Features of This Unit
The principal features of this unit are as follows.
MPEG HD
1)
codec
High-quality video and audio playback
The MPEG HD codec provides video compression
compliant with the MPEG-2 MP@HL standard. It enables
HD 4:2:0 digital component file recording in the 1080i
(1,080 effective scanning lines, interlaced) format
currently in use by many broadcast facilities.
Uncompressed PCM recording of 16-bit 48 kHz audio
delivers a wide dynamic range with a high signal-to-noise
ratio.

Playback functions
Support for multiple frame frequencies
The unit can play back five different frame frequencies:
1080/59.94i (displayed as 60I), 50i (displayed as 50I),
29.97PsF (displayed as 30P), 25PsF, and 23.98PsF. The
unit features a standard 2-3 pulldown function, and can
output 60I when playing back a disc recorded in 23.98PsF.

HD downconvert function
An HD downconvert function enables output of SD
composite, component, and i.LINK (DV) signals even
when the playback disc is in an HD format.

The unit features an upconvert function, with the ability to
upconvert to HD and output HD analog component, SDI
signals when playing back DVCAM discs.

Recording of proxy AV data
Proxy AV data is a low-resolution (1.5 Mbps video, 64
kbps per audio channel), MPEG-4 based version of a full-
resolution data stream. XDCAM recorders and camcorders
automatically generate and record low-resolution proxy
AV data whenever they record full-resolution MPEG HD
data. Because of its small size, proxy AV data can be
transferred quickly over computer networks, easily edited
