The T2 HD iDDR is the latest addition to the Grass Valley family of
Intelligent Digital Disk Recorders (iDDRs). The iDDR is a new class of
VTR replacement that leverages the digital storage, networking, and
media-management capabilities of our Emmy® Award-winning video servers.
The T2 intelligent digital disk recorder (iDDR) brings full
high-definition capture and playback to the video professional.
Additionally, the T2 HD iDDR works with standard-definition video and
may be
controlled from other production devices such as the Indigo A/V mixer.
The T2 iDDR is a complete and selfcontained SD and HD audio/
video playout center. The front-panel transport controls are designed to
look and feel very much like those of traditional VTRs and its two
output channels support standard- or high-definition content. The crisp,
clear LCD front panel can display high-quality images and is
complemented by a software application suite for managing and selecting
media clips, clip editing and trimming, and playout including playlist
creation. Featuring extensive rear-panel audio / video connectivity, the
T2 iDDR can also accept files via USB 2.0, or by data transfer over a
standard gigabit Ethernet network. The T2 HD iDDR also accepts media
from other applications, including HQAVI, MPEG-2, QuickTime, and Windows
Media Video HD files. With the T2 iDDR, users can exchange content at
high speed over a network or via removable media, such as SSD through
USB, FireWire (IEEE 1394), or the dedicated 2.5-inch HDD/SSD slot.
Further, the T2 iDDR can be controlled by our Indigo A/V mixer-which
combines features normally found in video production switchers,
presentation mixers, and audio mixers-to create a powerful presentation
system. The T2 iDDR has two playout channels for independent editing and
previewing, or for delivering content to two different display systems
simultaneously. The T2 iDDR has also been engineered to seamlessly
integrate with Grass Valley EDIUS ® nonlinear editing software.source
