Doremi Labs' MCS-HD Server sets a new standard in video server value and performance. The MCS-HD features two record and two play independent HD video channels with shared storage and selectable compression rates.

The MCS-HD quickly integrates into a facility's existing operations. It features a front panel that mimics familiar VTR controls and is compatible with Odetics and VDCP automation protocols as well as the P2 protocol. It can record all popular high definition and standard definition video formats.

The MCS-HD features JPEG2000 video compression of the SDI and HD-SDI inputs. JPEG2000 is particularly suited to HD video compression. It can provide near uncompressed quality video using a fraction of the storage required with uncompressed systems.
