1-1 Features
1) A clip is created every time recording is stopped.
Supporting digital and analog interfaces
This unit supports the following interfaces.
Digital interfaces
SDI: This allows the unit to output D1 (component) format
digital video and audio signals.
i.LINK: The DVCAM format digital video and audio
signals can be input and output. This unit supports the
AV/C and FAM protocols. Connecting a computer
with the FAM driver installed allows video and audio
data to be transferred at high speeds.
Analog interfaces
Video: The unit can output a composite analog video
signal.
Audio: The unit can output two-channel stereo audio
signals.
DVCAM output from MPEG IMX playback
When the PDW-V1 plays back an MPEG IMX stream, it
outputs a corresponding DVCAM stream at the same time
through its i.LINK (AV/C) port. This is very useful when
carrying out off-line editing with a popular non-linear
editor using DVCAM format.
Flexible metadata handing
XDCAM
1)
can record various types of metadata together
with video and audio data, such as the date and time of
shooting, the cameraman, the recording method, and
comments about the material. This metadata can be used in
applications such as the following.
• The supplied PDZ-1 Proxy Browsing Software can be
used to add titles, comments, and other text data to discs
and clips.
• Computer-readable text files can be recorded on the
Professional Disc, to allow systematic content
management.
• The ability to search metadata for the required audio and
video scenes brings greater efficiency to various stages
of the video production process (editing, archiving, etc.).
1) XDCAM is a trademark of Sony Corporation.
Color LCD built-in
With the built-in 3.5-inch type color LCD screen, you can
display contents on the disc without an external monitor.
RGB output connector provided
The MONITOR connector outputs analog RGB signals.
You can input the signals to a PC-compatible display or
projector.
Compact size, lightweight and battery-
powered operation
The PDW-V1 is designed small and light enough to carry
out to the field and it is operable with battery to work
speedily in the field.
Supporting SNMP for service and
maintenance
The PDW-V1 is compatible with Sony remote
maintenance and monitoring software—an SNMP-
compliant application that can monitor and log the
hardware’s status in real time via a TCP/IP network. If a
malfunction is detected, this system can immediately
identify the problem, allowing you to take corrective
action.
