    9025TR Series Film Footage Encoders Manual OVERVIEW The Evertz Film post production system is designed to simplify the management of your film to tape transfers for both standard definition and high definition video. At the heart of the system is the 9025TR Film Footage Encoder that is available in three different versions to provide the user with the optimal price/performance combination for his particular application.

    KeyKode data into the high definition video directly without down conversion. The Evertz KeyLog Tracker software allows the user to store multiple configurations for both the 9025TR Film Footage Encoders and the Afterburners. When using the HDSD9025TR, a simple on screen control in the Tracker software performs switching between video resolutions.

    A frame at the output (called the A frame candidate). This 6 Hz pulse must be coincident with the start of an input frame and can be generated using the Evertz 7700SRG-HD Slave Reference Generator module. The output of the A frame candidate frame will start four input frames later and will consist of two video fields.
