DrasticPreview™ and Preview PRO™

Does your broadcast or production facility collaborate using uncompressed SD/HD/2K/4K media? DrasticPreview™ allows you to use inexpensive VGA/DVI monitors to preview or display these files. This capability eases the bottleneck created by the limited availability of expensive high resolution monitoring equipment and allows your team to focus on the project at hand.

DrasticPreview is the basic version, providing VGA/DVI playback for a wide range of files and displaying real time/static data, metadata and other file related information. Preview PRO adds a number of other features including cuts only editing, playlist/EDL support, network and RS-422 serial support, and audio/video setup controls.

SyncControl™

For the facility with multiple Drastic DDRs or Drastic DDR software installs including QuickClip and MediaNXS, we offer SyncControl™ for network-based remote control over start capture and start playback.

SyncControl
allows capture operations to be synchronized between multiple DDRs, so that multiple files share the same time code duration and start frame. Media files present in the devices being controlled may be viewed in sync or offset, for display and monitoring applications.
