What the thread found

• Several HD wireless video transmitter options exist with different trade-offs between size, cost, reliability, and broadcast compatibility.
• Broadcast-grade systems like Visilink and Gigawave offer the highest quality but cost around 70,000 dollars, while consumer and prosumer options range from a few thousand to 8,000 dollars.
• Transmission distance, obstacle penetration, latency, encryption, and connector type (HDMI versus HD SDI) should guide system selection based on specific production needs.
• The Boxx Meridian is expensive but offers strong reception and reliable performance even indoors.
• Some systems require additional converters or external equipment to achieve desired specifications.

Depends on

• Discussion occurred in 2012, so some systems mentioned were still in testing or have since evolved.
• No systematic testing or comparative measurements of latency or range were provided across systems.
• Participants expressed personal preferences without controlled evaluation.
• The thread notes many existing discussions on this topic but does not synthesize findings from those.
• High-end broadcast systems pricing was mentioned anecdotally rather than formally compared.
