NBC Sports goes Silverlight for HD

NBC Sports has announced it will be moving all its HD video-streaming feeds to the latest build of Microsoft’s Silverlight, including the upcoming 2010 Winter Olympics.

The broadcaster will use Silverlight 3 across all its HD sports broadcasts, and committed to Microsoft after testing “many different technologies”, says Perkins Miller, senior vice president of Digital Media at NBC Sports, via VB.

NBC Sports used Silverlight for the stunning HD feeds of the Summer Olympics in China last year, and this year used Silverlight to stream over 35 hours of Wimbeldon tennis coverage.
