fifteen or thirty FPS when using Smpte recorded at thirty
FPS, twenty-five FPS when using Smpte recorded at
twenty-five FPS, and twelve or twenty-four FPS when using
Smpte recorded at twenty-four FPS. All type of Smpte
must be recorded ‘non-drop frame’ for compatibility with
the Smart Brick Brain.
Smpte is a type of time code which is prone to minor
errors. The Smart Brick Brain automatically bridges over
these until it gets a number of consecutive consistent
Smpte frames. You can set the size of this number when
configuring the Smart Brick Brain to anywhere from one
to two hundred fifty-six consecutive frames.
3) Internal Time Base: If there is no need for synchroniza-
tion to an audio or video source, you can use the crystal
controlled time base in the Smart Brick Brain to clock the
entire system. This type of show is often used for chase
sequences, test shows, when you just don’t need to syn-
chronize a show to anything else, or to keep the figures
moving between the main Smpte or LaserDisk (or DVD)
synchronized shows. Frame rates supported are:
1 FPS
2 FPS
4 FPS
5 FPS
8 FPS
10 FPS
12 FPS
15 FPS
16 FPS
20 FPS
24 FPS
25 FPS
30 FPS
