 mediaHUB HD is a real-time, broadcast-quality MPEG 2 High Definition 1080i and 720P encoder. It was designed for contribution, distribution and studio applications. HDSDI (SD and HD) video input is standard along with Composite (SD) and an optional Firewire (SD) video input. Audio support includes multiple stereo MPEG Layer 2 and Dolby Digital audio encoding with optional Dolby 5.1 and Dolby E pass-though. Control 9 Pin RS422 (Sony Protocol) devices frame accurately for studio applications or operate the encoder in a 24x7x365 mode for distribution with constant capture. MediaHUB HD includes an HD-capable decoder and 750GB hard drive that provides a frame-accurate capture of files for studio applications, or provides and maintains a constant capture of your broadcast. It can even be used for High Definition time-delay applications.

Applications
Distribution: Live 24x7x365 distribution for ATSC, DVB or simple MPEG systems.
Contribution: Contribute Standard Definition MPEG 2 420 or 422 or High Definition 1080i and 720P.
Live Program Acquisition: Encode long form material via schedule or interface via serial, Ethernet or GPI control.
Multimedia: Create files that provide the best quality playback on Adtec and other high-definition digital media players, servers or Blue Ray DVD *.
Ad Insertion and VOD: Encode content from tape or directly from Final Cut, Adobe Premier, Sony XPRI, Avid or other NLEs for analog ad insertion, digital program insertion (DPI) and video on demand (VOD). Cable Labs Compliant.
Studio: Use mediaHUB-HD for real time encoding of content from NLE timelines. No need to roll to tape, then encode.
Time Delay: Capture live - delay and rebroadcast HD or SD content for time delay applications.

Benefits
SDI Plug and Encode: Auto detect of SDI signals is standard.
Configure: Rapidly and accurately configure mediaHUB-HD via the front panel key pad and LCD or with the included mediaControl cross platform Java GUI.
Studio encode with less work: mediaHUB HD is designed to make the tedious task of encoding more streamlined and accurate. In three simple steps, you select your source material, encode and review while mediaHUB HD transfers the approved file where you want it automatically.
Get the highest quality MPEG 2 HD: When it comes to the best on-air look, mediaHUB-HD delivers with excellent quality Standard and High Definition video.
Control with accuracy: mediaHUB HD can control VTR sources from RS-422 and FireWire for accurate mark in/out of material to ensure that you get what you want
Encode from NLE: Frame accurately* encode NLE timeline projects directly to mediaHUB-HD without rolling to tape.
*Some NLEs will not provide frame accuracy.
Create DPI-ready files: Whether you currently splice local content into a digital transport stream or you are planning for DPI in the future, mediaHUB HD can create files that work in switched SDI, analog ad insertion and Standard and High Definition DPI ad servers from Adtec or other vendors.
Encode for the Enterprise: mediaHUB HD interoperates with Adtec's ad insertion enterprise server, adManage. As a content management server, adManage provides mediaHUB-HD with a prioritized list of commercials scheduled for ad insertion. Once the file is encoded and accepted, the adManage database is updated with valuable metadata including actual duration, ingest time, operator and optional expiration date. Compliant with Cable Labs
VOD content standards.
Confidence decode: Real-time confidence decode of the material lets you immediately see and hear what you are contributing, distributing or studio capturing with control to switch audio channels, abort and re-encode right away. After content is encoded to file, it can also be reviewed as many times as you want before final approval and transfer.
Constant Capture: Automatically capture files in user defined segment lengths for archival.
Monitor: SNMP monitoring, front panel LED and LCD visual alarms, and event logging are standard.

Studio Applications:
mediaHUB HD is a real-time High Definition MPEG 2 video, MPEG and Dolby Digital audio encoder. With the ability to capture High Definition or Standard Definition video and multiple stereo audio streams in real-time from tape or NLE. mediaHUB HD allows users to view a live confidence decode of the video as well as audio track selection while capturing. The decoders advanced scaler provides up and down conversion of the encoded video to match the decode monitors resolution. When capture is completed, mediaHUB HD provides review, accept and many transfer options. Transfers can be made to the local host computer, a remote FTP server and directly to one or many Adtec or other video servers. mediaHUB HD includes frame accurate control of professional VTRs over serial RS-422 and VTRÕs or NLEÕs via the optional standard definition FireWire module.
ATSC, DVB and MPEG Distribution Applications:
Distribute excellent quality video and audio 24x7x365 with a constant capture of the distribution service. The user can define the record duration for each segment of the constant capture up to a maximum of 23:59:50:29 frames. Constant Capture can be used in HD or SD mode. Encoder redundancy options include 1+1 or n+1 when using AdtecÕs DTA-3050. The DTA also supports real time dynamic ATSC PSIP and DVB Table support including EIT.
Contribution Applications:
Set the encoder for SD MPEG 2 422 (422P@ML), SD 420 (MP@ML) or HD 1080i or 720P and egress the MPEG2 Transport Stream via ASI or IP, all while maintaining a live decode and constant capture of your valuable contribution feed.
