RSG Introduces Compact SDI to 1394 Video Field Converter |
Bellingham, WA - Roland Systems Group (RSG) a leader in live video production and conversion products, today unveiled the EDIROL VC-50HD - an innovative portable bidirectional SDI to 1394 video field converter.
The VC-50HD provides bi-directional conversion between SD/HD-SDI to/from DV, HDV as well as 35Mbps and 50Mbps MPEG-2 transport stream (TS). The unit also supports lower bit rates including 8Mbps as well as 2, 9 and 12Mbps when using with SD sources – ideal for DVD, web or fixed-point observation applications.
The VC-50HD can be used standalone between video decks and PC/Macs or mounted
on the back of the EDIROL F-1 Video Field Recorder for file-based capture from SDI
cameras.
The VC-50HD offers flexible monitoring of the signal in the field using the HDMI output connected to an affordable display. Resolution types, MPEG-2 bit-rates, direction and SDI audio channel selection can be controlled with remote software via USB or dipswitches conveniently located on side of the unit.
The VC-50HD supports three different types of power supply: AC power adapter, AA
batteries, and external battery support. The built-in 8AA battery tray can supply seamless failover power should the AC power become disconnected or while changing over external battery packs. Additionally the VC-50HD has V-Mount and Gold Mount options for use with popular external batteries systems.
John Broadhead, Vice President of Technology and Communication comments, “The
VC-50HD offers a quality HD-SDI to 1394 conversion for customers using higher end SDI video cameras in the field – especially ultra-compact applications where portability is critical. Additionally the ability to capture video at your choice of bit rate up to 50mbps when married to our F-1 video field recorder opens up more opportunities for our users”.
The VC-50HD strengthens the lineup of powerful video converters from EDIROL which includes the EDIROL VC-300/VC-200HD Multi-format Video Convertor.
