. Finally, we consider an odd product from Blackmagic Design. This could be the greatest thing we didn’t see at InfoComm or the worst thing ever created. And it’s SMPTE 2110 native! Cisco webinar: Blackmagic Ethernet switch: Alternate show titles: Whatever the other acronyms are It nerdily excited me It’s going to have to trickle down a lot They have to do things and figure it out Keeps hands out of places It’s a 15 lumen projector Bop-it!

AV SuperFriends: On Topic - Frozen Concentrated Orange Juice
Recorded June 26, 2024 No topic was provided this month, so instead we’re going to make this our summer Fourth of July special. So, get out your flags, wake up the kids for the renewal of their annual loyalty oath, fire up the grills, smoker, or barbecue, light off the sparklers and firecrackers, and let’s celebrate America by blowing up a small part of it. We’ve each collected our favorite AV products, solutions, services, or approaches that we’d like to blow up. Larry doesn’t like formal instructor stations in conference rooms, Marc hates giant card frames, Chris despises giant amplifiers powering only a few loudspeakers, Justin is not a fan of professional PTZ cameras with only USB output, and Jamie detests displays with onboard operating systems. Happy Fourth of July everyone!

AV SuperFriends: Off the Rails - This is a Multi-Dollar Operation
Recorded June 21, 2024 The AV SuperFriends have returned from InfoComm which means it’s an InfoComm recap show! Short version: there was far less “AI” braggadocio and way more cloud cloud cloud. For those of you who weren’t able to join us on our traditional Friday AM show floor tour, we review our selections from that and links are below. We also discuss some additional products and solutions that we missed and didn’t read about until the following week but wish we could have seen in person.

Recorded June 14, 2024 Larry, Justin, and Chris visit with Zach Snook from Biamp (while sitting on the most comfortable chairs on the show floor) to discuss their newest announcements and product updates, including the long-awaited analog input on the VBC conferencing bars. Jamie will be disappointed at no AVB connectivity for expansion, so he’ll have to be satisfied with LAN control and monitoring… for now!

Recorded June 14, 2024 Larry, Chris, and Justin review their thoughts from Day 2 and what they’re looking for during Day 3. There’s been more LED displays (including lots of all-in-one units) at far more reasonable prices, lots of USB-C (could it actually be an option for wide deployments in the future?), and some dude on the very top of a ladder.

Recorded June 13, 2024 (Note: Our super duper awesome recorder died right in the middle of this episode, so it cuts off abruptly; see the episode artwork. Unrelated: anyone want to buy a multichannel recorder?) Larry, Justin, and Chris invade the Computer Comforts booth to talk classroom furniture, the development process, partnerships with university customers, and even some new ideas that Chris totally invented on the spot. We also welcome by a motley crew of fellow higher ed tech managers from the adjacent HETMA booth to talk about their experiences at InfoComm thus far.

Recorded June 13, 2024 Larry, Justin, and Chris share their thoughts about Day 1 at InfoComm and trends they’re seeing at the show. AI is MIA, there’s lots of iterative software improvements to existing hardware, and be sure to stop by the Panasonic booth to see the mist display.

Recorded June 12, 2024 Even after a few false starts and a recalcitrant multi-channel recorder, we did manage to squeeze out an early morning episode before the show floor opened. Justin, Larry, and Chris talk high level trends and solutions we expect to see this week.
