One of the things that DAZN should have done - we have said it several times - is image quality.And precisely in this regard, a news has just leaked that will greatly affect a few million subscribers to DAZN: according to absolutely reliable rumors collected by us exclusively and found, there will soon be the expected qualitative improvement of the images disseminated by the broadcaster with the increase of the broadcast resolution.DAZN is preparing, in fact, to move on to "phase 2" which involves the addition of the streaming profile in Full HD resolution, which will join the others available.Until now, the best quality released by DAZN was in fact a 720p of 6.6 mbit / sec, a resolution that marked a step back from the broadcast of Serie A via satellite available until last season.If no technical problems arise, the improvement will occur in the second half of November (probably from the Serie A match day of 20-22 November, immediately after the break);but it is not ruled out that everything may be postponed to the following day, that of November 26-28.The Full HD stream will be a full 1080p, therefore better on paper than the 1080i broadcast by Sky;the bitrate should be around 8 mbit / sec and the 1080p stream will be viewed by TV or set-top-box users with a sufficiently fast connection;while those who have a connection that does not guarantee constant 8 mbit / s (therefore with a peak speed of at least double) or users connected on mobile devices, will stop at the 720p profile.The encoding will remain MPEG4 (the player used by DAZN does not support HEVC on all platforms) and 8 mbit / sec should be sufficient for good quality, as long as the encoding is done in a workmanlike manner: they are not really like that far from the 10 mibit / sec used by Prime Video to broadcast Champions League matches at 1080p.DAZN presented this initiative aimed at improving video quality in these hours at the Lega Calcio assembly and AGCOM.According to the information collected by us, the company estimates that the activation of the new 1080p profile can only lead to a moderate increase in traffic, estimated between 5 and 8%, in consideration of the fact that only a part of users will respond. to the technical conditions to receive the best quality stream.DAZN's move, which on the last day, in addition to the inevitable leopard-spot slowdowns, almost only stumbled upon a graphic with a large "X" loaded by mistake during the Inter match, is aimed at clearing the threatening clouds that had thickened on her after the first days of the championship.The critical issues of the Italian network and live streaming of Serie A all remain on the table;but certainly an improvement in quality and the move to 1080p broadcasts is a very important step: the benchmark with Prime Video would end up being less embarrassing.Copyright © 2022 DDay.it - ​​Scripta Manent publishing services srl - All rights reserved - VAT number 11967100154
