  • Avenue 5230 & 6230 Digital to Analog Video Converter and Disembedder

    The 5230 converts serial digital component video into either composite or component analog outputs. Its 8 x oversampling and 12 bit processing ensure high quality conversion for use in the most demanding applications.

    The 5230 has a full-featured Proc Amp for adjustment of every signal parameter. Proc controls include Video and Chroma Gain, NTSC-style hue rotation, Black Balance, and pedestal. Module parameters can be monitored and controlled locally and remotely.

    The 5230 provides fully adjustable output timing relative to the reference input signal. Composite outputs can be precisely color timed and will also track color framing of the reference signal. Incorporating a full-frame synchronizer, the 5230 accepts serial inputs that are asynchronous to the reference. On loss of input, the output can mute to black or freeze on the last good frame of video.

    The 6230 is an optional sub module for converting AES inputs or embedded audio content to analog. There is a four channel audio mixer for level controls, audio shuffling, and phase inversion. The 6230 also has automatic tracking delay and bulk delay to keep lip sync correct.

    BrightEye 16 SDI to Analog Video Converter with Frame Sync/Genlock and Audio DisembedderBrightEye 16 is a digital to analog video converter with a timeable output. It’s perfect for feeding analog switchers and routers, where signal timing is required. It’s also a disembedder and provides four analog audio outputs. With timing controls, proc adjustments, and a built-in audio mixer, BrightEye 16 provides a complete solution for digital to analog conversion. BrightEye 16 has an SDI video input and a reference input. The input signal is converted to analog composite and synchronized (genlocked) to the reference signal. The analog composite output is fully timed with respect to the reference, including ScH phase. Audio is disembedded with 24 bit precision and converted to analog. Basic controls are accessed on the front panel. Use the BrightEye Control app to access video proc controls and the built-in audio mixer. The vertical interval can be passed or blanked. VU indication is provided on the front panel and BrightEye Control.
    BrightEye 90 HD Up/Down Cross Converter and ARC with AES AudioBrightEye 90 is a versatile up/down/cross converter or aspect ratio converter for use with analog and digital video signals. Simply set the BrightEye 90 to output your facility’s preferred or SD standard. The BrightEye 90 will accommodate whatever input you connect – analog composite, SD SDI or HD SDI. After setting the output standard, BrightEye 90 automatically converts the selected input to the correct standard for your facility. BrightEye 90 will upconvert, downconvert, cross convert, or act as an ARC, as needed. The built-in Frame Synchronizer allows you to feed asynchronous signals to the BrightEye 90. An external reference input allows genlock to a house reference. All vertical interval data and closed captioning is faithfully passed. Upconverting to High Definition Feed the analog composite or SD SDI output of a camera to a BrightEye 90 and upconvert to HD. You can take the HD signal from the BrightEye 90 into a switcher or projection system. Upconverting existing SD equipment lets you leverage the equipment you already have and operate in the HD domain. While some cameras may have firewire out, using the video output and upconverting before distribution is preferable since longer cable runs can be achieved and quality is superior. Additionally, the BrightEye 90’s reference input allows you to time the upconverted video output for use with a production switcher. Downconverting to Standard Definition BrightEye 90 will downconvert any type of HD signal and provides both an SD SDI and an analog composite output suitable for broadcast or monitoring. Cross Conversion It’s easy to convert between various HD standards, whether 720p or 1080i. Simply select the output standard you need and connect the input, that’s all there is to it. Aspect Ratio Conversion For converting between SD 4:3 and HD 16:9, BrightEye 90 has you covered. Just select the output standard you need and connect the input. Audio Processing Made Simple BrightEye 90 handles both embedded audio and discreet AES digital audio streams. Sixteen channels of embedded audio are supported in BrightEye 90. If the incoming video has embedded audio, the audio will be safely bypassed around the video processing and lipsync will be preserved. Audio mixing is available for two of the four embedded groups of audio. The AES I/O ports can be configured for eight channels of incoming audio or for eight channels of audio output. The audio mixer can be used for AES channels as well. Mixer controls are accessed through the BrightEye Control app. Monitoring for Video and Audio Audio monitoring is easy with BrightEye 90’s convenient 3.5mm mini jack. Select the audio channels you want to monitor from the front panel and plug in a headset. The HDMI connector on the rear of the unit provides a future proof monitoring interface. Plug it into most LCD monitors for confidence monitoring of your feed. Front Panel and Software Control Input selection, gain control, and test pattern controls are provided through the front panel interface. Audio presence LEDs indicate which channels are detected. Controls for crop, letterbox and pillarbox are accessed from the front panel or BrightEye Mac or PC software. Video and audio levels and the audio mixer can be adjusted through BrightEye Control.
    BrightEye 55 Genlockable Sync Generator and Test Signal GeneratorBrightEye 55 is a genlockable sync generator and test signal generator that can be used as either a slave or master reference generator. It can lock to house reference or it can lock to its own internal precision standard. BrightEye 55 is well suited for remote trucks, desktop and fly packs. Color Black, Bars, Crosshatch, Multi-burst, and SDI Checkfield (Pathological) are just some of the signals simultaneouslyavailable on the SDI and analog composite outputs. An ID slate with user programmable text can overlay the test pattern. The cyclops feature adds a motion element to the video test signal, handy for live applications. The Tri-Level Sync output provides reference to high definition equipment, such as VTRs, disc recorders and workstations. There are a wide variety of user selectable formats including: 720p, 1080i, 1080sF, and 1080p. Format selections and other controls are accessed through the BrightEye Control app. AES 3id digital audio, analog audio and embedded audio reference outputs are provided.
    BrightEye 70 HD/SD AES Embedder/DisembedderThe BrightEye 70 is a dual rate eight channel audio embedder or disembedder for 1.5Gb/s high definition video signals or for 270Mb/s standard definition signals. Four AES ports automatically configure as inputs or outputs depending if the module is configured as mux or demux. When configured as a multiplexer, the BrightEye 70 has one serial digital video input and four AES audio inputs. These four AES streams are embedded into the video stream. AES inputs are sample rate converted, allowing the use of asynchronous audio. The output of the module is a digital stream that contains the original video signal and four AES pairs. When configured as a demultiplexer, audio signals present in the incoming video signal are extracted and delivered as standard AES digital audio streams. The BrightEye 70 includes an eight channel audio mixer with channel swap and shuffle capability that allows you to completely rearrange and remix audio channels. It provides precise control over audio level, with up to 12 dB of gain to compensate for low level sources. All audio processing is performed at full 24 bit resolution by a digital signal processor (DSP). Delay is adjustable up to one second. The Data mode operation allows embedding or disembedding of Dolby E or AC3 signals.
