  • Avenue 7130 HD DA and Downconverter

    The 7130 module has an HD SDI input with HD SDI, SD SDI and composite outputs, serving as both a downconverter and a distribution amplifier. If an SD SDI signal is input to the 7130, SD will pass to the outputs.

    The 7130 performs automatic color space and gamma conversion to accommodate the differences between HD and SD. Output aspect ratio is selectable.

    Audio Handling

    Four channels of analog audio output are provided for monitoring. Any of the sixteen embedded channels can be mapped and mixed to form these outputs.

    Embedded audio is safely bypassed around the video with the lip sync preserved. Sixteen channels of embedded audio are supported. Audio processing is performed at 24 bit resolution.

    Control

    The 7130 can be configured locally or controlled and configured remotely with Avenue 5050 Touch Screen, Avenue Tabletop Control Panel, Avenue Express Panel, or Avenue PC Software. Alarm generation, configurable user levels, module lock-out, and customizable menus are just some of the tools included in the Avenue control system.

    Meta Data

    HD closed captioning is carried in data packets in the vertical interval ancillary data space. The 7130 properly translates HD caption data to traditional SD captioning (line 21 or 23) so that closed captioning content is converted transparently between video standards and formats.

    Automatic Aspect Ratio Conversion

    The 7130 uses WSS (Wide Screen Signaling) and AFD (Active Format Description) to mark or identify the aspect ratio of the video content. These flags are read at the input of the module.

    BrightEye 71 & 71-F HD/SD 8 Channel Analog Audio Embedder/DisembedderThe BrightEye 71 is a dual rate eight channel analog audio embedder or disembedder for 1.5Gb/s high definition video signals or for 270Mb/s standard definition signals. The analog audio ports automatically configure as inputs or outputs depending if the module is configured as mux or demux. When configured as a multiplexer, the BrightEye 71 has one serial digital video input and eight analog audio inputs. The audio streams are embedded into the video stream. The output of the module is a digital stream that contains the original video and audio signals. When configured as a demultiplexer, audio signals present in the incoming video signal are extracted and delivered as analog audio. The BrightEye 71 includes an eight channel audio mixer with channel swap and shuffle capability that allows you to completely re-arrange and re-mix 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. Order the BrightEye 71-F if you need an optical output.
    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.
    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.
