Page 9: Functional Summary
Functional summary Signal sources The MPEG4000-D4 is designed to capture and record from up to four separate and unrelated video sources simultaneously. Each of the four video input channels of the MPEG4000-D4 features a video frame grabber and an audio digitizer. Each frame grabber contains a digital NTSC/PAL video and each video channel has an associated audio input. - Page 10 Audio data which is part of the original recording is also decoded and played back in synchronisation with the video. In addition to playback to the system display VGA device, the MPEG4000-D4 also provides a composite NTSC/PAL playback output suitable for directly driving a PAL/NTSC or RS170 display device.
- Page 11 -Plus The MPEG4000-D4 has a full 32-bit PC/104 (PCI Rev 2.1) 3.3v host interface to the host computer. On board jumpers allow the MPEG4000-D4 to be configured -Plus for any of the 4 logical PC/104 stack levels of the host computer.

Page 22: Recording Options
Recording options Multi-channel recording modes The MPEG4000-D4 can perform recording of up to four channels at full resolution during multi-channel recording at a configurable frame rates. There is the option to record only video or both video and audio. Video from the four frame grabber channels A, B, C and D is recorded as 4 separate and individual streams. -

CBR therefore does not guarantee that the bit rate in practice will be exactly as set – the MPEG4000-D4 simply does its best to achieve the set CBR figure. The real life bit rate when in CBR mode will depend on the incoming video, motion and other environmental factors. - Page 24 Increase the I picture interval NOTE: THESE OPTIONS MIGHT NOT BE AVAILABLE UNDER CBR. IN CBR, QUANTIZATION VALUE IS CONTROLLED BY THE MPEG4000-D4 TO MEET THE SET BIT RATE ONCE THE PICTURE SIZE, FRAME RATE AND I PICTURE INTERVAL ARE FIXED.
