The company announced the launch of the CVR800 and TBS800, two new high-definition standards and format converters for the Kudos Plus signal processing system.
The CVR800 format converter and frame-per-second counter, and the TBS800 format synchronizer and converter offer support for 3Gb/s operations and video I/O composition.
The two systems include a flexible and powerful set of linear and non-linear tools for user-controlled improvements such as adjusting horizontal and vertical attributes during format conversion. Just as moving video elements are processed by format conversion technology, a frame mode allows operators to process fixed elements, such as logos and banners, separately from the main image to ensure optimal quality.
To support North American close caption and audio systems, the CVR800 and TBS800 provide the CEA608 title pass for CEA708 output. Other functions include approval and preservation of auxiliary vertical data space (VANC), data signaling, Support for Active Format Description (AFD), and non-PCM audio passing.
