Edirol Releases New Media Optimizer/Converter
January 26, 2004
Bellingham, WA - Edirol has announced the release of a new video optimizer & media converter – the VMC-1 Analog to DV bi-directional converter.
The converted video streams can be corrected with real-time color adjustments without using a PC or video editing applications. Time-based errors or video delay from old VCR’s can be removed with the TBC (time base corrector) and frame synchronizer. In addition, motion adaptive 3D Y/C separation can be used to reduce color bleed as well as auto gain control (AGC) to adjust brightness and compensate for exposure problems.
Equipped with two DV (front and rear), one input and two output analog ports consisting of S-video, composition, L/R stereo combinations, the LVC-400 can be used to convert and optimize analog material into the digital domain.
