BrightEye 91HD Upconverter with AES Audio
The BrightEye 91 is an
upconverter with
analog composite and
standard definition
SDI inputs. Feed the
analog composite or
SDI output of a camera
to a BrightEye 91 and
upconvert to HD. Then
take the HD signal into
a switcher or projection
system. Upconverting
existing SD equipment
lets you leverage the
equipment you already have and operate in
the HD domain. An external
reference input allows genlock to a house
reference. All vertical interval data and closed captioning is faithfully
passed.
While some cameras may have IEEE1394 (DV) output, using the video
output and upconverting before distribution is preferable since longer
cable runs can be achieved and quality is superior. Additionally, the
BrightEye 91’s reference input allows you to time the upconverted
video output for use with a production switcher.
BrightEye 91 handles both embedded audio and discreet AES digital
audio inputs. 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 lipsync will be preserved. Audio mixing
is available for two of the four embedded groups of 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.
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 Mac or PC software.

BrightEye 90-A HD Up/Down Cross Converter
and ARC with Analog Audio
Otherwise identical to
the BrightEye 90, the
BrightEye 90-A handles
both embedded audio
and eight channels of
analog audio. Sixteen
channels of embedded
audio are supported in
BrightEye 90-A. 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 analog audio I/O ports can be configured for 8-channels of
audio input or output.

BrightEye 90-F HD Up/Down Cross Converter
and ARC with AES Audio & Optical Output
The BrightEye 90-F
Cross Converter is
identical to the
BrightEye 90, but

connectivity allows
for long cable runs
between buildings
or in mobile applica-
tions.
