Scott Johnson , editorial director for BYU NewsNet , is heading up the live Internet broadcast.
The real work is being done by the speakers and interpreters , Johnson said. We just take what they give us and put it on the Web..
Though Johnson makes the process sound simple , getting the general conference address broadcast over the Internet is a complicated procedure.
The speakers prepare their talks and give them at conference. While they are speaking , translators are converting them into a different language , Johnson said.
During conference , over 300 volunteers translate general conference into at least 35 languages.
It's not so much translating as it is interpreting , Johnson said.
Often the phrases or words do not directly translate into the other language , so the volunteers must interpret what the speaker is communicating , Johnson said.
These audio interpretations are broadcast live with the video via satellite by Bonneville Communications , Johnson said.
The transmissions are then pulled off the satellite broadcast through BYU campus cable channels. BYU NewsNet digitizes the signals and streams them over the Internet , Johnson said.
This year , there will be 14 languages broadcast live over the NewsNet site. It is the fifth time live audio has been transmitted , but this is the first time the audio will be accompanied by video , Johnson said.
The addition of live video broadcast is largely due to the numerous requests for it from church members worldwide. -

Scott Johnson who played long pole and goalie for St. Olaf is currently serving in Iraq. He was injured in an attack during the elections, but I understand that he is doing better.
