FOR-A Reveals Multi Format Player |
|
 A leading manufacturer of video and audio systems for the broadcast and professional video industries, will introduce the MBP-100MP Multi Format Player at NAB this year.
Launched by FOR-A, it offers HD/SD-SDI baseband output of major file formats used in video production, including MXF files such as XDCAM HD and P2HD.
"Many facilities are building file-based workflows, but are still working with multiple file formats," commented Hiro Tanoue, President, FOR-A Corporation of America. "Our new MBP-100MP allows you to collect those various file formats into one central location and play them out as baseband signals. It’s ideal for users with multiple system generated file formats in house who do not want to be limited by these file formats when importing footage."
Equipped with HD/SD-SDI output, the MBP-100MP supports the playback of a number of various files, including P2HD (DVCPRO HD and AVC-Intra), XDCAM (EX, HD, and HD422), Ikegami GF, Apple QuickTime (DVCPRO codec), HDV, and AVCHD. It also supports audio files conforming to the various video formats – and eight-channel embedded audio output. The 1 RU player is housed in a vibration-resistant case and features 128 GB of solid-state storage, making it an ideal solution for portable applications.
The MBP-100MP supports 100Base-TX/1000Base-T Ethernet allowing high-speed file transfers. Four USB 2.0 ports offer connections to external drives, keyboard and mouse. The RS-422 port connects external control with an optional VTR emulation command, and the optional GPI terminal enables playback and stop controls.
The MBP-100MP control software uses thumbnail images for users to confirm the content of recorded clips at a glance, complete with file format, file name, and timecode. By incorporating the footage into FOR-A’s MediaConcierge media management system, the MBP-100MP can also be used as a clip server.
The MBP-100MP will be available this July.
FOR-A can be located at NAB Booth C5219, Las Vegas, Nevada, April 12th-15th 2010.
