2RU Main Frame for up to 4 Input boards and 2 Output boards
Video and Audio Systems for Broadcast Post-Production, and Professional Video
FOR-A : MV-3200MF
Description
The For-A MV-3200MF Multi Viewer Main Frame for 4 Input & 2 Output Boards serves as the core of a multiviewer system that can take in up to 32 video inputs and output them to up to four monitors, with a customizable layout of multiple video sources on each display. The versatile multiviewer mixes analog and digital sources as well as video resolutions (HD and NTSC/PAL SD) for maximum utility in real-world environments, where a multitude of video flavors might be present.
To suit the multiview display needs of your video system, you’ll need to fill the two-rack-unit MV-3200MF frame with I/O boards (sold separately). Up to four input boards and two output boards are accepted. Options exist for input of HD/SD-SDI digital video/audio (with or without loop-through), analog composite video (with or without loop-through), DVI-I analog or digital video, analog audio, and AES digital audio. There’s also the option (on an output board) for the input of DVI-D signals in order to connect another multiviewer for the purpose of cascading, thereby adding I/O channels to the system. Video output is via DVI-I on one or two optional output boards. Audio output is stereo analog via two RCA connectors.
Features
MV-3200MF features include:
- The MV-3200MF Main Frame supports mixed input of analog composite, SD-SDI, HD-SDI, and DVI signals by combining optional input cards (asynchronous input is allowed)
- Each optional output card can display up to 32 video windows. The input video of your choice can be selected for any video window, and the same input video can be displayed on multiple windows
- A maximum of four clocks can be displayed for each output board. If not used as a clock display, it can be used as a count-up/count-down timer
- The included layout editor software, which operates on a PC, lets you change various settings such as split patterns and title display. Up to 32 patterns of screen layout can be saved to the main frame's memory. By using the dedicated control panel (not included), layout patterns saved on the main unit can be recalled easily
- The levels of the embedded audio signals of any HD/SD-SDI input signals can be displayed via the multiviewer. If you install an analog audio or AES/EBU audio board into an input board slot, their levels also can be displayed
- Frame tally or marker tally indicator can be selected. Two tally indicators can be set per window
- Up to two strings of text can be displayed for each input. Supports display of alphanumeric characters and symbols (up to 16 letters), which can be displayed within or outside the picture
- Up to two optional output cards can be installed in the main frame, each operating independently. If one card malfunctions, the other one can display 32 inputs
