To avoid this phenomenon and provide a stable output picture, EVS developed 2 types of line interpolator: 2-line and 4-line interpolators. The interpolation process can be enabled or disabled by the operator on all EVS slow motion systems.
  • Page 39 The interpolator is of course always disabled at 100% playback speed, because there is no parity violation. EVS uses the same techniques with the Super Slow Motion disk recorder, working with all models of Super Motion cameras (150/180 Hz). The only difference between the...

    The XNet2 requires a network server dedicated to the management of the database shared among all EVS video servers. This is assigned to one of the EVS servers on the network. The EVS server acting as the network server can of course be used for standard server operations.
  • Page 51: Network Architectures

    5.6.2. Network Architectures Introduction To set up an XNet network, EVS servers may be connected directly in a closed loop architecture. Using a dedicated hub, they may be connected in a star architecture as illustrated in the following figure. NOTE With an SDTI network of 3Gbps, XHub v4.00 only is supported.
  • Page 52: Required Conditions To Set Up And Run Xnet

    Required Conditions to Set up and Run XNet 1. All systems on the network shall belong to the XT3, XS3, XT4K, XS4K servers, XHub3 devices. 2. The SDTI advanced option code (for network client, master, or server modes) shall be validated in the options list.

On larger setups, both GbE ports of the XT4K servers or/and several ports on the SANs are often used to increase the bandwidth or to allow redundancy. Since both GbE ports of XT4K server cannot be used on the same sub-network, virtual LANs need to be created.
