RSPE Audio Solutions, Los Angeles Premier Pro Audio Dealer

Our VIDEO STREAMER is a replacement for traditional methods of providing cues with film which involve pre-listen heads and chinagraph pencil wipes, punch frames, etc for visual and audio cues.

It combines all the facilities of our TCR Reader/ Generator/ Inserter to provide a powerful and flexible PostProduction Cueing System.

In addition to our standard four-video insertions derived from Timecode or Film Time/Footage conversions Streamer also generates a VIDEO WIPE in the form of a vertical which wipes across the screen and is selectable from 6 different styles.

Additionally a '3:2:1: +' NUMERIC VIDEO Count Down/Up may be selected. An audible BEEP cue is also generated as an alternative artist cue and or musician's METRONOME.

The cues may be triggered in three different ways :-

The internal cue list may be generated in different ways:-

Streamer's metronome facility allows click tracks and cues to be programmed in TEMPO, defined as Frames & 1/8ths per Beat or Beats per Minute, with a resolution of 1/8th FRAME. Beats-In, (pre-roll to START CUE), is selectable from 1 to 16 beats and the speed and duration of ensuing Wipes is then determined by the TEMPO and BEATS-IN pre set for each individual cue.

The standard unit comes complete with Audio Trigger input and four Opto Isolated Inputs to facilitate Cue List generation and Wipe/Event enables from remote sources as well as a separate insertion of a Record and Lock Indication in the video.

VSO-1, Our optional Relay Pcb, provides eight assignable relay closures to trigger external events

VIDEO STREAMER's integral cue list holds up to 500 Start/Stop Loop Cues and these may be created On-The-Fly via a single key depression. Cues may be edited On-Line and the Battery Backed Cue List may also be saved to and loaded from an external PC via the 9 pin RS 232 port.

Cue lists may also be generated on an Off-Line PC, either manually or automatically using our ED-2 EDL TAKER software and loaded into Streamer for a Post session via the VS-Link software. VS-link is a free application program supplied with the Video Streamer. The VS-Link software will accept cues in many formats including text files, EDL lists and taker files. The VS-Link software may be modified to include other standard formats as they arrive.
