FEATURES
|
|
Superb Quality- A fully digital
encoding system ensures that the NTSC/PAL video signal produced by the
Eclipse is the highest possible quality. This card outperforms
discreet component video encoders costing thousands! We've been in the
broadcast video business since 1987, and trust us when we say "this is
the very best available." |
|
Live Video Keying- Take live
video and superimpose graphics, text, animations, or other video clips
playing on the PC. The soft edge control ensures that you get
perfectly smooth anti-aliasing on edges against the live video |
|
Auto Detect - This feature
automatically recognizes and converts the incoming computer image, up
to 1600 x 1200 resolution and 100 kHz horizontal scan rate and
automatically configures itself. |
|
AutoSet - With the touch of a
button, the Eclipse automatically sizes and positions the incoming
computer signal to fit exactly on the video screen. |
|
Horizontal & Vertical Size & Position
- In addition to AutoSet, additional flexibility is provided by
Eclipse's wide range size and positioning controls. |
|
Configuration Memory - This
feature remembers various computer types and screen resolutions so
that the next time the Eclipse recognizes a previously seen set of
parameters, it automatically configures to those settings.
Non-volatile RAM ensures immediate power up of desired settings. No
software to load during bootup! |
|
Computer SVGA Loop-thru - This
allows the user to display images on the local computer monitor as
video plays simultaneously on the NTSC/PAL display device. |
|
Full Bandwidth Color Sampling -
Eclipse's 24 bit sampling provides 8 bits per color for 16.8 million
colors. No banding or artifacts. Gradients are smooth! |
|
Scalable Overscan/Underscan -
Each position is scalable, so the user can determine the precise size
of the image in either mode. |
|
Onscreen
Displays - to show menus and options, simplifying front panel
control over all scan converter functions. The Eclipse provides this
information via an On-Screen Display. Display can be turned off to
prevent it from accidentally being enabled during mission critical
display operations (such as broadcast TV) |
|
RS-232 Interface - Includes an
RS-232 port for remote control of any of its features and functions.
Control software is provided and custom applications are easy to
create with our simple command structure. Simple ASCII commands can be
sent our the serial port in a method similar to controller a Hayes
compatible Modem. You can send commands using nothing more than a Text
file and a batch command or command line. |
|
Windows Software Control
- Easy to use Windows control software (included) allows
menu-driven precise control over size, positioning, keying level, key
softness, H/SC phase and much more. Also allows you to save precise
settings to non-volatile RAM on the unit for instant recovery on
powerup. |
|
Image Zoom - Incorporates a 2X
Zoom with full Pan capability and since the zooming is done before the
scan conversion process, the output quality is superb. |
|
Flicker Elimination - Eclipse's
proprietary digital flicker reduction virtually eliminates interlace
flicker without significantly decreasing image resolution. |
|
Studio Genlock - The Eclipse has
an SCH Phaseable Genlock input with +/- 12 degree H/SC phase
adjustment for easy integration into studios and post production
environments. |
|
Genlock with Overlay - The
Eclipse will lock to an incoming Composite or S-Video signal and its
integral digital luminance keyer will allow computer graphics to be
superimposed over the incoming video. Works with studio quality video
or non timebase corrected video tape machines- even VHS! |
