CD-ROM offers real advantages over tape including high
picture quality and random access. We use the latest
hard and software available to ensure that the CD title
contains video and audio of the highest possible
standards. We are equipped with the latest compression
technology.
With you we'll determine If you need MPEG-1, MPEG-2,
Constant Bit Rate or Variable Bit Rate encoding. Video
Encoding: MPEG-1 MPEG-2 525 (NTSC) or 625 (PAL) Line
Systems VBR (2 pass) CBR 16:9 and 4:3 Aspect Ratios
Digital tape formats D-1, D-2, Digital Betacam, DV,
DVCAM Digital source tapes are fed directly to the
digital input of the encoder; bypassing digital to
analogue conversions. Analogue tape formats Beta SP, One
inch, 3/4 SP, Hi8, SVHS Analogue source tapes are fed
through a component TBC with noise reduction circuitry
before feeding into the encoder. Audio Dolby Digital
AC-3 stereo encoding will be used unless otherwise
specified. MPEG-1 layer 2 audio encoding is available at
no extra charge. Audio must be supplied on the audio
track of the supplied master videotape. Audio on DAT can
be accepted only if tape has matching time code from
video source. Wide screen 16:9 encoding is available.
Quality: MPEG-1, has picture resolution around that of
good quality VHS tape. It’s nearly as good as S-Video.
The key advantage is that MPEG1 can be played back in
full screen at full frame rate on any standard Windows
or Macintosh machine with a 160 mhz processor or faster,
using the standard media player tool. Our best format,
DVD, is equivalent to broadcast-quality Betacam SP. With
a little planning on your part, we can make it easy for
your viewers to go to the specific scene they want to
see without the frustrating Fast-Forward/Play/Oops
procedure of video tape. Convenience: It would probably
be safe to say that there are more computers with CD-ROM
drives and speakers in your office than there are VHS
machines. The video files can even be played from your
network server, network administration permitting. |
