The VC series also accepts signals and direct connections from computer RGB sources. A wide variety of output devices like record decks, data projectors or plasma/LCD displays can be directly connected. Bi-directional Conversion and Scaling HD VCR Preview Monitor Computer Projector Plasma Display Bi-directional conversion of different formats like 59.94i, 50p etc. is possible with the VC Series. Multiple resolutions like 480i/p,720p or 1080i can be input/output along with NTSC/PAL conversion. For recording of live video and audio Video Sources Source Preview Projector Audio Sources Gen lock with external devices Designed for the Highest Quality Image The VC Series uses high quality A/D and D/A converters for input and output along with internal 4:4:4 10 bit signal processing. From simple format conversion to MPEG encode/decode to complex frame rate conversions, the VC Series delivers professional results. The input and output to and from the VC series can be gen-locked with external devices. The VC supports a variety of sync signals including analog BB, Bi-level (SD) or Tri-level (HD). The VC Series' built-in frame synchronizer helps to lock signals from consumer products or computers.
