High-Definition Video Capture and Streaming Solution Offers HD-SDI and PCI Express Compatibility for Broadcasters and Content Owners
PLANO, Texas — April 16, 2007 — ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST - News), a leading global provider of high-quality audio and video communication products, today announced the release of its new high-definition (HD) video capture card, the Osprey-700 HD. The new Osprey-700 HD is an HD-SDI and SD-SDI A/V input card designed for broadcasters and content owners needing to repurpose HD and standard-definition (SD) content for IP video distribution and video-on-demand applications.
With the ability to meet all video resolution needs, from 1080i and 720p to SD, the Osprey-700 HD provides raw HD capture and HD input scaled to SD and lower resolutions appropriate for streaming. The Osprey-700 HD is an excellent choice for ingesting HD/SD video for archiving and/or transcoding.
The Osprey-700 HD card includes the new Osprey Aviator™ encoder management software, which features advanced audio and video pre-processing tools such as an audio dynamic-range compressor and graphic equalizer, advanced video de-interlacing, and a vector scope and waveform monitor. The Osprey-700 HD is compatible with Osprey Digital SimulStream® to allow the output of multiple streams from a single media source to multiple applications.
By utilizing the high-speed PCI Express bus, the Osprey-700 HD provides the bandwidth required for high-resolution video capture in applications for a wide range of HD resolutions including 1080i (60/59.94/50 Hz) and 720p (60/50 Hz).
The Osprey-700 HD offers HD-SDI/SD-SDI video input with embedded SDI audio. It also supports extraction of vertical blanking interval (VBI) data for closed-captioning and Teletext applications.
"The Osprey-700 HD is a high-end capture solution for content owners and content aggregators using SDI video capture sources — both HD and SD," said David Stoner, president of ViewCast. "It is the first HD-compatible product from ViewCast and part of the new PCIe family of ViewCast Osprey capture cards developed for next-generation, high-performance systems."
