Vendor Lunch
As in Montgomery, the Wednesday lunch will be the opportunity for each vendor to stand up and speak for 3 minutes introducing your product and/or services to the entire conference delegation.
Show Dome Specs
Specifications for converting content to be shown in Show Dome and at Sharpe Planetarium for SEPA
Vendors paying the $175 fee and sending content for the Show Dome need to deliver it to Dave Maness by May 22nd. This should give us time to check it and correct any possible formatting errors beforehand.
Show Dome (2 channel sound only):
Resolution: 2400×2400 (2304×2304 is acceptable) Frame rates: 30fps or 60 fps
Container: MP4
Video Codec: H264 (Profile High, level 5.1, 15-20Mbps CBR) Audio Codec: AAC embedded 2 Channel L,R (256Kbps) or AC3 embedded 2 Channel (192Kbps)
Sharpe Planetarium (5.1 Sound system):
Resolution: 2400×2400 (2304×2304 is acceptable)
Container: MP4
Frame rates: 30fps (60 fps should play on dome but needs to be checked for smoothness of playback) Video Codec: H264 (Profile High, level 5.1, 15-20Mbps CBR) Audio Codec: AAC embedded (6 Channel L,R,C,Lfe,Ls,Rs 640Kbs or 2 Channel L,R 256Kbps) or AC3 embedded (6 Channel 448Kbps or 2 Channel 192Kbps)
The SMG II and 4.8K will play lots of different video formats, but limiting it to MP4 for the conference simplifies the loading and playback of all movies and eliminates the need for separate sound files.
