Blackmagic Design Inc.
today announced that its popular range of DeckLink cards are
the only video capture
cards available to enable two Softron MovieRecorder applications
running on a single MacPro workstation to simultaneously capture
video from two different sources. Using a MacPro coupled with
two DeckLink cards and two applications of Softron MovieRecorder
significantly enhances any facility's ingest capabilities.

"MovieRecorder greatly enhances
any facility's ingest capabilities and does so at an incredibly
low infrastructure investment, in many instances, using available
hardware, said Mike Skibra, Softron Media Services, Business
Development Manager. This is because a single MacPro workstation,
coupled with two DeckLink cards and two applications of MovieRecorder,
running in a shared storage environment, can give multiple users
access to the recording station and the recorded media without
the need to purchase additional hardware devices at significantly
higher cost."
MovieRecorder is used in numerous facilities
around the world ranging from news and sports broadcasters,
educational institutions, religious broadcasters and post
production facilities.
Professionals at every level are going
to love the fact that they can use their DeckLink card with
MovieRecorder to simultaneously capture video from two different
sources, said Dan May, President, Blackmagic Design,
Inc. We are very pleased to support such a versatile
and powerful application as MovieRecorder, making available
another excellent tool to facilitate our customers' creativity
and production.
