Tektronix has announced its new WVR7100 rasterizer.
V1.5 software incorporates a new DSP redundancy system for self-healing capabilities a new remote bay option that allows the console processing to be split across two control surfaces, providing additional flexibility in situations with restricted space or where two distinct control sections are required and enhanced networking and integration capability, including third-party router integration. Solid State Logic has developed new software upgrades for its C100 digital broadcast console. > For more… Solid State LogicUpgrades To C100 It features 48kHz, 16-bit, 4-channel digital audio and optional analog and SDI inputs and outputs and can record on medium or large DVCPRO cassettes with a maximum record time of 184 minutes (92 minutes in DVCPRO50). It is one of the first VTRs below $7,000 to facilitate 4:2:2-quality video transfers at 50Mbps over IEEE-1394 to nonlinear editing systems. Panasonic has introduced the AJ-SD93, a multi-format digital VTR suitable for standard definition IEEE-1394-based editing applications. In addition, for a limited time, customers purchasing the DM-JV600U will receive the 4:2:2 upgrade, a $5,000 value, at no additional charge. 4:2:2 sampling provides more color information with greater color accuracy and intensity in the video signal. JVC Professional Products is delivering its DM-JV600U high definition MPEG-2 encoder to the market with an optional 4:2:2 color sampling upgrade.

Based on RocketDelivery and RocketServer technology, it features a choice of two Ethernet-connected server appliances, the Digidesign Serv|LT, which suits small- to medium-sized facilities and stores 20 pending deliveries (up to 80GB total), and the Digidesign Serv|GT, which has higher data throughput and can store an unlimited number of deliveries (up to 500GB total). The chassis is 4RU with a rack depth of 7.2 inches and weighs approximately eight pounds.ĭigidesign has announced DigiDelivery, a digital file delivery application. The switcher’s engine is a single Xilinx Virtex-II Pro, which is feature driven through proprietary software developed by Echolab. At IBC2004, Echolab unveiled the Nova1700 digital video switcher, one of the world’s first broadcast-standard switchers to have its base platform developed primarily around single chip technology.
