Panasonic gloats about Emmy for H.264 / MPEG 4-AVC work
by Darren Murph posted Aug 11th 2008 at 6:35AM
You just have to love it, don't you? In a situation that reminds us all too much of Sony's SIXAXIS Emmy fiasco (minus the fiasco), Panasonic has taken it upon itself to boast (quite heavily) about an Emmy that it's merely connected to. You see, an Emmy Engineering Award will soon be given to the Joint Video Team Standards Committee, of which Panasonic is indeed a member. But still, it's the JVT getting the Emmy here, though Panny's doing an excellent job of taking credit. It's release on the matter proclaims that it had a whole lot to do with the creation and implementation of High Profile for H.264 / MPEG-4 AVC, a technology that enables HD images in the H.264 video coding system. What's next -- Panasonic accepting the award on JVT's behalf?HDTV Listings for September 16, 2007

What we're watching: We'll keep an eye on NBC Sunday Night Football to see if we can spot any of Belichick's cameramen prowling the San Diego sideline, but the big show tonight is the 59th Primetime Emmy Awards on Fox. Here's hoping some of our favorite shows get recognized again.Our traditional high-def listings continue below.
24, My Name is Earl, other HD favorites pick up Emmys

We love HD shows that go the extra mile to take advantage of HDTVs (My Name is Earl, The Office), or just have special effects and environments that look great in HD (24, Lost). At last night's 58th Emmy Awards Lost and Grey's Anatomy were shut out but all the others listed previously took home statues, as well as other HD productions like HBO's The Sopranos and Elizabeth I. Take a look at the full list of winners, it certainly appears the critics think there are shows worth watching in HD.Emmys: no for HD but yes for live blogging!

Why the Emmys won't be broadcast in high-definition is beyond us. That's OK; HD Beat's loss is TV Squad's gain. If you hop on over to our sister blog, you can catch TV Squad's take on all of the Emmy festivities. You'll see coverage from the red carpet right on through to the final award, so sneak a peek when you have a chance.Actually, I just realized that Bob Sassone started TV Squad's coverage already, so don't delay! He wasn't even 25 minutes into his coverage and he's got Joan Rivers blowing the celeb's names. Is the adrenaline affecting Joan or were there some pre-reporting Emmy parties going on?
