HDSD9045TR

4:4:4 HD/SD Film Footage Encoder

The Evertz 4:4:4/HD/SD VANC Encoder can be used in a variety of applications such as Video Production Metadata Encoder, Film Metadata Encoder, for both 4:4:4 RGB and 4:2:2 YCbCr high definition video or 4:2:2 YCbCr standard definition video.

When operated as a Film Metadata Encoder, the HDSD9045TR is the heart of the Film post production system and is designed to simplify the management of your film to tape transfers. Under control of the powerful KeyLog Tracker™ software, the HDSD9045TR permits the seamless integration of video and audio time codes, film KeyKode and production information whether you are transferring to 24, 25 or 30Fps high definition video. During the transfer, KeyLog Tracker™, Evertz telecine logging and configuration management tool logs the relationships between these important parameters and outputs many industry standard interchange file formats for use by off-line editing systems. The HDSD9045TR can operate in either HDTV or SDTV mode. The HDSD9045TR provides one dual link or single link program output (characters optional) and one single link monitor output with burned in characters.

In 4:4:4 HDTV mode, the HDSD9045TR encodes the time codes, KeyKode and production information into industry standard SMPTE RP215 vertical ancillary (VANC) data packets on its dual link 4:4:4 RGB Programme output. In addition the HDSD9045TR converts the 4:4:4 RGB to a 4:2:2 YCbCr serial output with the VANC data and optional burned in characters for monitoring. In 4:2:2 HDTV mode, the HDSD9045TR encodes VANC data packets on its 4:2:2 YCbCr Programme output. In addition the HDSD9045TR has a second 4:2:2 YCbCr serial output with the VANC data and optional burned in characters for monitoring. In SDTV mode, the HDSD9045TR encodes the time codes, KeyKode and production information into industry standard SMPTE RP201 3-line VITC on its 4:2:2 SDI Programme output. The Monitor SDI output provides 3-line VITC and burned in characters. The programmable telecine interface allows the encoder to interface to a wide variety of telecine configurations.

In all HDTV modes, the user can also apply one of 5 user programmable look up tables to either output to modify the "look" of the HDTV output. Separate LTC inputs and outputs for the video and audio timecodes allows handling of mixed timecodes.

When operated as a Video Production Metadata Encoder the HDSD9045TR is designed to simplify the management of your high definition video acquired production material for both 4:4:4 RGB and 4:2:2 YCbCr high definition video. Under control of the powerful KeyLog Tracker™ software, the HDSD9045TR VANC Encoder permits the seamless integration of video and audio timecodes, and production metadata such as camera, lens and dolly information, scene, take and roll numbers. During acquisition or after during an editorial dubbing process, KeyLog Tracker™ logs the essential metadata along with the relationships between the source and record timecodes, and outputs many industry standard interchange file formats for use by off-line editing systems.

The HDSD9045TR encodes the timecodes, production metadata into industry standard vertical ancillary (VANC) data packets on its dual link 4:4:4 RGB Programme output. In addition the HDSD9045TR converts the 4:4:4 RGB to a 4:2:2 YCbCr serial output with the VANC data and optional burned in characters for monitoring. Metadata is collected from the production environment using up to 3 serial ports or an Ethernet port.

The HDSD9045TR can be easily configured using version 3 of Evertz popular KeyLog Tracker™ software (included). The Tracker graphical software allows the user to store multiple configurations for the Film Metadata Encoders and the Afterburners. A simple on screen control in the Tracker software performs switching between 4:4:4 and 4:2:2 HDTV and SDTV modes. Toolbar buttons allow the user to quickly choose which device is being addressed. For stand alone applications these devices can also be controlled from the local front panel using the built-in on screen menu system. The new version 3 of Evertz popular KeyLog Tracker™ software allows the user to store multiple configurations for both the HDSD9045TR and HDSD9155Q and is compatible with most of the previous generations of Evertz® film Footage Encoders and Afterburners.
