BrightEye 90 HD Up/Down Cross Converter
and ARC with AES Audio
Automatically converts
analog composite,
standard or high
definition SDI inputs
to your facility’s
preferred HD or SD
standard. It will upconvert,
downconvert, cross
convert, or act as an ARC,
as needed. Built-in Frame
Synchronizer allows you
to feed asynchronous
signals to the BrightEye 90.
External reference input allows genlock to a house reference. All vertical
interval data and closed captioning is faithfully passed.
Upconvert to High Definition: Feed the analog composite or
standard definition SDI output of a camera to a BrightEye 90 and
upconvert to HD. You can then take the HD signal into a switcher or
projection system. Video output and upconverting before
distribution is preferable to IEEE1394 output, 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,
Just select the output standard you need and connect the input.
Audio Processing: BrightEye 90 handles both embedded audio
and discreet AES digital audio streams. It supports 16-channels of
embedded audio. If the incoming video has embedded audio, the
audio will be safely bypassed around the video processing and lip
sync 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
8-channels of audio input or output. The audio mixer can be used for
AES channels as well. Mixer controls are accessed through BrightEye
Mac or PC software.
Monitoring for Video and Audio: Plug in a headset and select the
audio channels you want to monitor from the front panel. In addition,
an HDMI output on the rear of the unit, allows you to plug into most
LCD monitors for confidence monitoring of your feed.
Front Panel and Software Control: Input selection, gain control, and
ftest 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 Mac or PC software.

BrightEye 75 HD/SD A/D Video Converter
and Analog Audio Embedder
An analog video to
digital converter and
audio embedder.
Standard definition
component or composite,
or high definition
analog component
video is accepted on
the input BNCs. Two
channels of analog audio are input on a plugable Phoenix connector.
Perfect for use with HD cameras or other devices with analog I/O. The
digital output will carry the full, un-compressed input, synchronous to a
genlock reference.You can turn a hand-held HD camera into a digital
source. A three camera, live studio suddenly becomes affordable.
The built-in TBC / Frame Synchronizer allows you to feed asynchronous
or noisy signals to the BrightEye 75. The input is digitized to 12-bits of
resolution and time base corrected by a noise tolerant tracking circuit.
An external reference input allows genlock to a house reference. Input
selection, gain control, and TBC enable is provided through the front
panel interface. Video levels can be adjusted through BrightEye Mac or
PC software. The video and audio signals are embedded and presented
on a BNC. The output follows the SD or HD input standard.
