Processor Options - Sony XVS Series Technical Manual

Processor
The processor supports native HD operation in both 1080/50i and 50P formats. An additional software licence is
necessary to enable UHD (4K) operation on a per M/E basis. In UHD mode the XVS can operate in either 2SI or SQD
standard at 3840 x 2160/50P resolution. Each M/E processor board provides 8 full-function keyers, and can be
configured in either normal or split mode, i.e. one M/E with 8 keyers or 2 M/Es each with 4 keyers (HD only), this is
user selectable on a pgm by pgm basis. Redundant power supplies are also fitted as standard.
Each processor can also be configured with the following options:
• Up to 2 (XVS-6000), 3 (XVS-7000) or 5 (XVS-8000 &
9000) M/E processor boards
• Mix & match choice of IP, SDI (3G) or SDI (12G) interfac-
ing, configurable slot by slot
• Up to 64 (XVS-6000), 112 (XVS-7000) or 160 (XVS-8000
& 9000) physical inputs, input expansion in groups of
16 (HD mode)
• Up to 24 (XVS-6000), 48 (XVS-7000 & 8000), or 80
(XVS-9000) physical outputs (HD mode)
• Two multiviewer outputs (XVS-6000, 7000 & 8000).
Four multiviewer outputs (XVS-9000) with 4, 10, 13 or 16
pane display
• Frame memory system with onboard storage of ap-
proximately 55,000 images, 20 output channels
(HD mode)
• 3D effects processor (DME) – up to 4 channels in HD (all
models). In UHD 1 channel (XVS-6000), 2 channels (XVS-
7000 & 8000) or 4 channels (XVS-9000)
• Format conversion and/or colour correction available
on designated inputs (XVS-6000, 7000 & 8000)
• Alternatively, input/output format conversion can be
achieved via an internally routable board (XVS-6000,
7000 & 8000)
• Input and Output format conversion available on all
Inputs and Outputs on XVS-9000 (SDI mode)
• Colour correction on all Aux bus outputs
• Multi-Program 2 Software option to further split each
M/E to provide dual bank operation from single M/E
(HD mode)
