MillimeterDVS Introduces Pronto2K.2 and ProntoHD.2 Disk Recorders
Apr 5, 2006 2:37 PM
Digital Video Systems adds two additional systems to its product line-up. The disk recorders Pronto2K.2 and ProntoHD.2 will complement the model range of the Pronto2K and ProntoHD. For these new products, DVS developed a special video board enabling a number of new features, including full autoconforming with transitions.
The current disk recorders Pronto2K and ProntoHD allow instant access to uncompressed 2K, HD and SD data thanks to the NT file system. On top of these features, the new Pronto2K.2 and ProntoHD offer additional conforming with transitions. The software handles the corresponding rendering so that in addition to hard cuts, transitions are supported as well. The new chassis makes further configurations with enhanced storage capacities possible.
The new disk recorders set standards by their additional format options. The Pronto2K.2 has been optimized for operation in the area of Digital Intermediate. The disk recorder is equipped with a dual-link HD-SDI interface and supports SD, HD, HSDL as well as 2K in 8-, 10- or 12-bit in RGB and YUV. The ProntoHD.2 is best suited for presentations and HD production work. The single-link HD-SDI interface effortlessly handles 8-bit or 10-bit playout and capture of SD and HD.
The new recorders offer many benefits: DVS is able to offer favorable pricing by using standard industry components. Redundant power supplies reduce the chance of a breakdown of the disk recorders. So alongside CLIPSTER, another DVS product now supports turnkey conforming.
