The Bluefish444 Epoch 2K Ultra Video Card, with 3G-SDI, 12-bit video processing, and Stereoscopic 3D capability, can be used for broadcast engineering applications. It provides maximum bandwidth of up to 1.1 Gb/sec offering full duplex DMA (direct memory access) for two streams
Incorporating 3 x 1D LUT (look up tables used to calculate preview colors) on all outputs, the Epoch 2K Ultra Video Card enables accurate calibration of the display device and log/linear conversion. It comes with 12 bit video processing for inter conversion between RGB and YUV color spaces. The DVI/HDMI preview output features hardware based scaling that bypasses the low quality internal scaler of the display, and converts the selected input/output to display native resolution and frame rate.
The RapidFlow+MR2 technology enables high quality live hardware scaling for conversion between video formats and offers workflow flexibility with efficient signal routing. The technology can be implemented with 2 optional hardware modules (Jetstream and VariVue) onboard on the Epoch video card. In addition to supporting various digital video signal input/output formats, the Epoch 2K Ultra Video card supports 2048x1556PsF @ 14.98Hz, 15Hz, 18.98Hz, 19Hz video modes.
