The Digital Production Partnership which is led the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 with representation from Channel 5, Sky and the Independent sector has released a delivery standard spec and a recomended work flow document.

It is interesting to what the delivery standards document has to say about loudness and levels.

So for now we can’t allow the peaks to go up beyond normal levels which is a shame because for some progrmmes especially LE shows with depend on significant compression to handle audience etc this will be a bit of a struggle but I suppose we are in a transition period. I do hope though that the peak level recommendations will go at some point soon.
