J-30/SDICompact office video player and feeder with SDI and i.Link outputs. |
|
Feeder for non-linear editing systems
RS-422 remote control and SDI outputs are provided for use with logging and non-linear editing systems. An i.Link interface is also included to feed 25Mb/s DV-based editors. Remote control of the J-30/SDI by the editor via i.Link is also supported. The J-30/SDI has not, however, been designed for linear online editing or on-air use, or for applications where 100% guaranteed frame accurate playback is required.
625/525 switchable for international use
The J-30/SDI can playback tapes recorded either in 625 or 525 line standards. Signal output is the same line standard as the tape (i.e. no standards conversion is performed).
Choice of outputs
The J-30/SDI video outputs are SDI, i.Link, analogue composite and S-VHS. Audio output is analogue or via the i.Link or SDI interfaces.
Playback of Digital Betacam, MPEG IMX, Betacam SX, Betacam SP and Betacam tapes
During cassette loading the tape format is identified automatically.
Playback of large or small Betacam cassettes
The J-30/SDI can replay both small and large cassettes. This provides a replay time of over 3 hours from Betacam SX and MPEG IMX tapes.
Infra red remote control
An infra red remote controller is supplied with each J-30/SDI. Tapes can be cued and reviewed from the comfort of your armchair.
Choice of vertical or horizontal use
The J-30/SDI can be stood vertically (on its side) on your desk next to your PC keyboard and monitor. A vertical stand is supplied with each player to maximise space during desktop use.
Metadata enabled
The J-30/SDI can read UMID (Unique Material Identifier) data from tape. This data assigns a unique ID to a video clip or sequence, and makes it easier to locate material during production or after archival. MSW-M2000P/1 Series MPEG IMX recorders can generate and store UMID on MPEG IMX tape, and these tapes can be replayed by the J-30/SDI. The UMID can also be output from the J-30/SDI via SDI for content tracking during subsequent processing.
Timecode output
External equipment can be locked to the timecode output of the
J-30/SDI using the BNC connector on the rear panel.
