V1-U.HD – HDTV Uncompressed Disk Recorder Applications

V1-UHD applications include HD post production in film to HD mastering stages and HD editing. Uncompressed recording removes generation loss from the processing chain. The V1-UHD provides higher resolution than tape based solutions at a lower cost.

The V1-UHD is also ideal for transfer of graphic images to and from the V1 and a computer workstation for digital animation, film restoration, digital effects and more. TCP/IP image transfer and control capability from any workstation on the network.

V1-MP2.HD – HDTV MPEG2 Disk Recorder Applications

The V1-MP2.HD is ideal as a playback device for digital cinema and other large high-resolution display applications. V1-MP2.HD also excels as a drop-in replacement for HD tape recorders in HD production and broadcast applications.

The V1-MP2.HD’s MPEG2 compression (at up to 300Mb/s) helps to preserve the video image quality while significantly reducing storage space requirements. Storage capacity in the 3RU chassis at 100Mb/s is 192 minutes. Additional recording time can be achieved with Doremi’s external drive chassis.
