The operator can select from up to sixteen source videos. Universal inputs accept composite video, s-video, component video, and computer video sources (640x480 VGA to 1600x1200 UXGA). Sources are scaled to match the native resolution or "sweet spot" of the projection devices to ensure optimal image quality. Thirteen different transition effects including dissolves, wipes, cuts, and fade are supported. The duration of each transition effect is programmable. Each screen output supports two buffered program outputs (one five-wire BNC and one HD-15) and a preview output (HD-15). Auxiliary outputs are provided on the rear panel of the unit for feeds that do not require transition effects or scaling.
The ScreenPro PLUS user interface simplifies system setup, adjustment, and control. To perform a transition, the operator simply selects a preview source(s) and presses a key to simultaneously transition up to six screens using any of the thirteen transition effects. Sixty-four preset memories allow complex control sequences to be "learned" for quick recall. Presets can include information about sources, effects, transition rates, PIP's, keying, and auxiliaries. Since all presets are recalled to the preview Monitors, the operator can view, edit, and recall presets without affecting the program outputs.
System Modularity
ScreenPro Plus has been designed to work seamlessly with Folsom's ScreenPro product offerings. This allows customers to utilize Folsom's ScreenPro products for single-screen applications and to utilize the same units in multi-screen applications when combined with ScreenPro Plus. For example, ScreenPro Plus Model 1604 with four-screen output can be utilized with two standard ScreenPro units to support a sixscreen show. The ability to mix and match units to support different types of shows provides both premium performance
Used Video Processors and Mixers
A video processor, sometimes called a vision mixer, is used for professional compositing of video sources or the selection of video sources, in a similar fashion to the way audio streams are mixed and matched with a mixing console.
This video processor technology is normally used in TV studios, video editing bays and production trucks or studios, in the production of TV shows, theatrical shows and concerts. Video processor is actually a term more commonly used in the United States â?? in Europe and other English speaking countries, the terms video or vision mixer are preferred. The operator of a video processor will generally be called a technical director in all countries however.
The technical director will use the video processor to generate multiple transitions of video sources, such as pattern swipes or dissolves. The video processor can also be used to create color signals (or mattes) and carry out keying operations. As such, most video processors are geared towards professional use, and feature either a Serial Digital Interface (in the case of digital models) or component video connections (in the case of analog models).
A digital video processor is normally used for linear video editing in live TV, in conjunction with video servers and video tape recordings. For other uses, such as video presentations, VJing and small productions involving the use of multiple cameras, an analog video processor is still fairly common.
