With BRW-500 software, your Matrox DigiSuite system can be controlled with RS422, as if it were a Sony Digital Betacam
Broadware0 software, your Matrox DigiSuite system can be controlled with RS422, as if it were a Sony Digital Betacam. The BRW-500 has roughly the same features, plus it can play back while recording from the same file. Simultaneous record and playback are controlled through one RS422 port. It has Dynamic Motion Control that allows you to learn and reproduce variable speed sequences. The BRW-500 accepts standard RS422 DMC commands. In addition, it can perform real time field interpolation on speeds slower than 50% to eliminate ‘bopping' of the image.
The BRW-500 uses the DigiSuite's preview- and main video output. Incoming video is shown on the preview output permanently. The main output can either show the playback or E-E (input) signal. You can insert an Alpha TGA graphic over the main output. With a DigiDesktop, you have the main and preview viewer on your VGA screen as well. You can enlarge them to the full NTSC/PAL resolution.
Besides normal Shuttle/Var/Jog control, you can SCRUB through your media to locate any position quickly and easy. Naturally, the BRW-500 accepts the normal RS422 GOTO In, -Out or -"any timecode" commands.
