Overview
Overview
The MVS-8000A-C or MVS8000AS-C Switcher
Processor Pack is a high-performance, multi-function
processor for use in an MVS-8000A Multi Format
Switcher system. It has a wide range of application, being
usable in live production systems in studios and ENG/OB
vans as well as in postproduction editing systems.
Features
Multi format support
This unit supports both HDTV and SDTV signal formats.
Switching can be made easily from the center control panel
of the MVS-8000A system without exchanging system
boards. The wide range of supported signal formats allows
the unit to be used in many different video production
environments. The following signal formats are supported.
· SDTV formats: 480i/59.94, 576i/50
· HDTV formats: 1080i/50, 1080i/59.94, 1080i/60,
1080p/23.976, 1080p/24, 1080p/25, 1080p/29.97,
1080p/30, 720p/59.94
Highly expandable system configuration
By combining option boards, you can configure the
optimum system for your requirements, selecting the
number of inputs and outputs, and the number of M/E
banks. The system's flexibility guarantees its ability to
meet future expansion requirements.
High-performance keyers
Each M/E bank is equipped with four high-performance
keyers that provide the following standard functions.
· Ability to apply transitions to keyers independently of
the background
· Chroma key and color vector keys in each keyer
· FineKeyTM, and key borders up to 8H
· Color mixable matte generator available for both key fill
and key borders
Simultaneous output of two programs
Each M/E bank is able to handle two simultaneous
program outputs, with the ability to apply any of the four
keys to program output. This gives the system the ability
to handle a wide range of operating situations, for example
simultaneous transmission of two programs.
Powerful preview functions
The system supports simultaneous output of look-ahead
previews (next preview) and key previews, and also
transition previews.
Extended frame memory functions
· Two-input, eight-output frame memory
· Maintains all MVS-8000 frame memory functions:
freeze function, mask function, reposition function, and
image composition function
· Approximately 5.4 GByte large capacity memory
· Two frame memory option boards can be installed
(MVS-8000A only)
· Non-volatile memory region provided by flash memory
· Includes animation function
· Dedicated frame memory data LAN provided for
exchanging image files with external devices
· Interface connection for external hard disk drive
provided
Links to DME functions
By connecting the unit to an MVE-8000A or MVE-9000
DME Processor Pack with a special cable, you can apply
DME wipes and processed keys and a wide variety of other
DME functions as if they were native switcher functions.
All DME functions can be controlled from the center
control panel of the MVS-8000A system.
Backup power supply can be installed
By installing the optional HK-PSU04 Power Supply Unit,
together with the power supply unit preinstalled at the
factory, this provides a backup system. This reduces the
risk of power supply problems, and increases the reliability
of live operations.
High-performance color correction
Installation of the optional MKS-8420M board provides
high-performance, two-channel color correction
functionality.
