The Nuggets project (http://www.ist-nuggets.tv ) is a European Project researching the use of MXF files on IT networks allowing remote control of cameras in a live production environment. The project partners (Thomson Grass Valley, ZDF, Snell & Wiicox, T-Systems, Enertec, INESC Porto) are creating a LAN / WAN based workflow which will be demonstrated in 2004. This paper will outline many of the issues discovered in the process of moving from a traditional tape / SDI point-to-point environment to a server / file interchange environment. Details of the proposed network functionality will be given in order to generate audience discussion of the requirements of a file interchange based workflow.
