1126.0. "25 *Frames*/sec PAL I/O?" by NETRIX::"[email protected]" (peter ) Wed Mar 05 1997 07:34


  Hi!

  We have a potential customer in Spain who is looking for 25
  *frames*/sec PAL video input and output. This does not seem to be
  given by the specs for either the AV301 or the AV321.

  a: is there anything in DEC's Multi-Media hardware pipeline ? or
  b: is there a likely (and affordable ;-) 3rd party   or
  c: will the problem go away with the new Alpha-chip Multi-Media
     extensions ?

  BTW. Is c: the reason why this notesfile is so quiet?


  Thanks,

Most of Digital's multimedia offerings, particularly video
capture, are discussed in the BGSDEV::Multimedia_Services
conference.

The AV301 and AV321 will both do 50 fields/sec capture in
PAL and SECAM.  This requires software deinterlace of the
fields to get frames if you really have to have frames
(frame processing is often `bad' for a variety of reasons).

If you've got followup questions, ask them in the Multimedia
Services conference.
