Re: Coordinated Regional Video Archiving..
I don't know specific details since we've got some folks from Microsoft Research's NetCasting group helping us out with this.
I know that we're planning on capturing raw video from the provided feed and writing it directly to a hard drive. We've got an external capture device and a 750GB drive connected through a laptop running Windows Movie Maker or something. We've tested it and it works just fine. We're expecting to collect something on the order of 250GB of raw video -- is this unreasonable?
After the event, the MSR folks will compress it, at the very least, and maybe even parse it into individual matches. It depends a bit on their schedule of events.
