Datavideo CG100D Character Generator
Datavideo CG100D Character Generator
Based on a Decklink card in a PC, the Datavideo CG-100 software is an affordable CG with exquisite SDI quality. The Decklink card connects to the SDI Overlay/Graphics input on the SE-800 or any video switcher that accepts SDI keyed graphics input.
With this CG software you compose pages before they are used.For example, lower thirds or titles. And you can compose files off line. The CG-100 can hold many pages, limited only by the computer’s processor speed and RAM speed and size. If you have 150-200 pages you will need a faster computer with more storage than if you have 50 pages. Text positioning may be done by mouse/eye or by X/Y pixel designation.
The CG-100 will work with any video switcher that accepts the SDI video and key signal coming from the Decklink Card. The CG-100 software requires use of the drivers included with the software.
