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. Throughout this manual the term 9025TR will
be used to describe the Film Footage encoders when describing common features. When necessary, the
specific model numbers will be used to distinguish features only available on some models.

Under control of the powerful KeyLog TRACKER™ software, the 9025TR Film Footage encoders permit
the seamless integration of video and audio time codes, film KeyKode and production information whether
you are transferring to 25 or 30Fps standard definition video, or to 24, 25 or 30Fps high definition video.
During the transfer, KeyLog TRACKER™, Evertz telecine logging and configuration management tool logs
the relationships between these important parameters and outputs many industry standard interchange file
formats for use by off-line editing systems.
In standard definition mode, the HDSD9025TR and SD9025TR encode the time codes and KeyKode into
industry standard SMPTE RP201 3-line VITC on one SDI output, and provides separate SDI and analog
outputs with burned in characters for offline editing copies. In high definition mode, the HDSD9025TR and
HD9025TR encode the time codes, KeyKode and production information into industry standard SMPTE
RP215 vertical ancillary (VANC) data packets. Separate LTC inputs and outputs for the audio and video
time codes, allows handling of mixed film rate and video rate time codes. The programmable telecine
interface allows the encoder to interface to a wide variety of telecine configurations.
The HDSD9025DDR multi resolution Film post production system is designed to improve the throughput of
your film to tape transfers by utilizing digital hard disk recorders (DDR). Complete rolls of film are
transferred with little or no colour correction, and without time consuming audio syncing, to a DDR. During
this process KeyKode information is encoded into the VANC data space using a 9025 series Film Footage
Encoder.
For DDRs that support recording at one speed and playout at another, the film can be
transferred at 30 FPS realizing an immediate 25% increase in throughput in the telecine bay. In a
separate colour correction suite the DDR becomes a virtual telecine source during colour correction and
audio syncing. KeyKode information recorded on the DDR is recovered by the HDSD9025DDR before it is
removed by the colour corrector. The recovered KeyKode, video and audio time codes, and production
data associated with the material are re-encoded on the colour corrected video before it is recorded on the
master VTR.
The HD9150, HD9155, HD9150Q, and HD9155Q Afterburners are powerful devices designed to facilitate
the creation of off-line tapes from high definition telecine master tapes. The Afterburners downconvert the
HDTV input video to SDI and analog standard definition video. When the input video is in the 1080p/24sF
format the Afterburners also create a 2:3 pulldown on the output video to create a 30Fps output. The
Afterburners read the RP215 film transfer data that was encoded by the HDSD9025TR or HD9025TR
during the telecine transfer and makes burn-in windows. The essential timecode and KeyKode data are
