April 16, 2004 -- The deterioration of tape makes it necessary for video facilities to transfer ¾” U-matic, Betacam, SVHS, Hi-8 and other common formats to a digital based format. The Baystor BK-2500 is an easy-to-use archiving system, which allows you to transfer these items to the more stable DVD format and still retain the original VBI information such as Closed Caption, SMPTE timecode and teletext. Baystor is the only company to patent the process allowing the transfer of VBI information for DVD, MPEG2 and DV25 recording and playback. The BK-2500 hard disk can store 10 hours of DV-25 quality video and audio and can be used as a desktop or rack-mountable unit. Outfitted with composite, component, Y/C, IEEE1394, DV25, SDI/AES and balanced/unbalanced audio inputs and outputs, the BK-2500 interfaces with all popular video equipment. In addition, the BK-2500 supports genlock as well as RS-422 control of both the hard drive and DVD player. TCP/IP LAN networking capabilities offer the additional value of file sharing and easily transferring files.



The BK-2500 provides these unique hard disk/DVD features and more at an affordable price. It’s an excellent choice for implementing NEW disk/DVD-based technology into an existing facility and is software upgradeable, to grow with your organization. Exciting new features and enhancements will be announced at NAB.
