Proxy Data Recording*
Mount an AJ-YAX800G Proxy Encode Card, and the AJ-SPX900 and
AJ-SPX800 record MPEG4 proxy (low-resolution) data — useful for
news flash or other studio news system use — onto the card along
with the full-resolution data. The three levels of proxy video are
available: 1.5Mbps, 768kbps or 192kbps. Proxy data can also be
recorded onto an SD Memory Card mounted in the slot provided, for
easy viewing on a laptop PC. The encode card, available as an option,
lets you upgrade as future image encode systems evolve.
*Proxy data is AV data with low-resolution MPEG4 video and audio containing time code,
metadata, and other control information.
