Features
HDCAM recording and playback
HDCAM uses intra-frame DCT compression using a compression ratio of about 7:1. There are four channels of 48kHz digital audio at 20-bit resolution.
Selectable frame rates
The HDW-M2000P/20 can record and replay at 1080/50i, 1080/59.94i, 1080/25P, 1080/29.97P, 1080/23.98P and 1080/24P.
Compatible replay of standard definition cassettes
Betacam, Betacam SP, Betacam SX, MPEG IMX and Digital Betacam cassettes can be replayed. The HDW-M2000P/20 is optimised for analogue 625/50 Betacam and Betacam SP playback, but can replay 525/60 Betacam and Betacam SP tapes and provide a monitoring quality output. Full playback quality is achivedwhen replaying Betacam SX, MPEG IMX and Digital Betacam 525/60 tapes.
Built-in up and down converters
The HDW-M2000P/20 has a built in HD to SD downconverter and a built-in SD to HD upconverter. Downconversion allows tapes shot in HDCAM to be output in standard definition for subsequent post production or distribution. The downconverted image can be squeezed or cropped within the VTR for display on a 4:3 monitor.
No compromise in editing performance
Assemble, insert and pre-read editing is provided. When used in pre-read mode, the HDW-M2000P/20 can be used to insert titles into video material using a single VTR.
Broadcast quality slow motion
The HDW-M2000P/20 has DT (Dynamic Tracking) heads as standard. Broadcast quality pictures can be replayed in the range -1 to x2 speed from HDCAM tapes, and from -1 to x3 speed when replaying Betacam, Betacam SP, Betacam SX, MPEG IMX and Digital Betacam cassettes.
High quality picture search and jog
Selecting edit points is easy with the HDW-M2000P/20. Pictures and sound can be searched at up to x50 normal speed.
Compact chassis
The HDW-M2000P/20 uses a 4U chassis design, in common with MPEG IMX VTRs and the new DVW-M2000P series Digital Betacam VTRs.
Surround sound
Both Dolby-E and AC-3 are handled as standard
