The Barco Encore Video Processor One M/E is a processing, scaling, switching and effects video processor for presentation and broacast applications. It features universal inputs, transition effects, down stream keying and scan conversion with mix and effect image processing. This model supports one channel of M/E (mix and effect).
Scaler
This scaler supports smooth real-time PIP movements and re-sizing based upon user specified Key Frames.
Basic Configuration
The basic Encore configuration supports six independent PIP or Key images or three transitioning PIP images. Seamless transition effects, Z-order control, window borders, drop shadows and a variety of keying effects are fully supported. Two un-scaled background channels provide a high resolution backdrop that also supports seamless transition effects. Down Stream Key (DSK) effects are supported by a third un-scaled high-resolution input channel.
M/E Boards
Each M/E board provides two independent Athena scaler channels with universal inputs that handle both analog and digital video sources. The unit accepts standard component and composite analog video formats (NTSC, PAL, SECAM), SDI video, computer resolutions up to 1600x1200, analog HD formats including 720p, 1080I, 1080p, HD-SDI Video, 2048x1080p Digital Cinema video, and Plasma display resolutions.
Output
Each Encore Video Processor incorporates one Output Board. This board provides all output interface functions as well as blending and data-doubling functions required to support widescreen applications. Output resolutions supported include computer resolutions up to 1600x1200, analog HDTV resolutions including 720p, 1080I, 1080p, HDSDI Video, 2048x1080p Digital Cinema video, and Plasma display resolutions. Output synchronization is supported to lock the output frame rate to an externally applied NTSC/PAL black burst signal.
