Description of Network Still and Clip Server
S1-016-250-P
100 hours of clip storage at 12 Mb/s MPEG-2
compression for PAL standard
The following features are included in all of the above:
• Virtually unlimited still storage, incorporating both key and fill
• Video animation playout with synchronized key and fill
• Animated logo playout with synchronized key and fill
• 2 dedicated playout channels
• 1 record/play channel for live capture and/or additional playout
• Ethernet connectivity allowing drag and drop of stills and clips over a network
• Included Synergy Video Server Control Interface
This option is the result of a collaborative effort between 360 Systems and Ross Video to
provide a comprehensive networkable, high storage, clip and still store system solution.
Note that S1-063: Video Server Control is included with this option and does not need to
be purchased separately. Any number of control panel ports are now activated to control
this and any other video server that can be controlled using VDCP (Harris/Louth)
Protocol.
Unlike other systems on the market, this solution allows totally synchronized key and fill
playout of clips, animations, and stills. Add the ability to drop in graphics and
animations over a network using simple MPEG or Targa files, and this becomes an
extremely practical and attractive package.
$1 Conversion Frame S1-023A
(DFR-8110A, includes One Power Supply)
Conversion Frame S1-023A-C
(DFR-8110A-C, as above with Cooling Fan Unit in Door)
All switcher inputs and outputs are 10-bit 4:2:2 serial digital including the system reference.
Signal sources of other video formats must be converted to serial digital. Ross Video chose
to do this conversion externally to ensure that the very latest conversion technology and
most competitive pricing is available to our customers. An added bonus of external
conversion is the ability to use those converters elsewhere in your facility as you eventually
upgrade your switcher sources to serial digital.
Ross Video is known as a world-class and competitive supplier of encoders, decoders, A-Ds,
and D-As. In order to encourage you to purchase the entire system from Ross, sets of
conversion rack frames and power supplies can be purchased for the nominal price of $1
US each (cooling fan unit extra) according to the following conditions:
• The order for conversion frames is made at the same time as the order for the switcher.
• The number of frames covered is equal to the number of converters ordered, divided
by 10, with all fractions rounded up (i.e., 1 converter = 1 frame, 9 converters = 1
frame, 15 converters = 2 frames, etc.).
