nNovia Delivers Enhanced QuickCapture A2D DVR
December 09, 2003
San Jose, CA - nNovia Inc. is shipping with QuickCapture A2D, now with enhanced features, the company has announced.
QuickCapture A2D offers tapeless recording from analog or digital sources, IEEE 1394 connectivity with "edit-ready, render-free" AVI Type-2 material, and playback of source material in either analog or digital formats. QuickCapture A2D also is an analog/digital media converter, allowing source material in one format to be output in the other.
The most significant upgrade is support for the MOV digital file format, which allows QuickCapture A2D to be integrated seamlessly into Apple
Computer-based editing stations using Final Cut Pro software. With its new MOV support, QuickCapture A2D can be used with all of the most popular NLE systems available today.
In addition to its already announced features, which include complete support for both SBP-2 and AV/C protocols, up to 99 "bins" for "organize as you acquire" convenience, and compatibility with both computer-based and standalone editing systems, QuickCapture A2D has been enhanced to provide even more flexibility and control for professional videographers using either analog or digital video sources.
QuickCapture A2D also supports finer playback control in a number of ways. Slow-motion playback is now available in both forward and reverse at speeds from 1/2X (half-speed) through 1/32X (less than 1 frame per second). An NTSC Brightness control has also been added to make it easier for users to view their content in a wide variety of lighting conditions.
Finally, nNovia has improved the "bin" feature to include automatic mark insertion and better search capability. Marks are now inserted
automatically at the start and end of every clip, while the user still retains the ability to add extra marks during the record process. Users can
now move quickly from clip to clip and from mark to mark in both forward and reverse directions.
QuickCapture A2D, available in 40 GB, 60 GB and 80 GB models, providing up to six hours of total recording time for NTSC or PAL material,
is shipping now. Pricing begins at under $1400.
