===== CoIP : Labtests 2012-04-27 ===== * Setup * Lab (Caruso) * Back projection screen * Projector design's projector * 2 mic * Toshiba camera * Leif Arne's Office * Same as Caruso * Single mic * Link beetween * analog audio two ways * DVI-opticat-DVI one way * DVI-TP-DVI one way * Tests * Conduct and clap - Test 1 * Over link * 1 to 1: Good experience * Vivianne: Need to speak slower/clearer than when in same room * Torleif: On scale for 1-10: 9 ish. Camera infront of screen is disturbing (somewhat) * Sound sync test (clap + visual): no noticable delay * 1 to 3: ... * Same room * 1 to 3 - conduct clap * Leif arne: Better on link due to reference line at bottom of screen * Torleif: Focused more on hands on link, most on face when in same room * Leif arne: Small movements easiers in same room * Vivianne: More aware of choir's behaviour when in same room * 1 to 3 - clap-clap: * Vivianne: linear speedup easier then linear slowdown, more aware * Leif arne: * Conduct and clap - Test 2 * Over link * 1 -3 - conduct-clap * Vivianne: Feels more distant * 1 - 3 - clap-clap * 1 - 3 - conduct-clap no sound * 1 - 3 - clap-clap no sound * Vivianne: Feels closer then with sound * Conduct differently when no sound (says other conductors too) * same rom * 1 - 3 - clap-clap eyes closed * choir synced but lagging (Leif arne: no prediction possible) * Vivianne: stereo sound and video enables differentiating behavior of choir members * Hypoteses: Disscrapancies adds up, i.e. video link + audio link is worse than just video or just audio * Conduct and sing (ta-ta of Father Jakob) * same room 1 - 3 * over link * Difference is close to non-noticable, group is getting used to both settings * Vivianne: More difficult than clapping (due to less percurrsivness) * Seem to be a fast learning curve for all * Vivianne is used to adapting (professional) ..? * same room 1-3 Leif Arne conduction * Some imprecission * over link * Leif Arne did equally well (non-professional) i.e. same room/over link does not effect performance * Choppy/jumpy effects (i.e. due to low frame-rate) are probably difficult to compansate by conductor * Need new test-workshop when delay can be introduced (with only Torleif from choir) * Video and audio delayed differently is of interest * Test different screen-sizes * Reduce video quality if possible * Conclusion: On link quality seems good enough * Faster frame rate could still make a difference * watching recorded conductor (woman): * Leif Arne saw/was disturbed by low frame rate * Vivianne and Torlaif didn't notice * watching recorded conductor (man): * He was moving his eyes (imagening looking at choir members) * Has that significance for choir?
