Pinnacle Systems Unveils Hybrid HD/SD Real-Time Graphics Products
Live and Automated Broadcast Graphics Systems Switch Between HD and
SD Output LAS VEGAS, April 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Pinnacle
Systems(R), Inc. (NASDAQ:PCLE), a leader in digital video
solutions, announced three new real- time graphics products that
switch in software between native high-definition (HD) and native
standard definition (SD) operating modes. Using these new Deko(R)
Hybrid products, broadcasters can support both SD and HD production
needs using a single system and user interface, minimizing
equipment, installation, retraining and production costs while
expanding HD services. Deko 1000/Hybrid and Deko 3000/Hybrid
support a wide variety of live sports, entertainment and newsroom
environments. DekoCast(TM) Hybrid is designed for on-air edge
graphics applications including channel branding, in- program
promotions and advertising, sophisticated credit sequences, weather
and other data-driven alerts. All three hybrid products generate
graphics, process video and deliver output for native NTSC / PAL SD
resolutions and native 720 / 1080 HD resolutions. "Our new hybrid
real-time graphics products illustrate our solid commitment to help
broadcasters efficiently deliver compelling HD programming, build
brands and strengthen audience relationships," said Matt
Danilowicz, vice president and general manager of Broadcast at
Pinnacle. "These products simplify both the economy and workflow of
graphics production during the HD transition." In an SD/HD world,
broadcasters must contend with multiple versions of their graphics
assets. Deko 1000/Hybrid and Deko 3000/Hybrid dramatically simplify
management with tools to simplify the process of working with 4:3
and 16:9 aspect ratio elements and layouts. In addition, the
upcoming Deko software version 4.0 includes a unique multi-compose
and multi-store technology that will allow users to create a single
file that includes both HD and SD page layouts, further simplifying
management while enabling them to take full advantage of the
additional resolution and screen space available in HD. At
air-time, Deko will automatically select the correct version of the
graphic based on the current video output format. All hybrid models
deliver the full functionality of their single format counterparts.
For example, Deko 3000/Hybrid delivers the feature set of Deko 3000
when in SD mode and the feature set of Deko 3000 HD when in HD
mode. Availability Deko 1000/Hybrid and Deko 3000/Hybrid are
expected to be available in June 2005 and to be available in a
single or dual channel configuration. DekoCast Hybrid is expected
to be available fall 2005. The complete Pinnacle broadcast product
family will be on display during the National Association of
Broadcasters (NAB) industry convention at the Las Vegas Convention
Center in Pinnacle's booth #SU6341 from April 18-21, 2005. About
