It is essentially the same problem. A sports bar may have some tvs hooked up via Comcast and some via DirectTV with noticeably different physical layer lengths.

Additionally, the modern OTT services resemble personal devices and trade synchronicity for scalability.
- culturestate 7y agoThat makes sense. Assuming a bar probably maintains multiple subscriptions because they need access to both local and national broadcasts, I wonder if there's space to build a platform designed specifically to aggregate video content across providers and distribute it to commercial customers. I'm imagining an OTT service that specifically bids for (or sublicenses) public performance rights for e.g. sports and sells only to public venues, with hardware designed for this purpose. Thinking about it, this seems like the kind of thing that probably already exists in some specific niche.
