Advanced video processing automatically detects the input video format and applies high-performance scaling.
Extron Electronics has introduced the USP 507, a universal signal processor that provides video scaling, transcoding and analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog video conversion.
The USP 507 features a seven-input switcher that supports all common analog and digital video formats, from composite video to DVI, RGBHV and optional SDI/HD-SDI. Advanced video processing automatically detects the input video format and applies high-performance scaling. Two RGBHV outputs are standard, plus an Extron MTP twisted pair output that enhances integration flexibility.
In addition, optional output boards are available for scan-converted video, DVI and HD-SDI. The USP 507 is well-suited for applications that require universal compatibility to accept any input video format and produce high-quality video for display.
As media companies transition to file-based production environments, many have experienced problems translating media applications to an IP environment.
In the ever advancing world of media content delivery, MPEG over IP (MPEG/IP) has been gaining popularity for a number of reasons. MPEG/IP delivery offers lower costs, higher bandwidth, greater efficiency, and new application possibilities over the traditional methods, such as: Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) and RF networks. Along with the benefits, come a number of challenges. One of the biggest challenges is a mechanism to recover lost data in real-time. This paper will attempt to shed some light on the inner workings of the real-time data recovery mechanism: Pro-MPEG Code of Practice #3 Forward Error Correction (CoP#3 FEC). Read Now
