Intelligent three-way functionality for Windows and Mac OS

Smart Scan Conversion
Use TwinPact100 to scan convert on-screen graphics to analog and digital video. TwinPact100 supports scan conversion of resolutions up to 1600 x 1200

Scan convert any selected on-screen area with Canopus Track and Zoom Technology. Track, zoom-in and output to video any application window, any desktop area or dynamically track the area around the mouse pointer. Track and Zoom is ideal for sharper video presentations and creating focused tutorial videos

TwinPact100 includes an infrared remote control unit as well as Windows and Mac OS controller software which feature:

• Screen pan, zoom and area selection control

• Input select (RGB, DV, analog) select

• Brightness, contrast, saturation and sharpness control

• Flicker filter switchOverscan / underscan switch

• Test pattern output

Digital Video Capture of On-screen Graphics
When used with an OHCI (FireWire) equipped computer, TwinPact100 can capture any selected on-screen graphics to smooth, high-quality DV. Unique selective scan conversion and capture-to-DV makes TwinPact100 an ideal choice for computer training video production or archiving web and DVD video to DV.

Bi-directional Analog / Digital Video Conversion
TwinPact100 is an extremely high-quality, bi-directional analog / digital video converter. TwinPact100 will convert VHS, S-VHS and Hi8 analog videotapes to DV and back in one simple step and can be used with virtually any Windows or Mac OS video editing system, or as a stand-alone converter without needing a computer.

Proven DV Codec Technology
At the heart of the TwinPact100 is Canopus 's proprietary DV codec chip providing the industry's best picture quality preservation during analog-to-DV and
DV-to-analog conversion.

Clean and Enhance Analog Video

TwinPact100 employs advanced 3D Y/C separation and 3D noise reduction
functions for enhancing analog video quality. Poor analog source video is filtered prior to DV conversion to provide better quality video.

Advanced Image Enhancement Features

2D/3D Y/C separation – Separates the Y/C (S-Video) signal to RGB using chronological information between signals (applicable for NTSC only)

Separates brightness (y) and color (c) signals to provide cleaner video ON OFF

Digital 3D noise reduction – Eliminates noise in the analog video signal by detecting noise based on the characteristics

Removes any sudden noise by comparing previous and subsequent frames


ON

OFF

Digital 3D frame synchronizer – Stores incoming signals into a frame buffer to supply a stable, synchronized signal to the DV encoder chip

Cleans and stabilizes old analog videotapes

Digital 3D noise reduction – Eliminates noise in the analog video signal by detecting noise based on the characteristics

Locked Audio Support
Other converters can lose audio/video sync when converting longer segments of video. TwinPact100 supports locked audio when converting from analog to digital, assuring perfect audio and video synchronization.
