  • Telestream Pipeline Evaluation – June 2011

    Summary:

    Pipeline Network Video Capture Appliances

    For the last two months, I’ve spent some “quality time” with the Telestream Pipeline network Video Capture appliance.
    Pipeline is an industry-first network-based video capture and playout device for moving SD & HD SDI video & audio in and out of Mac & PC file-based workflows. Telestream Pipeline offer a choice of encoding formats in a single box to handle your changing format needs. SD models encode to DV25, DVCPRO25, IMX, ProRes 422 and MPEG-2 I-frame. The HD model encodes to these plus DNxHD, DVCPRO HD and ProRes 422 HQ formats.

     

    Testing various video sources from AJA Video Systems and Panasonic, whether tapeless or tape based, was effortless and transparent to operate Pipeline. Time is money and Pipeline delivers up to four channels of encoding density in just 1 Rack Unit!

    Be patient while downloading as the file is fairly large in size…
