Grass Valley ADVC-1000
Broadcast-quality Bidirectional SDI/DV Conversion |
 .
|
Engineered for broadcast environments, ADVC®1000 is a high-quality bidirectional SDI/DV video converter. Grass Valley® PerfectSync technology ensures perfect DV-to-SDI conversion of every frame. The preeminent SDI in/out solution for any professional DV interface, ADVC1000 converts DV device control signals to RS422, facilitating capture from professional VTRs using standard DV editing software with DV device control. Reference input and LTC input/output can be utilized to create a professional video editing system with editors or switchers. ADVC1000 is quickly configurable with front panel controls and LCD display, offers analogue video and unbalanced audio outputs for monitor preview, and a solid half-1U rack mount design.

Perfect Signal Synchronization: Grass Valley "PerfectSync"
(patent pending) |
| Grass Valley has realized perfect signal synchronization output with an external reference signal (house sync) for Windows* and Mac OS based DV-to-SDI conversion. ADVC1000 features original technology to control and synchronize the transfer rate of IEEE 1394 communication with an external reference signal. This prevents skipped and duplicate frames and produces perfect conversion of all frames during DV-to-SDI conversion. |

| * For NTSC video conversion using Windows 2000, PerfectSync operation cannot be guaranteed due to a limitation of the operating system |
VTR Control by AV/C-RS422 Conversion
ADVC1000 converts DV device control signals to RS422, to control an external VTR. Such control makes it possible to take in data from professional VTRs such as Digital Betacam from any standard DV editing software that features DV device control. |
Professional Video System Input
Reference input and LTC input/output can be utilized to create a professional video editing system with editors or switchers.
Reference Input
- LTC input/output
- Reciprocal TC conversions (LTC, VITC, DV TC)
|
Four-channel Embedded Audio Support
SDI supports up to four channels of embedded audio. It transfers professional level video/audio signals and can connect to long distance transmission systems. ADVC1000 has AES/EBU terminals to support multi-channel audio operation with a professional audio mixer. |
Advanced Usability
ADVC1000 is quickly configurable. Front panel controls include a mode switch and menu selection buttons with an LCD display for conversion settings.
ADVC1000 can operate as a stand-alone device not requiring a computer while keeping any preprogrammed settings. |
