Technical Services, a Lakeside, Calif.-based systems integrator, has developed a method for electronically marking live video from multiple cameras while it is being recorded. The technique enables video capture in an edit-ready format, saving considerable time during the postproduction process.
 Laird's capdiv Direct DV Recorder is a tapeless, disk-based capture and playback deck designed to shorten the DV capture process and to make video clips instantly accessible to nonlinear edit systems. |
The system uses Laird Telemedia’s capdiv Direct DV Recorder in a system that allows operators to live-switch digital video from multiple cameras.
Laird's capdiv Direct DV Recorder is a tapeless, disk-based capture and playback deck designed to shorten the DV capture process and to make video clips instantly accessible to nonlinear edit systems. The deck records edit-ready clips directly to its integrated hard drive from any DV camcorder as footage is being shot. It then can serve as a hard disk drive or transfer-captured media at four times faster than real-time via FireWire (IEEE 1394) to NLE systems for editing as a file.
