CINEMA CRAFT® Xtream Encoder System Specifications

Video Compression

Video encoding

Input interface: SDI (1/BNCx1)
Input format: ITU-R Rec.BT.601, SMPTE259M (NTSC/PAL)
Output format: MPEG2 - Video ES
Encoding mode: CBR = Single-pass/Multi-pass; VBR = Single-pass/Multi-pass
Frame size: Depends on input format
Frame rate: Depends on input format
Virtual multi-pass encoding [VMPE]: Performs multiple quantization passes in real-time during each encoding pass
Bitrate: Max = 16Mbps
DVD player bugs avoidance: Against some hidden violations within particular DVD players
Advanced adaptive quantize matrix [AAQM] / Advanced adaptive GOP structure [AAGS]: Automatically optimizes for the best quantize matrix and GOP structure for each GOP
Filters: Horizontal/Vertical and Y/C independent - LPF: Low pass filter; HGF: High gain filter; Non-linear filter (Proprietary algorithm)
Interlased/Progressive automatic detection: Adaptive switches between interraced and progressive; applies to 2:2 pulldown detection for PAL also
3:2 pulldown detection: Highly accurate automatic 3:2 pulldown detection; Automatic 2-pass inverse 3:2 pulldown; Rich editing and calculator for manual cadence correction
Segment re-encoding [SRE] Preview: Re-encodes just a segment you specify; preview your tweaking before encoding

Video decoding

Output interface - Digital: SDI (1/BNCx1); Analog: Y/C (1/BNCx2) and Composite (1/BNCx1)
Real-time monitoring and playback: Shows decoding on both external monitor and VGA monitor; Encoding and decoding simultaneously; Multi-mode playback
