Why is the delay (ping) on professional TV video calls absurdly high?

627 views

So many times I see a guy video calling another crew across the country and it can take a solid 5-10 seconds before we hear them reply. I’ve seen kids in siberia with better ping.

They’re using a satellite. There is a delay, but it’s more reliable than an unreliable internet signal when you’re pushing hi def video out live to millions of viewers
